Kimberly Ann Gilham (Yarde), 37

Kimberly Ann Gilham (Yarde), 37, of Kalispell, passed away tragically on June 18.

She was born on July 19, 1985, to Darren Yarde and Melody Coghill in Spokane, Washington.

Growing up, Kimberly loved being outside, camping, playing softball (where she was often called Babe Ruth), and being with her family. She was the smallest in her family, giving her the name Tiny.

Her greatest accomplishment were her children, Andrea, Darrin and Isabella. As well as being married to Chris Gilham. She loved them beyond measure. Being a mom meant more to her than anything, and ensuring that her children were taken care of.

She knew she had found her soul mate and forever love when she met Chris. Together they built a life and family she had always wanted.

Those around her had the pleasure of seeing her beautiful smile and hearing her contagious laugh. She loved family gatherings where you could often be subject to her playful banter and jokes.

She had a way of lighting up rooms and making everyone smile. She always wanted to help everyone and would give you the shirt off her back.

She was predeceased by her father, Darren Dean Yarde; her mother, Melody Ann Coghill; her grandfather, Richard Dale Yarde; her grandmother, Gail Gean Yarde. Her uncles, Dennis Reed and Brian Reed; her grandfather, Frank Coghill; her aunt, Deborah Begeman; her cousin, Wesley Evans; her sister-in-law, Whisper Cellars.
