Kimberly Reeder Kemp Montieth did not know she would become a widow so early in life when she married her husband, Chris, by the age of 19 years old. But she will forever be grateful for having as much time possible with the kind man, husband, and father before he passed away from colon cancer after a four-year battle. They choose to continue to “live with cancer” by living each day to their fullest with hope, and gratitude, accepting help and prayers from their loved ones. In this first part of a two-part series, Kimberly shares the story of hopeful resilience in the shadow of looming widowhood. In the next episode, she follows up with how she used her experience to connect with other members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints who also lost their spouses. 

Even though we live in challenging times, we can become Relentlessly Resilient as we lean on and learn from one another’s experiences. Hosts Jennie Taylor and Michelle Scharf are no strangers to overcoming adversity; Michelle lost her husband to cancer, while Jennie’s husband, Major Brent Taylor, was killed in the service of our country. Their stories bond them together, and now listeners can join them weekly as they visit with others enduring challenges and who teach us how they are exercising resiliency, finding value in their grief, and purpose in moving forward.
