Kimberly Dawn Ivie, 43, lifelong area resident, died Saturday in Zion,
Illinois, after battling against cancer.
Kim joins her father Donnie Ray Werts in heaven but will be greatly
missed on earth by her loving husband Kenneth of the home; mother Linda
Werts of Bartlesville; four beloved children, Keeleigh, Kollin, Kenadee
and Kamryn; one brother Donny Werts and Melissa, one nephew D.J. Werts,
all of Bartlesville; and a host of family and friends.
Kimberly was born the daughter of Donnie Ray and Linda Sue (Shull) Werts
on Sept. 2, 1974, in Bartlesville. At Bartlesville Public Schools, she
was active in many programs, including the Bruin Brigade (band). Kim
graduated from Bartlesville High School in 1992 and went to work at the
mall. She worked at Corn Dog 7, Classic Pets and the Burger Hop before
starting her 21-year career with Wal-Mart, most recently working as a
claims supervisor. Kim met Kenneth at Red Apple Bowling Center in 1995
and just after her 22nd birthday, they were united in marriage on Sept.
6, 1996, at Virginia Ave. Baptist Church. They were blessed with four
beautiful children and made their home in Bartlesville until Kim
convinced Kenneth they should live in the country so in 2002 they moved
to their land in Nowata.
Kimberly was a go-getter and a doer. She was instrumental in approaching
Kane Elementary principal Beth Cook and working out a plan to take an
aerial photograph of the Kane students spelling “Bartlesville Loves
Mickey” which won a special contest for Disney to bring their
Independence Day parade to communities across America in 2000.
Kim loved her children and was active in their many sporting events and
activities. She loved her coworkers and often organized everyone to help
one another when they faced troubling times. She adored animals and had
many pets over the years including her horses, dogs, cats, ferrets and
many more. She received the Key to the City of Nowata for her efforts in
donating pet food to the local shelter.
Visitation will be held Thursday from 10-8 and Friday 10-12. Kim’s
family will receive friends at the Davis Family Funeral Home,
918-534-3030, 113 S. Osage (Hwy. 75), Dewey, on Thursday, Jan. 4, from

Funeral services will be held 2 p.m. Friday, Jan. 5, at Virginia Ave.
Baptist Church, with Rev. Larry Adams officiating.
