Kimberly Ann Conyers was born on December 23, 1957 at Lakeside Hospital in Kansas City, Missouri to Donald Hal Conyers and Bonnie Mae (Portwood) Conyers.

Kimberly lived in Arlington, Texas before moving to Oklahoma City, Oklahoma from the ages of five to twenty-one. She always enjoyed going on vacation to Manhattan, Kansas and Butler, Missouri to visit her family and spend time with them.

Kimberly joined a softball league at the age of 9, and from there traveled to many out of state tournaments and even went semi pro. She participated at three Regional Events in Louisiana, and then went to Parma, Ohio for Nationals. In later years she went to Elk Grove, California for Nationals where her team had a ball signed by each member in the Softball Hall of Fame for 100 straight wins in league play.

Everyone that knew Kimberly knew that she loved spending time at the lake out on the boat fishing. Some of her other hobbies included swimming, skiing, exploring, truck driving and traveling around the United States seeing all of the beautiful sites and scenery. She especially loved visiting the Warsaw swinging bridge. Kimberly could also be found with her mother volunteering at events and workshops for Cerebral Palsy, as well as telethons.

Her greatest pride in life was when she gave birth to her twin daughters on March 19, 1979. She was so very happy to be the central figure in the lives of both of her children. Her children and grandchildren were the stars in her eyes, and anyone could clearly tell there was nothing but love and care for them all. Kimberly will be deeply missed by everyone, and the love she gave will never be forgotten.

She is preceded in death by her father Donald Howell Conyers and her mother Bonnie Mae Conyers Portwood, brother Richard Alan Bennett, grandparents George and Florance Portwood, and Hal and Hattie Conyers.

Survivors include her two daughters Bonnie Michelle Flander and husband Kyle, Kristy Dawn Conyers and husband Robert Hill, sister Sheila Jean Richey, sister-in-law Pamela Kay Bennett, seven grandchildren Sabrina, Ty, Bryce, Donavon, Savannah, Torrie, Ziva, and 5 great grandchildren with one on the way.
