To the Kirk Downing Family,
My deepest symapahy in the loss of such a great humorus person. As J.C.I Senator #09495 i ist meant Kirk at are Buffalo area Senate Club monthly dinner gatherings. He was always the life of the group who stories made you laugh almost every time.

He will sadly be miss by all former Jaycees and Jaycee Senators..

My Dear Cousins,
What a sad day this is for all of us. Not only because you lost your wonderful Dad but because we have lost all of those who guided us through life and made us the kind, caring adults we've become. I took comfort knowing Uncle Kirk was around....and now we are all alone. We will be content with the memories we have of all the holidays and celebrations we spent together with Mae and Joe. They are all together now. May God rest their souls as they watch over us and our...

My condolences to JCI Senator Downing's family and friends.

JCI First Thursday, February 2009

When I attended my first state Jaycee meeting, it was State President Kirk who got my Jaycee juices flowing. While I'm not sure if he should be praised or blamed for that, for me he was always "The Man". I later had the pleasure of teaching computers to both Joanne and grandson Brad and enjoyed many First Thursdays with him. My heartfelt condolences to Barbara and the rest of the family. He will be greatly missed.

Thinking of you and extending our sympathy ...The Crossett Family

It had been a pleasure to know & work with Kirk and family,(Molly @Bfi and Frank @ Edwards. I will always remember his sense of humor and the Zest he had for life.
