Kimberly Joyce Najera of Valley Springs, Arkansas passed away Sunday, November 5, 2017 at home at the age of 47.

The daughter of Claude and Brenda (Lynch) Gober was born August 6, 1970 in Redlands, California.

Kimberly moved to Boone County, Arkansas 22 years ago from Yucaipa, California. She enjoyed fishing, riding horses, rescuing stray animals and being outdoors at the creek and river. She loved spending time with her daughter. She also enjoyed traveling with her mom and sister. She was a "foodie" who loved to try new things.

"MeMe" loved her family more than anything. She was funny, intelligent and never met a stranger. She had an adventurous, free spirit and was always willing to lend a hand to anyone in need.

She was preceded in death by her brother, Paul Michael Gober, her grandparents, Lela Mae Harris and Clyde Willie Lynch, and her uncles, Sonny Lynch and Robby Lynch.

Survivors are her daughter, Marlee Joy White of the home; her parents, Claude and Brenda Gober of Valley Springs; her sisters, Dawn Dillon of Branson and Charlie and Ken Bennett of Harrison; her nieces and nephews, Noah Bennett, Andrew Bennett, Jeffrey Gober, Madison Dillon, MacKenzie Dillon, Brady Dillon, Brynn Bennett and Gracie Bennett; her aunts, Pat Knipp of Harrison, Verda Howard of Yucaipa, CA and Joyce Reinhard of Rancho Mirage, CA and many other relatives and friends who loved her dearly.

Private celebration of life will be held at a later date. Donations in her memory can be made to Ozark Humane Society, PO Box 542, Harrison, Arkansas, 72601.
