Alynda was born in Amarillo, TX on October 14, 1937. She attended Amarillo High School and Amarillo College. Alynda met and married Richard Kimbrough on May 14, 1960. They were a true love story. Both adored each other and were blessed with 50 years of marriage.

Alynda sold Sarah Coventry Jewelry for many years while raising four daughters. She then opened a florist shop in Canyon, TX, and sold Mary Kay Cosmetics.

Alynda had been a member of Hillside Christian Church since 1974. She was also a member of Sharing Hope Ministries, XI Alpha Sigma Sorority, Faith Builders Sunday School Class, and she attended Bible Study Fellowship for 13 years.

Alynda shared her faith with everyone she met, through words and the example of how she lived her life. She loved Jesus, family, friends, and serving others.

She provided a loving and fun home that was always full of laughter and friends! Her daughters describe her as not only the best mom and wife in the world but was also the best friend. She was generous, joyful, full of adventure, and loved traveling around the world. Alynda loved family dinners, dancing, singing, and spending time with her grandchildren.

Alynda loved well and left a legacy of love that will last for generations to come.

The scripture Proverbs 31:25-31 describes her best: “A woman of noble character.”

Alynda will be missed, and we will have an ache in our hearts until we are greeted home by her, our daddy, and our precious Lord Jesus!

Alynda was preceded in death by her parents, Hubert Edgar Hudspeth and Maudie Mae Hudspeth; and her husband, Richard Kimbrough.
