Daniel Jackson "Jack" Kimbrough

You were more that just my Granny's boss, you were a friend. You let me hang out next to the door to your counter in the old store and on the stairs of the new answering my weird questions about "drug interactions" and what medicine did what. When I started college, I chose Pre-Pharmacy, because I wanted to have a job I loved too, like it seemed you did with yours. Unfortunately, I wasn't as smart as you on some things. "Fish or cut bait", you said. I took it to mean keep moving forward in life. Do Something. Don't just sit there. The stories you told were life lessons to me, (especially with what NOT to do out in the woods). The smile you gave was a good and honest one. You were a good man, Uncle Jack. Rest well. Know that you live on in my heart.

Jack Kimbrough was Special to me and to everyone who knew him. Some of my fondest, unforgetable memories involve Jack and our "adventures" in and around Clute, Texas, in the 1940's and 50's. That old '39 Buick saw many a "scrape', but , somehow we survived them all.
Jack was a Master of the Practical Joke. He took great delight in catching people "off guard" and pulling some kind of prank on them, especially me. There was never a dull moment around Jack Kimbrough. Jack loved life and made sure that those around him also had a good time.
Daniel Jackson Kimbrough was probably the smartest person I have ever known (and I have met several "intellectual giants" in my 77 years). Jack cared for people and went out of his way to provide help and support for anyone who needed it.
I will always cherish my memories of Jack Kimbrough. May God bless his Memory.
Because of his life the World is a Better Place.

Some people come into our lives, leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never the same. Mr. Kimbrough will always be a special part of my life as well as a part of Clute, Texas. His dedication to our family will always be remembered. Heaven has truly gained an angel.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Jack was a lot of good things rolled into one man. A lot of young & not so new moms would have been a lot worse off if not for him. God knows I don't know what George & I would have done a lot of times without him to help keep Quenton well. He truly was a God send. If we had more people like him the world would be a better place.

Jack helped save my life through love, compassion and friendship. I will never forget him. I pray for peace and comfort for his family during this difficult time.
