Good Evening, Everyone.
It is with great sadness that I share our mother, Kim Houston, passed away peacefully last Monday night. My mom’s health started declining rather quickly once she returned home from the rehab facility.
Two weeks ago, we had a scare after dialysis and called 911. Ultimately, she told us she could not fight anymore after learning nothing new was happening with her. As a family, we all agreed to begin hospice care. She especially spoke up and said yes to the palliative doctor when asked if she wanted to start hospice. My mom expressed the most conviction we’ve heard in her voice since this journey began. As tough as she was and as hard as she fought, we all agreed this was no way to live in her current state, and sadly, it was impossible to recover from.
My mom began hospice care in the comfort of her own home on 3/18. Within three or four days, my mother was not responsive, wasn’t eating, and was barely receiving water. After she had nearly stopped communicating altogether, she slept peacefully the entire rest of her days. At approximately 6:23 pm, on March 24th, 2025, our dear mother, Kim Katherine Kissinger Houston, passed away peacefully with her children surrounding her, exactly the way she would want to go.
We have not figured out when and where the memorial service will be as of yet. We will let everyone know the details as soon as everything is planned. Please understand that she passed as peacefully as possible, given her situation. Both her family and friends are very sad she is gone, but at the same time, we are happy she is no longer suffering.
There is a long list of tasks my siblings and I need to accomplish. Any final donation would be beyond appreciated and would greatly relieve some stress off of us during nearly the hardest days of our lives so far.
My siblings and I cannot thank you all enough for everything so far. We’re almost near the end of this difficult chapter, we’ll tell you what we learned when the time comes.
Wishing you and your family all the best,
The Houston Family
P.S. CALL YOUR MOM IF YOU STILL CAN!
