Kim, the daughter of Roy Benton Philpot & Shirley Carrier Philpot, was born Dec. 30, 1962, in Dallas, TX.
She graduated from Prairiland High School in 1980. Her career at the family business, Philpot’s Donuts, began at an early age and continued through 2005. She then began working at Sara Lee and was there until the plant closed. Kim continued working with J. Skinner and remained with that company until the plant closed.
