Kirk, I will certainly miss our conversations we had when I brought my daughter Sky, over for piano lessons. I loved to look through your many recipe books and talk about great entrees with you. You were such a talented man who has planted music into the hearts of many people. These people will carry on your legacy. The beautiful piano in your home may sit silent, but I know you are singing and praising in Heaven. It is my pleasure to have known you for so many years. Thank you for teaching me those silly little voice exercises (like the speedboat) lol. They do actually work!!! I will truly miss you Kirk, but I will see you again one day, I am certain! Everytime I sing... I will think of you!

Kirk had a special gift of his music talent, which he shared with us at St. John in Bellevue,KY. Every Sunday, he sang/played the piano at church he touched our hearts. My Mother and I were good fans. I play his song "Like a Child" on a regular basis as it is beautiful and has such meaning. Also, he blessed us all with his sincere soul and kindness. I have not seen Kirk for years, but have and will hear him for many, many years. Well done good servant. Sincere sympathy and prayers for Nancy.

So sad to learn of Kirk's passing! As a cousin of similar age, I've grown up hearing about his accomplishments, and was glad whenever our paths did cross. Kirk's talents and presence will be sorely missed by everyone who's life he touched!

I haven't seen Kirk in years but always was impressed with his ability to play piano and his beautiful singing voice. Kirk was a filler at my church St. John UCC in Bellevue, Ky when we were between choir/director organist. I always regretted not to have bought one of his c.d's. Many times in church I wandered if Kirk would ever come back to play and sing. My sympthy goes to Kirk and his family. Nancy will miss him terrribly.
