So sorry to hear this news. He is at peace and without pain and suffering, smiling down on his beatiful family.
My thoughts and prayers are with you Kate and your whole family.
I would like to extend my sincere condolences for your loss. I also have lost members of my family to cancer, and I understand the grief and sorrow that you and your family are feeling at this time. As you cherish the fond memories of Kirk, may you find comfort in the Bible-based hope stated at John 5:25-29. One day soon, Our Creator has promised to eliminate death forever! For this reason, Revelation 21:4,5 states that there will be a time (here no earth) when all tears, death, mourning, outcry and pain will be a thing of the past. This hope is faithful and true. Until then, may the promises of Our Creator, bring a measure of comfort to your grieving hearts (2 Corinthians 1:3,4).
I will be thinking about and praying for you and the kids. Kirk was like my own brother. He was a true inspiration to everyone he met, especially me. He was a special uncle to Jess & Brendan. I am thankful to have so many great memories that we have shared. We all loved him very much and will miss him forever. Wish more than anything that I could be there with you. Love, Chris
