I thought about Kirby today, looked him up with my wife, and was so saddened to hear of his passing. I cried. Kirby was one of those people that was genuine, cared, fair, and kind. He was salt of the earth and I truly enjoy spending time with him in business and personally. There aren't many Kirby's in the world, and and I feel grateful that I got to know him. God bless you my friend, you left the type of legacy that is lasting... love.

Buddy was my cousin...and although we hadnt seen each other in over 50 years as soon as we met up it was like yesterday. The kindest, sweetest and most generous human being....with a love for family beyond description. Its more than a loss....a tremendous void to this planet. Buddy was rare human being, a loving friendly nature with compassionate nature. Always ready to help. We are so lucky to have had him on this planet at least 65 years. Im devastated you are gone. Love you so much, Buddy!

Our family had a friendship with Kirby that was for over 40 years. He always said how he felt and meant what he said. He was kind and generous and always had a trick up his sleeve truly an original. Our brother Grant passed away about 1 year ago and was in heaven waiting for Kirby and the 2 of them together makes me wonder just what they will think of doing maybe they can rebuild their submarine

We met Kirby through our son Matthew. He spoke of Kirby many times and we finally had a chance to talk with him at our sons wedding eight years ago. Kirby was a kind person who laughed easily and celebrated life. We are glad to have had the opportunity to share this happy occasion with a man whom Matthew considered a good friend.

Kirby was my friend. I knew Kirby for over thirty five years. I know I will never meet anyone like him again. I cherished our friendship. Kirby was kind, generous, humble and a loyal friend. He always thought of others before himself. Whenever we were together his favorite conversation was inevitably about his wife, his children and his beloved grandchildren. I will miss him greatly!

Will always remember Buddys sweet and generous spirit, his kindness to his step-sister Amy, and step-brother Ron, and his fun loving personality. My prayers go out to the family and all those who loved him. He heals the broken-hearted and binds up their wounds. (Psalm 147:3)
