Kim Sue Wolverton

On April 30, 2023, Kim S. Wolverton of Burley, Idaho, left our world to be at peace with our Heavenly Father. She was an amazingly strong woman who was loved by her two children, Jade Robert Spann and Jasmine Lynn Devalera, and her four grandchildren, Dylan Jade Spann Lough, Alexis Jaden Devalera, Koen River Spann, and Ethan Ryan Pearson.

Some parts of her life were even a surprise to me. She was born and raised in Burley, Idaho, by her mom, Barbara Blair, and her father, Gordon Blair. I found this in a scrapbook she owned and thought it would be a perfect dedication to our community.

In life's busy thoroughfares We with Angels unaware But we are too busy to listen or hear Too busy to sense that God is near Too busy to stop and recognize The grief that lies in each others eyes Too busy to offer to help or share Too busy to empathize or care Too busy to do the good things we should Telling ourselves we would if we could But life is too swift and the pace too great And we dare not pause for we might be late For our next appointment which means so much We were to brush off our Savior’s touch And we tell ourselves there comes a day We will have more time to pause on our way But before you know it "life’s sun has passed" And we've passed the Savior and never met For hurrying along life's thoroughfares We passed by remained unaware That within the very sight of our eye Unnoticed the Son of God passed by
