She liked berry picking, loved gardening, and loved the whole process of jarring and canning from anything to salsa, jam, jelly, pickles, cowboy candy, cowgirl candy and tomato juice. Kim also loved getting up at 5 am to start preparing for holiday dinners, usually for about twenty five people. She really enjoyed cooking from scratch homemade dishes for anyone who could use help. She enjoyed making homemade candy for all of her bartenders family and closest of friends. Most importantly though, she loved being a grandma. She truly lived her life for her grandchildren.
