CHASE MILLS -- Kimball G. Miller, 57, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, October 28, 2026, at Rochester Regional Hospital in Potsdam, following a recent diagnosis of cancer. He was surrounded by the love and comfort of his family.

Born on November 18, 1968, in Massena, New York, Kimball was the son of the late Ronald and Bernadette (Duprey) Miller.

On August 1, 1997, Kimball married Sheri McDonald in Louisville, New York. Together, they shared a life filled with love, companionship, and cherished memories.

Kimball's journey took him beyond the North Country, where he graduated from Wyoming Tech. Drawn to the beauty and adventure of the West, he later moved to Montana with a family friend, where he had the opportunity to experience gold mining for a short time.

Eventually, Kimball returned home to the familiar surroundings of Northern New York, where he worked in the tire department at BJ's Wholesale Club for ten years then at Peterson Geo-Tech for nearly two years.

Kimball was a gentle soul with a kind heart who cared deeply for his wife, Sheri, and the animals they shared their lives with. He found happiness in life's simple pleasures and enjoyed spending time outdoors, whether hunting, fishing, or camping, where he could appreciate the beauty and peacefulness of nature.

He also enjoyed playing video games, a favorite pastime that brought him many hours of enjoyment. Above all, he treasured the comforts of home, the companionship of his beloved animals, and the life he shared with Sheri.

Kimball leaves behind his wife, Sheri; his siblings, Gordonna and her husband, Mark Blodgett, of Mineville, NY; Kelly Miller of Canton, NY; Rhonda and her husband, Calvin Smith, of Lisbon, NY, along with several nieces and nephews.

In addition to his parents, Kimball was predeceased by his brothers, Kevin, Keith, and Karl Miller.

Though his passing came far too soon, Kimball leaves behind memories that will forever be treasured by those who knew and loved him. His gentle nature, kind heart, and love for the simple things in life will remain a part of how he is remembered.

While his absence will be deeply felt, the love he shared, and the memories created throughout his life will continue to live on in the hearts of his family and loved ones.

There will be no calling hours or funeral services. Arrangements are under the care of Phillips Memorial Home in Massena, New York.
