• I just heard of the passing today, and am deeply sorry it has happened. I hadn't spoken to Kirk in six years, but remember him as a funny outgoing guy. He seemed quite disciplined and a confident person when we spoke last. He also had some good recipe ideas. I remember all the fun and mischief Kirk, Trevor, myself and all our neighborhood gang used to have as kids...My deepest condolences to the family. - Posted by: Jim Trimble (old friend) on: Feb 16, 2012

• I didn't know Kirk but I've been on both sides of his situation so know the sorrow and agony of both. I suffered from major depressive disorder for most of my life and was at the edge of the precipice several times. There were innumerable meds that were tried, assorted therapeutic interventions. It took 40 years to resolve. No one who has not been there themselves can really grasp the depth of the despair or the sense of hopelessness that obliterates objectivity, reality and reason. I had a loving, supportive family but in times of despair, I still felt alone and without hope. No family should EVER feel they could have or should have done anything differently, that they should have seen something they didn't. On the other side, I was very much in love with someone who chose the path Kirk did. I didn't see it coming, even as someone who walked that path and felt that despair. It was only my own battle with depression that made it possible to accept what happened and to do so without guilt or self-criticism. It is my hope that Kirk's parents and all those who loved him find peace and can accept that there ought to be no guilt, shame or blame attached to being close to someone who chooses this path. There was in all likelihood nothing to see, nothing to do differently. - Posted by: Gord Richardson ([none]) on: Feb 04, 2012
