Some of us never thought we’d make it this far, Buddy. I hope you looked back at many of our good times and mutual friends. You were a friend to customers in need and gave them a fair shake. May you be getting a fair shake now. And to Gayle too. God bless you both. -winnie

To Mrs. Kirchhoff, Craig, Kathy, Chrissy, and the whole family......my deepest sympathy.
As my dad's friend, Mr. Kirchhoff was part of our lives growing up. From school to sports and I remember seeing him at high-school graduation. The fishing trips and all the help with the cars. I am sorry for your family's loss. He's sitting on the dock fishing with my dad. All our love, the Jacques family❤
