Kimberly Gardner

She attended a private high school before moving to America to attend college and computer school. Kimberly started her career with EDS (Electronic Data Systems) in 1974.

In 1976, she met the love of her life, Paul. They married in 1979 and later became the parents to two beautiful children, son Sean Kim Gardner and daughter Michelle Christina Gardner.

Kimberly excelled in her career at EDS for 22 years. In 1996, she decided to change careers and opened the “Kimberly’s Fine Art” gallery. Her sweet and caring spirit was clear to everyone she met, and she became well known, loved and successful throughout the Dallas area.

Kimberly retired in 2009 to enjoy more time with her family and a simple life. She loved her flower garden and daily visits to the park to feed the ducks. In 2015, her husband retired and she spent 100% of her time with her soulmate Paul enjoying a wonderful and simple life together, that was heaven on earth.

Beauty radiated from Kimberly, inside and out. She had a sweet smile, warm heart, generous spirit and a hug for everyone. She was a Christian woman, beloved wife, devoted mother and dear sister who loved her family and God.

Kimberly departed this earth on April 24, 2016, and though there is deep loss felt by those she leaves behind, we know Heaven is now a brighter place.

She is survived by her husband of 36 years, Paul Edwin Gardner; son Sean Kim Gardner; daughter Michelle Christina Gardner; brothers Yeon-Su Kim, Gyeong-Su Kim and I-Su Kim; sister In-Suk Kim, and a host of extended family members and friends.

Kimberly was preceded in death by her parents and her sisters Jeong-Suk Kim and Myeong-Suk Kim.
