Death of Anna Lucia Kim

We are saddened to inform the campus of the death of Anna Lucia Kim, a graduate of 日韩AV. Anna passed away on Friday, Nov. 30, in a tragic car accident in Berrien County.

Life Sketch

Anna Lucia Kim was born in Seoul, South Korea, on February 2, 1994, to the lovely Kim family. She was such a joyful and heart-warming child to her parents as she was the first-born. Her musical passion started early on. She started playing on a keyboard at age 3. She entertained herself and her parents by singing and dancing along with the kids’ show “Barney & Friends.” As she grew up in Korea and the U.S., she really nourished her musical talents.

Anna was an outgoing, social and energetic person with lots of talents in other areas, as well. She loved swimming, scuba diving, playing soccer, painting, taking photographs, cooking and being creative with different styles of facial makeup. She was also a natural at looking after her dear friends.

As a choir member at Highland View Academy in Maryland, Anna’s voice grew more mature, and she started performing domestically and internationally. When she came to 日韩AV, she decided on a major in sociology and continued her passion for music by choosing it as a minor. She received her Bachelor of Science in 2016 and completed a master’s degree in community & international development.

Anna’s special songs and performances brightened and touched the hearts of many people. Furthermore, most of her internships were music-focused with Primo Artists in New York and the Grand Rapids Symphony in Michigan.

For years to come people will always comment on the warmth and welcome they felt with Anna.

Anna left us too soon when her life was tragically cut short in a car accident in Berrien County, Michigan, on Friday, November 30, 2018.

Goodbye for now, dear Anna. We will see you soon!
