My condolences to the family. I am sure Father Kirk will be sorely missed. I will always have such wonderful, sweet and funny memories of, as I refer to him my beloved priest. He was precious. I will remember the Holy Masses he celebrated with us and always his prayer intention for the Holy souls in Purgatory. We were blessed to have him as our priest for a time at St. Philip in Franklin. May he be richly rewarded as always being the good and faithful priestly servant of Our Lord, and may he enter in to his heavenly reward and enjoy the beatific vision with The Trinity, Mary and Joseph, the Saints and Angels. He is loved and missed.

We have so loved Father, a good and holy priest. He was entirely dedicated to his beautiful vocation. His laughter and the twinkle in his eyes spread joy to all of us. He really gave his life to God and God's work on earth. We are so happy he finished well and is now celebrating with Jesus and Mary. We are so thankful to God for him. RIP
