Kimberly Ann Williams

Kimberly Ann Williams, 55, of Centralia passed away Wednesday, August 31, 2022, at St. Louis University Hospital. She was born on January 8, 1967, the daughter of Kenneth and Judith (Boatwright) Williams in Centralia. 

Survivors that will remember the way Kim could light up a room include her beloved family, sons Curtis and wife Kim Cluck of Centralia, Justin Cluck of Salem, and Ryan and wife Jaysie Cluck of Mt. Vernon; grandchildren Colton, Emerie, Madison, & Charli; brothers James Williams, and Travis Williams; her soul sister Tia; special friend Tony Cluck; aunt Willi Thomas; and uncle Wayne “Chris” Boatwright.

Kim was preceded in death by her parents Kenneth Williams and Judith Boatwright.

Kim always put in a day of hard work while running her cleaning service to beautify other people’s homes. She was an amazing Mom, who was very proud of her sons! Even though her boys tried, they could never get away with anything that she didn’t instinctively know about. Kim was an amazing cook, and everyone raved over her shepherd’s pie, spaghetti, lasagna, and Italian beef. Her good cooking spoiled her grandchildren, who no matter if you would use the same ingredients, making it in Nana’s kitchen it just didn’t taste as good as when Nana made it. Kim loved music, excited to go to Kid Rock concerts with her soul sister Tia, and she could not be disturbed while watching her favorite show The Voice. She loved the thrill of the hunt, looking for treasures to add to her elephant collection in second-hand stores and garage sales. Kim was the ultimate animal lover who devoted her heart to her dogs, her fur babies, Remy and Gunner, sometimes loving them more than her sons. Kim was an incredibly loving, super fun Nana who loved spending time with her grandbabies. Kim was a true friend, proud of her children and grandchildren, who will be remembered forever and deeply missed.
