We are heartbroken to share the passing of Dorothy Alice Kimbrough, who left us on Sunday, April 20, 2025.

Dorothy, better known as Dot, was a cornerstone in the Kimbrough family, and lived a life of support, strength, laughter, and love.

Dot was born in the small town of Gilbertown, AL in 1928, to Frederick Kimbrough Sr. and Thelma Smedley.

She grew up in the context of the family farm, and the cowgirl lifestyle was in her blood from an early age. As a young woman, Dot kept the books at a local lumber company, which allowed her to save enough money to build her own house on the family land in Gilbertown.

Dot is survived by her niece and nephew, Tatiana Kimbrough Sewell and Ian Frederick Kimbrough, and grand-niece Michaela Alexis (Lexi) Sewell.

The family will hold a small in-person celebration of life in the coming months.

In lieu of flowers, we encourage those who wish to honor Dot's life to either make a contribution to the Junior Southern Rodeo Association or to donate or volunteer at a local community service organization that is meaningful to them.
