Arthur Kihm Obituary

Arthur Robin Kihm, 80, peacefully passed away at home on Saturday, September 20, 2025.

Robin was born on December 1, 1944, to John Kihm and Lillian Ferne Smith Kihm in Courtright, Ontario, Canada.

According to Robin, he had two great life achievements. The first was when he married Sandra Frandsen on March 17, 1969, on the ranch near Moreland, Idaho. The second great life achievement was working on the Ascension Hill for the “I AM” COME Pageant for 20 years in Mt. Shasta, California.

Robin and Sandra loved Niagara Falls, visiting it over 200 times, and even getting to walk out into the Falls when it was under maintenance.

Robin was a skilled photographer and would photograph anything and everything from hummingbirds, mountains, landscapes, and lightning storms. Robin loved participating in church activities, model railroading, golfing, gardening, hiking, and ice skating. He loved model railroading so much that he made room in his home to build an “O Scale” model railroad, 8 feet by 15 feet!

Robin is survived by his sweetheart, Sandra Kihm; sister-in-law Jeanette Kihm; niece Shelley (Robert) Blomberg, great-nephews Jonathan Blomberg and Justin Blomberg; nephew Robert J. Kihm, great-niece Alexis Kihm and great-nephew Aidan Kihm. Robin is preceded by his parents, John and Ferne Kihm; brother Dawne Kihm; and niece Carol Frandsen Kihm.

A celebration of Robin’s life will be held on Saturday, September 27, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. at Wilks Funeral Home (211 W Chubbuck Rd, Chubbuck ID 83202).
