The sudden loss of a husband, son, brother, friend, and father leads to many unexpected changes.  We have created this GoFundMe at the request of the many individuals looking for a way to support Amanda and her family as they make this difficult transition.  The funds received will be used at Amanda’s discretion for their day-to-day life, for which she is now the sole provider, giving her a measure of relief during this time of processing and grief.  

From life-long relationships to short encounters, Kirk made a lasting, positive impact on the life of everyone he met.  He leaves a void in many of our lives, both in the local community and around the world, and will be greatly missed.
