Wife of Neal, Mother of Miles and Ryan.

Kim unexpectedly passed in her sleep on Friday evening of natural causes while napping in her favorite chair, with her cat Mandu in her lap, her dog Tyson at her feet, surrounded by her family.  She loved silly 'Dad' jokes, animals, her family and friends, infectious giggling, gardening, dancing to all music, feeding people, over decorating for holidays and birthdays, puzzles, collecting laughing Buddha statues, orchids and cherry blossoms among so many other things.

She was loved more than we can express.  She is and will be deeply missed.  She was a truly gentle soul who brought light and warmth into every life that she touched.  This world is a lesser place without her.

She is survived by her husband Neal, her sons Miles and Ryan and her parents Frank and Laura Peais. Kim was an only child and was preceded in death by her beloved grandparents Al and Pauline Pabinguit.

Kim didn't want a service or memorial, just to have her ashes scattered in her favorite meadow by her family.  Causes close to her heart were Autism Research and Juvenile Diabetes Research.  Her family plans to plant cherry trees in remembrance given her love of cherry blossoms.
