Kimberly Ann Campbell of Holdrege, formerly of McCook, passed away Monday, July 2, 2012 at Good Samaritan Hospital in Kearney after a courageous battle with cancer. She was 44 years old.
Kimberly was born on July 23, 1967 in Fullerton, California. At an early age she moved with her family to McCook where she attended McCook Schools.
She was united in marriage to Michael Jon Campbell on January 21, 1999 in McCook. They made their home in McCook before moving to Holdrege where Kimberly was a busy mother and homemaker.
She was an avid coupon shopper and loved to scrapbook. She enjoyed the time spent with her children, grandchildren and her pet sheltie, Sophie. On May 13, 1994 Kim walked into the AA house in McCook and started a new life of sobriety, which she maintained until the time of her passing.

Preceding her in death was her grandfather, Warren Clarence "Clancy" Bales.
