Kim "Cookie" Koch
May 15, 1955 — May 14, 2023
Kim “Cookie” Koch, 67, passed away peacefully on May 14, 2023 at his home in Cheyenne, Wyoming. He was born on May 15, 1955 in Laramie, Wyoming to John Robert Koch and BettyJean Koch.
Cookie spent his childhood and early adult years in Laramie and graduated from Laramie High School in 1973. He later moved to Cheyenne where he worked as an engineer for the Union Pacific Railroad for over 30 years.
Following his retirement, Cookie had time to pursue his interests, which included golf and then even more golf. He always made the sport look easy as his father had worked with him from an early age to develop a perfect golf swing.
Cookie’s pleasant and unassuming personality was contagious to everyone he met. He was especially gracious following most golf outings while accepting the amounts owed from small wagers. He will be greatly missed by his many friends in the Cheyenne area, including, of course, his golfing companions who now have an empty slot to fill – a spot that cannot really be filled by anyone.
Cookie was pre-deceased by his parents. He is survived by his brother, Michael, of Arizona and his long-time partner Shelley Lindeman.
Funeral services are being handled by Wiederspahn-Radomsky of Cheyenne.
Kim’s friends are planning Cookie’s Celebration of Life to take place at Amvets Bar … in Cheyenne on Saturday, May 20, 2023 from 3 to 6 pm. All of his friends are invited
