We were saddened to hear of Kirk's passing. He was a reqular at our home when the boys were in their teens and it was always a pleasure having him over. Our most sincere thoughts are with you and your family - Posted by: Bob & Lois Chartier (Parents of Michael Chartier) on: Oct 30, 2013

I met you in a time of my life when I was lonely and you came along and filled the emptiness. I never knew what true love was until you came along. Words can never explain our love it was so deep. The Lord blessed us so much because He allowed us to be together at all times we were inseparable. You taught me so many things I was always amazed at the things you knew. You were so wise and knowledgable. It's hard to express in words what I feel. I loved the stories you would share about your family ecspecially your Dad and brother who left before you. You were always talking about them and how you always missed them so much. You spent your days quiet and I sensed you were a little saddened because you never got over the death of your brother. Just last week you mentioned him on thanksgiving telling my family how you never healed from the loss of him. No one will ever understand how much we loved each other, all you wanted and all I wanted was to be with you. Every second that you were away from me here on earth I would miss you, even if you had to go to an appointment or had errands to run I would always miss you. You told me so many times how I was your life here on earth, that me, Kevin and your mother were always in your heart. I know all the things that took place near the end were of God. You never have to feel sad anymore baby. Please say "hi" to your brother and father and The Lord and your other family members that have passed befor you. You were so lucky that you passed away so peacefully, people only dream of passing away in their sleep. I hear of so many terrible stories of how people pass so terribly but you my love were spared from that kind of ordeal. I would always say that The Lord brought us together for a reason and the reason was for us to come to know The Lord. We gave our lives to The Lord and prayed consistantly and showed love and generosity to all that were around us. I talked to you about The Lord all the time and we would pray on our knees at our bedside to give God honor. We would pray for our families always and prayed God would see us and keep us through to the end. I had such a wonderful time with you the other night in my dreams. You took me leaping and bounding and flying, at one point we came to such a high place and I was a little afraid to leap it looked so far down babe but you held me close and said in such a sweet soft voice "don't worry about it" and we leaped down and then up again. Thank-you for taking me flying it was superb. I thank The Lord for you and will always talk to you cuz I know you're here with me watching over Kevin and your mother and me and the rest of your family. I will never love another because it is you who I get to be with in eternity and I got a glimpse of it when you visited me the other night, I can't wait for that day. I pray it is sooner than not. Because you know Kirk that I couldn't live without you for a minute when you were here in the flesh on earth so how can I live without you now that you're in the spirit world. I need to be with you, so I will go on just doing God's work till the day, which I hope is soon, I reunite with you. You my love are my soul mate and people only wish to have someone as loving and caring as you have been to me. There was nothing you wouldn't do for me. I was treated like a queen. You would always say that I never had to lift a finger I would only do the cleaning and cooking but you did everything else. I couldn't even set an alarm clock without you babe. I love you so much and I pray that God will have mercy on me and take me to you soon as I do his work here on earth. - Posted by: Ankica milardovic (Fiancé ) on: Oct 29, 2013

I would like to give my condolences to Kirk's family, and share with you a couple of childhood memories. I fondly remember back in kindergarten when all the girls thought you were the cutest boy in the school, and at recess time when a few girls were slipping and sliding all over the ice we would run into you just so you could catch us and we could say "Kirk hugged me" ...the things us girls wouldn't do to get your attention. You were such a popular guy even at the young age of 6. I also remember a time when we jumped off of your deck into the huge snow drifts in your parents back yard and OMG if our parents only knew this one... when we jumped off of the roof of your parents' house into the same snow drift. Not the smartest thing to do; but, what a memory. A little while ago our lives crossed paths again at my workplace such a pleasant surprise. I am so glad to have seen you and gotten one last hug. Rest In Peace - Posted by: Donna Miller (Friend) on: Oct 28, 2013

When I heard the news of Kirk my heart was terribly saddened, he was far too young to go. I found peace knowing he is now with his brother Kevin and dad Stanely and many, many other wonderful family members. The last time I saw Kirk was at his dads prayers and it was so nice to chat with him at that time. My heart goes out to Verna and the rest of the family, may his journey home be a wonderful one!! REST IN PEACE my dear COUSIN!!! - Posted by: Louise Lavallee (Cousin) on: Oct 28, 2013

I am truly shocked, and upset to hear about Kirks passing. He was a true friend to me for many years. I considered him more than a friend, more like a brother. I spent more time at his house than my own for many years, and I still have fond memories of those days. Rest in Peace Brother... - Posted by: James Carlisle (Friend) on: Oct 27, 2013

I really appreciate his old school friends commenting. Bryan, Todd. Reed, Lisa....You know, he made me love Rock from the videos you taped! I got introduced to AD/DC, Kiss, Areosmith, Guns N roses, Metallica, Bon Jovi, Run DMC, Beastie Boys...etc When I heard my mom talking to you guys, I felt that Kirk was happy. My mom was happy too. I was too. It really made an impression. - Posted by: Heather (Sister) on: Oct 27, 2013
