Kim Nicholson

Suddenly, following a tragic accident on 25th April 2026, Kim, aged 64 years, of Rishton and formerly of Billington. The devoted and much-loved husband of Katie, loving dad of Sam, Sally and Kim, cherished step-dad of Sarah, Michael and Beth, adored son of Maureen and the late Barrie, treasured grandad of Loui, Tommy, Frankie and Ellie, step-grandad of Matthew, Grace and Eve, dear brother of Steven and his wife Sally, and a much-loved uncle, relative and friend to many.

A true gentleman in every sense of the word, Kim was kind and caring, always willing to go out of his way to help anyone at any time. A devoted family man, he treasured every moment spent with those he loved. Kim was a passionate motorcycle enthusiast, and his BMW motorbike was one of his greatest joys. He relished every opportunity to get out on the open road, embracing the freedom it brought him. He was well known and highly respected within the motorbike community. Kim began his working life as a butcher after leaving school and later went on to become a director at First 4 Print Finishing. He took great pride in his work and formed many lasting friendships throughout his career. He also greatly enjoyed his holidays, both in the UK and abroad. Kim loved his food, whether dining out or enjoying a simple, hearty meal, his favourite being a traditional pie. Just a couple of weeks ago, he and his beloved wife Katie celebrated their anniversary with a special fine dining experience at Northcote.

Kim was loved by all who had the privilege of knowing him. He will be deeply missed but forever remembered with love and a smile.

Kim’s love for motorcycles was a big part of who he was. If you would like to join him on his final journey, you are warmly welcome to ride along on your motorbike. Please contact Champ Funerals for details.

Family flowers only please. Donations are being gratefully received in Kim’s memory on behalf of North West Air Ambulance & Blood Bikes.
