Daily News | Kim Wylie, South Philadelphia community activist and social media influencer, has died at 59
Kim Wylie, 59, of Philadelphia, a community activist in her Point Breeze neighborhood, role model to family and friends, and social media influencer, died Monday, June 27, of cardiac arrest at her home. An official death certificate is pending.
In that role, Ms. Wylie used social media, her organizational skills, culinary expertise, and ability to connect with people to enhance the events and activities sponsored by the foundation. If an event needed publicity, she flooded herwith videos and information. If food was required, she did much of the cooking. If counseling was offered, she listened and shared lessons from her own life.
Born Aug. 3, 1962, in Philadelphia, Ms. Wylie graduated from John Bartram High School, attended Peirce Junior College, now Peirce College, and worked for a time at the Philadelphia office of the Social Security Administration. She married Victor Greenwood, and they had daughter Victoria and sons Kenyon, Andre, Donte, Darrell, Vaughn, and Dajuan.
Often waking at 5 a.m. to start her day, Ms. Wylie liked to spend time at Reading Terminal Market and with her children and grandchildren. She enjoyed shopping, especially at Macy’s, and cooking. Barbecue, crabs, and potato salad were among her specialties, and she often posted videos about her favorite recipes and bargains she came across.
