Kimberly Jean Pace Osborne, known affectionately as Kim by her loved ones, passed away peacefully on June 30, 2024, in Hohenwald, at the age of 62. Born on February 15, 1962, in Linden, she was a source of love and kindness to all who knew her.

Kim is survived by her devoted husband of nearly 46 years, James Richard “Rick” Osborne. Their union was a beautiful example of love and commitment, a foundation upon which they built a vibrant family. She leaves behind her cherished sons, Justin Osborne and his wife Tabitha, and Trevor Osborne and his wife Emily. Kim’s role as a grandmother was one of her greatest joys. Her grandchildren, Addison, Keely, Levi, and Mark will carry forward her memory of love and kindness.

She is also lovingly remembered by her sister, Debbie Pace Carroll, and her brother, Brad Pace. Kim was preceded in death by her parents, Homer Lee and Norma Jean Pace, who instilled in her the values of family and community that she upheld all her life.

Kim dedicated much of her professional life to serving her community as the Deputy Registrar of Deeds at the Lewis County Courthouse. Her meticulous attention to detail and her warm, welcoming presence made her an indispensable part of the Courthouse family. She was respected and admired by her colleagues for her work ethic and her ability to make everyone feel heard and valued. Outside of work, Kim’s interests revolved around the love she held for her family and grandchildren.

A life so beautifully lived deserves to be beautifully remembered. A celebration of life memorial service will take place at a later date to be announced.
