It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Kimmi Summars Early, who left this world on July 16, 2026, surrounded by her loving family. Born on September 28, 1972, in the charming town of Murray, Kentucky, Kimmi was a beacon of warmth and kindness whose presence touched the lives of all who knew her. Kimmi faced life's challenges with unwavering strength and grace. Her recent battle with complications following open heart surgery was met with the same courage and dignity she exemplified throughout her life. Though she has departed from this world, the love she shared and the memories she created will forever remain in the hearts of those she leaves behind. She was the beloved daughter of the late Fred and Freda Summars, who instilled in her the values of compassion, resilience, and unwavering dedication to family. Kimmi was also preceded in death by her grandparents, whose legacy of love and family she cherished dearly. Kimmi's greatest joy was her family, and she leaves behind her three adoring children who were the center of her world: Alex Early of Murray, KY, and Jared and Bailey Early of Paris, TN. Her love and guidance will continue to shine through them as they carry forward her legacy of kindness and devotion. Kimmi was also a proud grandmother to one cherished grandchild, who brought immense joy and light into her life. Friends and family will gather to celebrate Kimmi's life on July 20, 2026, at Ridgeway Funeral Home, located in Paris, TN. The service will commence at 11:01 AM, where those who knew and loved Kimmi will come together to honor her memory.
