From there she moved to the Weyburn Junior High School and later graduated from the Weyburn Comprehensive High School. Kim began her post-secondary education at the University of Regina in the department of education and then transferred to SIAST to study early childhood education. Kim loved working with all children but had a special affection for children with special needs. Kim grew up with many family and friends and loved being surrounded by people rather than being alone. Kim drew people to her like a magnet and people in turn enjoyed being in her company. She was a hard worker and had a variety of jobs, from MacDonald’s, Mark’s Work Wearhouse, Hilltop Manor, Co-op, Tatagwa Kids as well as working with her family at the Chuckwagon. Kim loved camping, rendezvous, reading and cross-stitching. She volunteered at Weyburn Family Place, Scouts, Relay for Life and Cancer Jam. In her short life Kim enjoyed a trip to England in 2002, a trip to Mexico with her whole family, her high school graduation in 2008 and the graduation from early childhood education in 2011. One of her more memorable experiences was the final chapter of the “Harry Potter” movie series. Kim was predeceased by her grandfathers, Bill Thorn and Frank Coleman.
