Clifford Sims Whitmore
July 30, 1933 - July 5, 2017

Clifford Sims Whitmore, 83, Harrison, passed away Wednesday, July 5, 2017, at his home. He was born July 30, 1933, in Pampa, Texas, the son of Clifford Monroe and Fannie Florence (Sims) Whitmore. After graduating from Texas A&M University with a doctorate in Veterinary Medicine, “Doc” Whitmore and his wife Joan came to the Ozarks to start a mixed animal veterinary practice. For 30 years he cared for the animals of four counties and their people.

Being a Texas Aggie through and through, he often had a good healthy exchange of practical jokes with his Arkansas Razorback friends over the years. He loved to travel, hunt, and just loved being outdoors in the Ozark Mountains. Doc Whitmore loved and served the community of Harrison and Boone County. He loved his family, and he loved his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

He was preceded in death by his wife, Joan Ray Moreman Whitmore. He is survived by his children; Clifford Sims Whitmore II and wife Linda, Julia Lynn Whitmore Davies and husband John, Mark Cameron Whitmore and wife Lisa. He is also survived by his Grandchildren; Katherine Elise Whitmore, Jennifer Grace Whitmore, Jacob Henery Davies, Cameron Grace Whitmore, Megan Claire Whitmore, and Walker Samuel Whitmore.

Visitation was Sunday, July 9, 2017, at Roller-Christeson Funeral Home.

Funeral service was Monday, July 10, 2017, at CrossRoads Community Church, with Bro. Johnny Walters officiating.

Pallbearers were family and friends.
