Kimberly N. Brueck

Kimberly N. Brueck, passed away on September 3, 2026, in Paducah, Kentucky, at the age of 65, surrounded by her family and friends at her home. She was born on July 26, 1961, in Nashville, Tennessee, and lived a life marked by generosity, kindness, and love for others.
 
Kimberly was the beloved daughter of the late Robert Paul Brueck and Norene Larue Blacketer Brueck. She was also preceded in death by her cherished Yorkie fur baby, Sissy Bear Brueck. She is survived by her brother, Stephen Brueck, and his wife, Amy, of the North Georgia Mountains, Georgia, as well as her nephew, Matthew Brueck, and her nieces, Paige McNeil, Chelsea Harrington, and Mallory Maher. Her family will always remember her warm heart, steady presence, and the special way she made each person feel valued and cared for.
 
Kimberly graduated from the University of Mississippi with her bachelor’s degree, an accomplishment that reflected her dedication and determination. She carried that same commitment into her professional life, where she first taught Kindergarten for Holly Tree and later retired from RG Anderson General Contractors in Nashville, Tennessee, after 17 years of service as Accounts Payable Manager. In every role she held, Kimberly was known for her dependability, her strong work ethic, and the grace with which she served others.
 
Faith was an important part of Kimberly’s life. She was a faithful and active member of Salt & Light Community Church, where she served on the Board and was the Director of the Backpack Ministry. Through her church involvement, she poured her time and energy into helping others and lived out her belief in caring for those in need. Kimberly had a generous spirit and was a kind and giving person who was always willing to help anyone who needed support. She was also a devoted friend to those who knew her.
 
Those who knew Kimberly will remember her as generous, kind, and loving. She had a gentle way about her and a heart that was open to others. Her life was a reflection of compassion and service, and she leaves behind a legacy of faith, devotion, and selfless love. Kimberly touched many lives through her words, her actions, and the example she set each day.
 
Her memory will be treasured by all who were fortunate enough to know her. Though she is no longer with us, the love she shared and the goodness she brought into the world will remain in the hearts of her family, friends, church family, and all whose lives she brightened.
