Her sisters Flora Belle Huff, Mamie Reid, Lillian Reid, and Frances Simmons and her brothers Robah Rothrock, Mitchell Rothrock, Curtis Rothrock, Stokes Rothrock, Burton Rothrock, and Elgin Welch also preceded her in death. She is survived by her sons the Rev. Roger W. Kimball (Mitzie) and Donald R. Kimball (Geneva) and daughters Ann Stafford Dillon and Linda K. Jarvis (Larry) of Winston-Salem and son-in-law John Meder of Plumas Lake, California.

She volunteered both at Salemtowne(when it was the Moravian Home) and the Old St. Phillips Nursery in the 1960' s. She never forgot the birthday of her children, grandchildren or any great-grandchild and insisted on celebrating her birthday and all of theirs. She believed that all people were good and whenever fault was found in anyone she always said, "Well, they' re good to me." Services for Treva Kimball will be held at Friedland Moravian Church at 3:00 p.m. on Sunday, April 26, 2009 with the Rev. Dr. Wally Yarborough, Rev. Carol Foltz, and Rev. Ben Shepherd officiating.
