Kimberly Michelle East, age 32, of Brown County passed away Friday evening (09/11/2020) at her residence. Born June 8, 1988 in Bartholomew County, she was the daughter of Michael L. and Jonnette G. (Bringle) Robinson, of Nashville.
Kimberly was a 2010 graduate of Ivy Tech Community College with a technical certificate in Dental Assisting. She then continued her education at Indiana University School of Dentistry and earned a certificate in 2013 to be able to do expanded functions in dental restorations. She had been a part of the team at Tipton Park Dentistry starting in 2012 and joined the office of Dr. Barr, DDS after the birth of her son.
Kimberly loved spending quality time with her family and friends and being the key person in planning birthday, celebration and milestone parties. She especially enjoyed “hanging out” with her sister and sisters-in-law. Kimberly had attended the Free Methodist Church and later the Westside Community Church, both in Columbus.

Kimberly also had many friends who loved her dearly.
She was preceded in death by her paternal grandfather, Melvin Robinson, maternal grandfather, Raymond Lange and father and mother-in-law, Barry and Brenda (Smith) East.
The funeral service will be at 11. a.m. Thursday, Sept. 17 at the Parkview Church of the Nazarene in Nashville with Pastor Dennis Aud officiating.
