Dr. Harris M. Kimbrough, Jr., 82, went to be with the Lord, lovingly surrounded by his family on October 19, 2014.
He was born April 24, 1932, in Amarillo, TX to Harris and Jewel (Scales) Kimbrough, SR., and resided there for half his life. He attended Yale University and the University of Texas before receiving his D.D.S. at Baylor Dental College in Dallas, Texas.
Harris proudly served as a Lt. in the US Navy, where he served in the Philippines. He then practiced dentistry with a focus in TMJ and nutrition. On April 24, 1977, he married Diane Henslee in Hankins, NY. They moved to Marengo, IL in 1978. Together they led seminars in Homeopathy and dentistry, including the WGSTD group for 37 years. He shared a deep and loving fellowship with these doctors and they were his extended family. The compassion he felt for his patients' wellbeing was immeasurable, as he dedicated his work to nurturing the whole person.
His Christian faith and his involvement in AA was very important to him and impacted many lives, based on the "Four Absolutes" absolute honesty, absolute purity, absolute unselfishness, and absolute love. He was very blessed to be a member of Westminster Presbyterian church in Elgin. Harris was a proverbial DIY'er, he was doing projects at home long before it was the thing to do.
He is survived by his devoted wife, Diane; and his children, Katrina (Dale) Elliott, Ned Kimbrough, Mike (Jeanette) Kimbrough, Kristi (Kurt) Scharrenberg, Cinamon Kimbrough, Scott (Kristen) Kimbrough; along with 11 grandchildren and 15 great grandchildren.
His parents; his sister; and his daughter, Robin Kimbrough, preceded him in death.
He will be greatly missed.
Visitation will be from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. on Thursday, October 23, at Marengo-Union Funeral Home, 505 E. Grant Hwy., Marengo, IL. The visitation will continue from 10:00 to 11:00 a.m. on Friday, October 24, at Westminster Presbyterian Church, 2700 W. Highland Ave., Elgin. The service will be at 11:00 a.m. with a luncheon following at the Church. Interment will be in Marengo City Cemetery, at 2:30 p.m.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to the Westminster Presbyterian Church. 2700 W. Highland Ave., Elgin, IL 60124
