Kimberly Lynne Bensor's Obituary
Kimberly Lynne Bensor, born September 13, 1982 in Ventura, CA to David Franzen and Ruth Ann McAnulty, died January 25, 2020 due to liver complications. Kim grew up in Ventura and loved skating, concerts, and live comedy shows. She graduated from Ventura High and received an Associate degree from Oxnard College. She married in 2006 later having two children; Andrew in 2008 and Alyssa in 2014. She was diagnosed with breast cancer late 2013 and endured many chemo and radiation treatments that helped her enjoy a short time of remission in 2017. She moved to Kaysville, Utah in July 2018 in hopes to find a better future for her family. Moving on from the disease she was able to focus on watching her family grow and enjoyed everything about Utah. Routine PET scans and blood work showed that the cancer had moved. She was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic breast cancer in December 2018 and had to prepare herself for another fight with the disease. Faced with the chance that she will not survive, Kim did not hesitate and continued to fight. She was a very strong loving person and always tried to hide her struggle but couldn’t hide any longer. The disease took her life but not her love for the people she cared about especially her children. Kim is survived by her husband Jeff and two young children Andrew and Alyssa. Her memory will live on through them and her family and friends.
