Little League® International is deeply saddened to share the passing of Kimberly Ann Sampsell, a Williamsport native and longtime dedicated Little League employee. Sampsell joined the organization’s full-time staff in 2015 as a File Clerk, serving for nearly a decade before retiring in April 2025.
While Sampsell was dedicated to Little League, her greatest passion was her family. She cherished her husband of 43 years, Keith, their three sons – Keith, Kris, and Kyle – and her seven beloved grandchildren, who were the light of her life.
Known of her kindness, compassion, and unwavering devotion to others, Sampsell found joy in caring for others and was always willing to offer comfort, encouragement, or a listening ear to anyone in need.
She is survived by her husband, Keith Sampsell of Williamsport; sons; Keith (Lutricia) Sampsell, II of Lock Haven, Kristopher (Samantha) Sampsell of Emmaus, and Kyle Sampsell of Woolrich; brother, Donald (Carol) Slout of Williamsport; sisters; Gail Bruggeman of Montoursville, Debi (Terry) Decker of Jersey Shore, Tammy Johnson of Williamsport; and seven grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her parents, William and Dorothy Slout.
Sampsell will be remembered for her unwavering commitment to her family and Little League. Her legacy and service to her community will be lived out by all who knew her.
