Kim Maureen Hoiness

Kim M. Hoiness, age 64, passed peacefully surrounded by family, on Thursday October 3rd.
Kim was born in October 11, 1959 in Moses Lake, WA to Donald P. and Barbara (Pinky) Blessing. She
was the youngest of five siblings.
After graduating from Moses Lake High School in 1978 she attended Central Washington University
earning a Bachelors Degree in Apparel Merchandising. While at CWU she met Clete Hoiness (CD), whom
she married in 1984 and later had three sons, Kyle, Sean and Cody.
Kim used her degree in Apparel Merchandising as she launched her retail career at the Bon Marche in
Longview, WA. She gained experience in varying management roles in big box stores in the Longview
area, which prepared her to open her own children’s clothing store in Moses Lake in 1986, Kylie’s Kloset.
She owned and operated this successful business for 16 years and eventually added a women’s boutique
section before selling the business in 2002 to focus more time on family and to begin a career in Real
Estate. Kim represented residential and commercial clients in Moses Lake and surrounding areas until
her retirement.
Kim’s greatest joy in life was her family. She and CD spent countless hours watching their boys compete
in wrestling, golf and football all over the Pacific Northwest. When she wasn’t busy following the boys
she enjoyed spending time on the golf course, in her yard or with family and friends, telling jokes and
crazy stories which were always sure to get a laugh.
As Kim and CD’s boys grew up and had their own families, she found an even more exciting source of joy
in her grandchildren Liam, Hendrix, Wyatt, Will and Brycen. She cherished her time with them and even
though her time with them was too short, has certainly left a mark in their hearts.
Kim is survived by her husband, CD, her sons Kyle (Angie), Sean (Carrie) and Cody, all of Moses Lake
along with her five grandchildren, her siblings Kathleen (John) Forsberg, Moses Lake, Greg (Maggie)
Blessing, Spokane and Chris Blessing, Moses Lake, her in laws, Susie, Val, Marlene, Harold, Rocky, Corky
and Ron Hoiness who reside in Longview, WA and Oregon and numerous nieces and nephews.
Those who knew Kim well will deeply miss her hilarious personality, her loyalty and deep love for family
and friends that she held dear.
The family has scheduled services on October 18. The prayer of the Holy Rosary will take place at 10:00
am, followed by the Liturgy of the Word at Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Church 200 N. Dale Rd. Moses
Lake, WA. Graveside services will take place immediately after at Pioneer Memorial Cemetery and the
family invites friends to join them at the Pillar Rock Grill at 1:00pm for a Celebration of Kim’s life.
