Lori L. Kimm of Norway was called home by the Lord on May 9, 2026, at Colonial Manor in Amana after a brief battle with cancer.

Lori was born in Flint, Michigan, to Duane and Sheila Horton on October 7, 1962, and grew up in Clio, Michigan. She graduated from Clio high school in 1980.  

Lori had a special place in her heart for her grandchildren, and she spent much of her free time with them. She loved all animals, especially dogs, and felt most at peace outdoors. Lori will be remembered for her big heart and the deep love she had for her family and friends.

She is survived by her husband, Thomas Kimm of Norway; her children, Steven Kimm of Norway, Neil (Holly) Kimm of Norway, and Jessy (Chris) Hendrickson of Ely; and her beloved grandchildren, Madisyn, Avery, Garlyn, Wilder, and Kaiya.

She is also survived by her brother, Duane (Heidi) Horton of Clio, Michigan; her sister, Brenda Wagner of Manton, Michigan; and her in-laws, Claudia Kimm of Watkins, Kevin (Sandy) Kimm of Amana, Karen (Dave) Berger of Amana, and Bill Kimm of Williamsburg, along with many nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews.

She was preceded in death by her parents; her sister, Deb; brother-in-law, Norm; brother-in-law Duane Wagner; mother-in-law, Garlyn Kimm; sister-in-law, Debbie Schutterle; and nephew, Dustin Stoddard.

The family would like to extend special thanks to the staff at Colonial Manor and Mercy Hospital for the care and compassion they showed Lori.
