He was born February 21, 1957 as the third child of Clifford and Lois Andrus. Kim attended the Carlton center and Woodland Schools and graduated from Lakewood High School in 1975. During his adult life he was a farmer, insurance agent, semi-truck driver, and mechanic. He survived a farm accident in 1986 that severely injured his left leg. Sadly, this also ended his farming ambitions,. Years later the persistent pain and other complications from this injury would result in amputation below the knee. For many years he ran his own truck mechanic business, primarily servicing semi-tractors and trailers. He retired to Miami, OK in 2016 to get into a climate more favorable (ie. much less ice and snow) to the use of his prosthetic leg. In retirement he enjoyed making woodworking projects on his scroll saw and wood lathe and visiting with friends. Kim was preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, Jerimiah and Anna Andrus; maternal grandparent, Cecil and Wilma Oler; and parents Clifford and Lois Andrus. He is survived by his brother, Galen (Claire) Andrus; sister, Kathy Andrus, and numerous cousins.
