Myrna and family, Please accept my sincere sympathy and prayers at this most difficult time. God bless you. Mary Sharpless Davis
So sorry for your loss Myrna. You and your family will be in my prayers. May the Lord give you comfort at this time. With love. Phyllis Babcock Ralston.
Art and I were honored to know Kirk and the Smith family. We have so many fond memories. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Kirk was one of the finest men I've ever known. With a great sense of humor he could converse on anything from politics to country music, always with humble insight that informed you that he was educated without him having to brag about it. He was a man who everyone should have known. I certainly enjoyed his company and I can only think of the pain and sense of loss the family is feeling.
You will never die, Kirk. Your name will be on the lips of all of us who did know you until we, too, shall pass.
I can only hope for future editions of dictionaries to have your picture next to the word 'gentleman' for you epitomized it.
You are now free to enjoy all of God's golf courses with a perfect body. Just remember to put that ball marker BEHIND the ball once you get on the green.
God bless you, Kirk. You are greatly missed by even those who knew you but briefly and this is a fine legacy for a fine man.

Myrna - my wonderful dear friend, Myrna - - my heart is aching for you and all your family. - Its so very hard to express the sorrow that both Peter and I are feeling right now - the loss of Kirk deeply affects us. He was definitely one of the”good guys”! And those long legs - distinguished white hair- piercing blue eyes- - and his kind and gentle manner....Kirk was one of a kind and will be greatly missed. Many happy memories to reflect upon.....Myrna - I love you - as you have ALWAYS been there for me and my family, please know that we will always be here for you, in any way you need. You have a very special family - our hearts and love go out to all - Ronda, Lisa, Jana - all of you - stay strong and revel in the memories of a wonderful man!

Myrna, Dana and I are so sorry for your loss. I know everyone thought the world of Kirk. Our condolences.
Myrna, Ronda and family: I was shocked and saddened to read of Kirk's passing in the paper this morning. The memories flooded in as I thought of all the wonderful times we shared. When thinking of Kirk I will always see him driving on Belcher Road pulling his fishing boat behind. Just to name a few, I remember the trip to New England to see the leaves and our search for the golf course I believe Kirk used to own as we drove through New Hampshire and Vermont; the week of sailing in the American and British Virgin Islands; and, of course, all of the tennis matches with Kirk as my partner when we would beat you and Jerry (we did beat you and Jerry, right?). Myrna, please know that I will always be here for you. The days ahead will be difficult but all of the wonderful memories that you and Kirk have built together will come rushing through to sustain you. Kirk was a man of few words but the slight smile on his face said everything. Rest In Peace Kirk and now you and Jerry can fish or play tennis together. All my love, Linda Parker
First time with a golf club in my hand at a Mystery outing hosted by Kirk and Myrna at a little par three golf course in Clearwater. Loved it and he created a monster as I love golf now and play often. Bill and I thought very highly of Kirk and he will be missed.
