Dennis Nail Obituary

Visit the Harris Funeral Home - Kings Mountain website to view the full obituary.

Dennis Lee Nail, 72, of High Shoals, NC, passed away on March 2, 2026 at CaroMont Regional Medical Center in Gastonia. Born August 6, 1953 in Montague, MA, he was the son of the late Marion Nail and Lorraine Taylor Nail. Dennis served his country honorably in the US Marine Corps, during which time he was awarded the National Defense Service Medal and the Good Conduct Medal. He was a devoted husband and a loving father, always there to be supportive or lend some wisdom. He was a great teacher for his sons who modeled hard work and dedication every day of his life. Dennis was a proud grandfather and great-grandfather, and his grandchildren adored their "Poppy" just as much as he adored them. Dennis was strong in every definition of the word, a loving patriarch who took joy in a job well done and in providing for his family. His legacy is secure as an inspiration and example to all those he leaves behind.
