Kimberly Auton Pritchett was born May 21, 1964. She went to be with her Lord and Savior on, August 27, 2023, after a courageous battle with Uterine Sarcoma. She was preceded in death by her husband A. Candler Pritchett, III, her parents Dennis Richard Dingle, Jr. And Marian Hawkins Dingle and her brother Danny Dingle. Kim was born in Jacksonville, Florida and was a 1982 graduate of Terry Parker High School. After high school she attend FSCJ to study nursing. She moved to Atlanta, Georgia in 1988 where she enjoyed raising her beautiful family. Kim’s life mission was to teach her children about God’s steadfast love for them. Her heart was overjoyed as they each trusted in the Lord Jesus Christ as their Savior. Her commitment never waned as she woke them early each Sunday so they could be discipled in small groups and worship at church. She would play taxi and pick up all their friends to take them to Wednesday night church so they could hear the truth of God’s word spoken over them. No price was too high to have her children mentored in God’s ways. But God also gave Kim a special wisdom to share with her children. She would spend countless hours pouring into them and encouraging them to stay the course. No greater joy did Kim have than the role of mother. Kim’s love for children led her to open a very successful in-home daycare in 2007 where many happy parents brought their children for exceptional care. Those tiny hearts were loved and nurtured with the greatest tending. Parents were pleased with the love and affection that Miss Kim bestowed on their children. Kim never knew a stranger. She had a communication gift that was electric. She drew people together and enjoyed life to its fullest. The testimony to this was the droves of friends who stopped by to see her for days after the news of her final prognosis was made known. Kim was well loved because she loved and invested in the lives of so many. She will be dearly missed by family and friends. Kim is survived by her son Bryan Auton (Kaley), daughter Ashley Murton (Luke), son Logan Pritchett, and daughter Laci Pritchett. Eleven grandchildren: Bryley Auton, Bracen Auton, Baptist Auton, Bravery Auton, Braham Auton, Brevity Auton, Boyce Auton, Banner Auton, Brightyn Auton, Natalee Murton and Scarlett Murton.
