Karen, I can't believe how long I have known you and Kirby. I have a difficult time facing the fact that he has passed. My fondest memory of him was probably the last summer we were at Torch Lake and we were sitting by the lake chatting. It was the last time we talked and it was a joy. I wish we would have spent more time with the two of you. I will remember his smiling face always. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Bob V L and I and Karen visited Kirby recently. We laughed, shared memories, and Kirby even told a joke! We shared hugs and left Kirby with a smile on his face! It is a great memory!
Kirby will be missed. I consider it a privilege to know Kirby. He was a wonderful man full of encouragement and love. Love you Kirbs. Rest in peace. I'll keep an eye on the neighborhood!
When I think of Kirby I always think of all the laughs we had. he had great sence of humor.
