Kimberly Michelle Beaumont

Kimberly Michelle Beaumont, 56, of Van Buren, surrendered her life to the Lord on Monday, January 18, 2021 after a 5-year battle with cancer. She was born June 29, 1964 in Fort Smith, the daughter of Thurman "Gene" White and Judi Bayhylle.

Kim will be remembered for her love of Jesus, her great fashion, and her ability to craft and create beautiful gifts for her friends and family. She loved to travel, shop, and spend time out doing things – she could never sit still. She will be sorely missed by all who knew her. We are thankful for the life she lived even though it was shortened due to the cancer – her legacy will live on in her children and future grandson.

She was preceded in death by a grandfather, Thurman F. White; her great-grandparents, Herbert and Bessie Shelly; a niece, Tessa Scott; and her stepfather, Neill Bayhylle.

She is survived by her husband, Andre Arnoldi of the home; two daughters, Aislinn Blankenship and husband Samuel and future grandson, baby Blankenship of Springdale, and Evangeline Beaumont of Rogers; a son, Merrick Beaumont of Bentonville; her parents, Judi Bayhylle of Sallisaw, and Gene White and wife Donna of Van Buren; a sister, Tami Scott and husband Steve of Texas; her grandmother, Druscilla White of Van Buren; two nephews, Pierce Scott and wife Kylie of Rogers, and Saxon Scott and wife Abby of Farmington; a great-niece, and two great-nephews.

Graveside service will be 2:00 p.m. Friday, January 22, 2021 at Alma City Cemetery, under the direction of Edwards Van-Alma Funeral Home of Van Buren, AR. Samuel Blankenship will lead the service.
