Shirley E. Kirk, 73, of Winchester, beloved father, grandfather and great-grandfather; it is with deep and heavy sadness that we announce his death on the early morning of Thursday, June 25, 2015.
Shirley was preceded in death by his parents, Howard and Mary Kirk; and two brothers, Harold and Elwood Kirk.
He is survived by his longtime and loving companion, Brenda Wagner; and three children, Angelia Kirk Brockman, Martin (Diana) Kirk and Julie (Mike) Osborn. He is also survived by four siblings, Jim (Faye) Kirk, Lilly Mae (Marion) Chism, Marjorie (Paul) Sidwell and Ray (Vera) Kirk; six grandchildren, Amanda (Daniel) Wheeler, Mason Kirk, Chase Brockman, Ariel Rivera, Dawson Sinck and Gavin Kirk; and one great-grandchild, Lillian Wheeler. Mr. Kirk is also survived by many other relatives and close family friends.
Shirley was a veteran of the U.S. Army, where he served proudly and honorably. He loved his country and was proud to be an American. The discipline and patriotism he learned in the U.S. Army never left him, as friends and family will attest. After many years working at the Bluegrass Army Depot, Shirley retired and spent his years following doing the things he loved to do, especially fishing at Lake Okeechobee, Florida. Shirley will be fondly remembered as a loving father and grandfather, honored veteran, hard-worker and loyal friend.
Funeral services for Mr. Kirk will be at 2 p.m. Saturday, June 27, at Rolan G. Taylor Funeral Home, 289 S. Main St., with Bro. Anthony Molihan presiding. The family will receive friends from 11 a.m. until the hour of services on Saturday. Burial will be in the Clarmont Memorial Gardens.
Serving as pallbearers will be Mike Osborn, Todd Howard, Mason Kirk, Chase Brockman, Dawson Sinck and Gavin Kirk.
In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to Hospice East, 407 Shoppers Dr., Winchester, KY 40391.
