Kimberly Bullinger

Kimberly “Kim” Bullinger, 64, passed away at her home in Mandan, North Dakota, on April 18, 2025.

Kim was born Kimberly Murrish on August 14, 1960, in Kearney, Nebraska, to Russell and Deanna Murrish. She graduated from North Platte high school in 1978 and moved shortly after with her family to Mandan, where she later met and married the love of her life, Calvin Bullinger. Together, they built a life centered on love, family, and raising their three children.

Kim was a proud and loving mother to Casey Totenhagen (John), Jamie Zimney (Lee), and Jordan Bullinger (Gabi); and a cherished grandma to Elsa, Henry, Adalee, and Gus. Her grandchildren and young nephew and niece, Issac and Morgan, were the light of her life. She also enjoyed annual “glamping” trips with her lifelong friends from high school.

Kim was preceded in death by her beloved husband Calvin, her parents, Russell and Deanna, and her brother, Scott Murrish. She is survived by her siblings Jeff Murrish, Krystal Keidel, and Rob Murrish; and many nieces and nephews whom she held dear.

A celebration of Kim’s life will be held at a later date.
