Kim's obituary

Kimberly Ann Ganem, age 40, died peacefully surrounded by her beloved family and friends on May 22, 2023 at Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa, after a courageous battle with breast cancer. She was born on April 1, 1983, in Key West, Florida, the daughter of David J. Ganem (deceased) and Rosemary A. (D’Ercole) Ganem. Kim graduated from Key West High School, class of 2001, received her bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from Florida Atlantic University in 2006 and continued to receive her master’s degree in 2007. Kim excelled in her career with Raytheon Technologies, she supported the Radios and Terminals Group, was a Site Installation Team Lead for Secure Communications Technical Services and most recently was the Lead Systems Engineer for the E-4B platform within Airborne Mobile. She was invited to attend and completed Raytheon’s Engineering Leadership Development Program (ELDP) and Systems Engineering Technical Development Program (SEtdp). She was described by a co-worker as the perfect example of a leader and one who never seemed to say no to any community project or leadership role. In addition to her mother, she is survived by her sister, Nicole Ganem, brothers Paul and Peter Ganem, uncle Dennis D’Ercole and her God children, Iznaya Marie Carrasquillo age 15, Dorian Jay Mounts age 11, Darius Jose Mounts age 7, and Davian Joseph Mounts age 1. She was an active member of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Tampa Bay. Kim love da kids! A memorial service will be held at 2pm Saturday, June 3rd at Citrus Park Ministries, 7705 Gunn Hwy, Tampa Florida 33625.
