"Chiropractic has show horses, and we have work horses." observed ACA Governor James Edwards,DC (Kansas). "Dr. Kieffer has been a work horse who has pulled chiropractic's plow for decades. This profession owes him a debt of gratitude that can never be repaid."

Dr. Kieffer is survived by his loving wife of 29 years, Darlene; children, John, Jessica, Patricia, Robert, Jeffery, Michelle, and LeAnne; 16 grandchildren; and many friends. Another son, Harold Jr., preceded Dr. Kieffer's death.
