I heard this sad news from a friend of hers a couple days ago, but didn't want to post anything until I could confirm it. Her personal phones have been disconnected, her Web site shows no new activity but there's been no obituary. Today, a second personal friend of hers confirmed that yes, she died Dec. 26th after a battle with lung cancer.

I'm sorry to be the one to break it to those who knew her and hadn't heard. While Kimberly hasn't been active in a long time here, she was always one of my heroes. By a stroke of luck, I got one of the last dogs she whelped, Jillie, and Jillie's social skills say all you need to know about Kimberly King. As a breeder, she had friends and she had enemies, but she knew how to raise Yorkies.

Her Web site, Yorkie breeders site: AKC Yorkshire Terrier breeder exhibitor of yorkie puppies - Yorkiepassion, is packed with information about Yorkie care and ownership that is a must read for Yorkie owners. I hope the information she has there can be preserved.

R.I.P., Kimberly. Thanks for teaching me about Yorkies. You will be missed.
