Tammy & Family,
I would like to express my deepest sympathies on Kirk's passing. It's been quite a while since I've seen Kirk. As I think about him I'm remembering working with him @ Lynro Manufacturing and all of the funny moments & antics we experienced there. (We were like one big 'dysfunctional' family!) God Bless you all and take care.

Tammy, Nicole and Dakota,

I just wanted to express my deepest sympathies to you all.

Kirk was always a fun-loving guy, able to see the irony in most any situation. Often he was first to crack a joke or laugh, this made him fun to be around. I will always remember the company trips we took and his playful teasing. He will be greatly missed by all.

To the Ellsmore Family,
Words can not begin to express my shock and sympathy. Kirk was a wonderful caring man. We couldn't have asked for a better co-worker; if he could make our jobs any easier, he always did. I will miss him horribly as will the Hill's employees lucky enough to have worked with him and the customers that he was in contact with everyday. Please accept my heartfelt sympathy and know that Kirk will be in my prayers.

Yours truly,
Ardi Stroman
