I always enjoyed seeing Jim over the years.
God Bless Norine, Jim and their family.
Ed Cosgrove, Atty.

Norine and Family,

So, so sorry for your loss. What a great man!  It’s ironic how this has turned out knowing that Jimmy was not only Dad’s cousin,  but his best friend.  I know in my heart the two of them are up there with martini glasses in their hands just talking and laughing. 

You are in my thoughts.

Lisa & Family

So sorry to hear of "Mr. Kirk's" death.  What a great guy - although he had great professional success in the law, his priority was always his family.  He was steady, easygoing, and just devoted to Mrs. Kirk and his children.  I remember him telling a story of discovering one of his suits missing - and then seeing a man wearing it when he and Mrs. Kirk travelled to Ireland - she had given it away.  He just grinned and shook his head.  They were a perfect match.  Sending condolences to Katie, Michael, Therese, Jim and Megan - and a big hug to Mrs Kirk.

Norine, my Friend.  So sorry to hear of Jim’s passing; you guys had quite a life!
I am sorry I didn’t get to the wake or funeral, but Rich & I hold a pretty strict line on avoiding crowds,and I suspect all of S. Buf was there, but please know I think of you so often, and will continue to do so.  Much love & affection to you & your family. Sue Leisner

Dear Norine & Family,  I am so sad about the loss of Jim. It is hard to accept because of the love his family had for him, and mere acquaintances like myself are grieving for Jim, Norine, and his beloved family.  Ruth Mohn

Our sincere condolences to Jim Kirkpatrick's family upon his departure from this earth.
I lived a block from Jim in Kenmore. He attended the cadet school at Stella Niagara. We became classmates again at Canisius High School. We remained in contact until very recent years mostly through the monthly breakfast meetings of our class.
He will be missed by all of us!
Jim Kropelin

Dear Norine.  I have been thinking of you and Mike lately.  There have been many memories of the Canisius College glee club manager.   He managed to enjoy their fun even if he didn’t solo.   We will always remember him smiling    Our prayer are with  you and your family.    Sylvia and Frank
