    Sheila, Murray, Angie and family –

    I am so sorry to hear about the tragic loss of Kirk. He was a couple of grades ahead of me during the school years, so I never knew him all that well.. but he was always very kind and friendly to others, and I will remember that kindness fondly. Please know that our thoughts are with you all at this very difficult time.

    Kristopher & Karen

    I am so sorry to have heard of Kirk’s passing. The obituary mentioned his intelligence, athleticism and humour however I cannot think of him without thinking of how loyal and open he was. We saw each other very infrequently however he never missed an opportunity to stop to talk to me. He always wanted to know what I was doing, if or where I was coaching or to reminisce about his days with the soccer “maniacs” from Brooklyn. We had a few run ins through soccer and hockey however he never ever left me feeling as if he resented any decision I made, even when he disagreed. Regardless of what he did, that grin of his made it difficult to stay mad for too long. He really taught me a great deal.

    Sheila, it is with great sadness upon hearing of Kirk’s passing. When I talked with him on Thursday, we had a great chat about his career as a nurse and about his work at Bowaters. He spoke very fondly of you. I know he was worried about his dad and his neighbor. He seems to be a very passioned guy. It had been a while since I had talked to him, so it was nice to catch up on his career. He was a nice kind, careing person who will be greatly missed. Take care.

    I was shocked to hear about Kirk. I know how difficult this must be, and I want you to know how deeply sorry I am for your loss. When I see Andrew’s love and drive for sports, yet his humbleness about it, I always think “he’s just like Kirk” – his Uncle taught him well. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. I believe a part of him will always live on in your children Angie. Hugs to you all.

    Dear Angela, Andrew, Emily, Kyle & family, Words cannot express how deeply saddened we are to hear of Kirk’s passing. I saw how very much he adored your little family, and in turn, how much love you had had for him. Owen knew him better than I did, but I remember hearing great stories of how much fun they used to have when Kirk was as your house, way back in the babysitting days. Such a loss for you, and also the community. If there is anything we can do Ange xo

    I am so sorry for your loss. You didn’t know me but I knew Kirk. He was one of a kind. Always laughing, joking and having fun. After I had a family we lost touch as time went on. I had been meaning to find out how he was doing. I will now forever regret not trying harder. He will be missed and his memories will remain forever in my mind. Another friend gone too soon. You raised a good one. Thank you for that.

    To Kirk’s Family,

    I’m so sorry for your loss. I met Kirk in 2000 and over the years we became good friends. He was the sweetest, kindest and thoughtful person. Always knew how to put a smile on your face and make you laugh until your belly would ache. Over the years, no matter how much time would pass, out of the blue I’d get a message or a phone call that would last for hours. When we ran into each other it would be like no time had passed at all. I will miss him dearly.

    My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

    Sincerely,
    Tanya Bolivar

    Kirk will be missed by many people, and I offer my heart-fealt condolences to family and everyone who knew him throughout his undeniably short life. The memories we shared will remain — Cold summer mornings, poolside and getting ready to swim and compete for the Milton Dambusters. We were teammates while I played hockey, and Cross Country running, classmates in High School at LRHS, and ultimately at Dalhousie and Eliza Ritchie Hall.

    His memory will live on within us all.

    I am so sorry to hear of Kirks sudden passing. I knew him in university at Dalhousie. We took almost every course together and I always knew if he was in my group we would do well. He was always respectful, friendly and smiling, such a wonderful combination in a difficult course like accounting. He also worked at the gym and again always a warm welcoming smile to greet us on the way in. I find it difficult to believe he is gone so young, the world has lost a wonderful person. My deepest sympathies to your family.
