Kimberli A. Gillotti
Kimberli Anne (Cochran) Gillotti, 63, of Warren, PA, passed away on Sunday, April 27, 2025, following a lengthy illness. Kim was a 1979 graduate of Sheffield Area Jr.-Sr. High School. She received her Associate’s Degree in Nursing from Jamestown Community College and her BSN in Nursing from Daemen University.
Kim was a dedicated Registered Nurse at Warren General Hospital for over 30 years. Her primary specialties were Med-Surg, OR/Head Nurse, and Informatics. Her passion for taking care of others was a trait that always came naturally to her. She was the definition of unconditional love and caring; not only in her passion for her patients and her loved ones, but even for those individuals she didn’t know.
Kim was the kind of person you knew you could always count on and she would lend a hand in any way she could. Her mere presence could improve anyone’s day with her infectious smile and her naturally radiating positivity. Even in the hardest of situations, she always found a way to remind herself and others, “it could always be worse.”
Kim’s greatest accomplishment out of all the amazing things she did throughout her life was being a mother and raising her son, Tyler, with her beloved husband, Randy. Tyler was truly the apple of her eye and every moment spent with him was one of her favorite memories.
Kim enjoyed spending time with her husband, Randy, son, Tyler, dog, Ollie, and her family. Throughout her life she loved to paint, work with ceramics, and vacation in Florida. In recent years, she looked forward to taking rides with Randy and Tyler in their Shelby Cobra. She proudly hosted get-togethers at their home where the family would come together to watch sports, play board games, and have pool tournaments.
Kim is survived by her mother, Charlotte Cochran of Sheffield, PA; husband, Randy Gillotti of Warren; son, Tyler Gillotti of Erie; and her dog, Ollie. She is also survived by her siblings and their spouses, Chris Cochran and Susan (Straneva) Cochran, Connie Cochran-Barr and Mike Barr, and Stacey (Cochran) Donovan and Pat Donovan; and by her sister-in-law, Debbie Airgood of Kane, PA. She will be missed greatly by all of her aunts and uncles. In addition she will be greatly missed by her nieces and nephews, Savanna, Ashley, Alex, Wesley, Katie, Nate, Dawson, Jack, Abby, Rebecca, Michael, Warn, and Hemi.
She was preceded in death by her father, Richard Cochran; her maternal uncle, Richard Wenker; father-in-law, Lewis Virgil Gillotti; mother-in-law, Elaine Gillotti; and brother-in-law, Jim Airgood.
Friends will be received at Peterson-Blick Funeral Home Inc., 1003 Penna. Ave. East, Warren, PA, on Tuesday, May 6, 2025, from 4 to 7 pm, and for one hour prior to a funeral service that will be held at Grace United Methodist Church, 501 Penna.
