Kirk was a mountain of a man. Bigger than life, strong, tall, and not easily moved. Kirk had great convictions and was the life of (and host of) the party. I remember spending over 18 hours in his company office one time, trying to get some prototype software to work. I had access to the company coffee machine. It was fruitless but funny. Our trip to Florida was memorable, as I was introduced to the high voltages present in colour television flyback transformers, especially after a hot shower. Zaaap! No one could mix a drink like the Paralyzer. Probably good for felling bears. Kirk was eager to help friends at any hour, selflessly. Surely, one of the finest people I have had the pleasure to call a friend.
