Kimberly Lynn Wiedbusch passed away on November 7, 2026, at the age of 67, following a long, hard, and courageous battle with cancer. She spent her final moments at home, surrounded by the love and comfort of her family and closest friends. Though her time here was far too short, the love she gave and the beautiful memories she created will live on forever.
Born on October 10, 1959, in Flint, Michigan, to Larry and Carol Clink, Kim was the eldest of four children. She graduated from Flint Northern High School in 1977 and began her career at St. Joseph’s Hospital at just 18 years old. She continued her work as a unit clerk through its transition to Genesys, enjoying more than 30 wonderful years in a career she truly loved. Along the way, she formed many cherished friendships with coworkers who became so much more than colleagues, filling her years with laughter, love, and memories she held dear.
In 1981, Kim married her young love, Joe Kuehl, and in May 1988, welcomed the greatest joy of her life, her daughter, Krista. Being Krista’s mom was Kim’s proudest accomplishment and greatest blessing. Krista was her sunshine, her whole world, and her very best friend. Their bond was truly one of a kind, filled with unconditional love, laughter, and a lifetime of memories that will forever be treasured.
Kim found love again with Tony Wiedbusch, whom she married in September 2010. Together, they shared a beautiful chapter of life filled with love and cherished memories.
Kim found so much happiness in the simple pleasures of life, especially the beautiful days spent on Lobdell Lake. She loved being out on the boat, soaking up the sunshine, and spending countless hours tending to her flowers and gardens.
Kim was a talented crocheter, a lover of live concerts, and a devoted Detroit Lions fan. She also had a wonderfully rebellious side, especially when it came to her beloved Corvette Z06, which she proudly watched being built. Nothing made her smile quite like cruising down Woodward with the top down or taking a drive down the bricks. She also had an enormous love for her many spoiled pups over the years, especially Allie, Bella, and Kimba, whom we know she is joyfully reunited with.
Kim’s heart extended far beyond her immediate family. She loved Krista’s lifelong best friends, Kayci Hockin and Nikki Hurley, as her bonus daughters, and Kayci’s children, Damien, Layla, and Ryleigh, as her own grandchildren. Those three brought her endless joy, love, and pride. She also treasured her dear friends, Brad and Gwen Cole, whose unwavering love and friendship meant the world to her. Her family will forever be grateful for the kindness and devotion they showed Kim.
A woman of deep and unwavering faith, Kim walked closely with God throughout her life. “Believe” was more than just a word to Kim; it was something she held close to her heart and lived by every single day. Her faith was her foundation and gave her strength, courage, and hope through even the most difficult days of her battle.
Kim was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Tony Wiedbusch; her parents, Larry and Carol Clink; and her grandparents, Ralph and Doris Clink and Ken and Luella Gillan.
She leaves behind her greatest pride and joy, her daughter, Krista Kuehl; her siblings, Scott (Robin) Clink, Cheryl Clink, and Jeff Clink; her cherished bonus daughters and grandchildren; her treasured friends; and many others who were blessed to know and love her.
The family extends their heartfelt gratitude to The Oaks at Woodfield, Residential Homecare Hospice, and the compassionate doctors and nurses at the Rogel Cancer Center at the University of Michigan Hospital for their kindness, dedication, and care.
If there is one thing Kim’s life taught those around her, it is to love with your whole heart, find joy in the little things, hold tightly to your faith, and never waste a beautiful sunny day. Throughout her long and difficult battle, Kim showed a strength that was nothing short of remarkable. No matter how much pain she endured, she never let it show, choosing instead to smile, stay positive, and focus on the people she loved. Even on her hardest days, her greatest concern was always for those around her. She gave so much of herself to others, right up until the very end. And while her absence will be felt beyond words, the love she leaves behind will remain in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to be part of her life.
Memorial service will be held 2pm Saturday November 14, 2026, at the Swartz Funeral Home, 1225 West Hill Road, Flint.
Visitation 12pm Saturday until the time of the service at the funeral home.
