I started with Micro Trains back in 2001 and met Kirk at the "NSC" con here in Medford the following year.  Good guy, really good.  Always happy it seemed.  Over the years he was my go to when I hit research walls and was always willing to go the extra mile to help me out.  Since then we had time to talk at shows we both attended and he was a great reflection on what this hobby is and the folks in it (positive)  He found out I was a Journalist in another life and occasionally offered to save a few pages if I wanted to write anything....but I never took him up on it given my responsibilities here.   In hindsight....

 He'll be greatly missed by anyone who had the pleasure of his company.  RIP

I'm saddened to hear of Kirk's passing.  It's a great loss to the N-scale community and my sincere condolences go out to his friends and family.

Hi Ed:

Probably his brother Bill, when the timing is appropriate.  I may be able to help you connect.


Cheers

Cool. Yes, I'm going to wait for quite a while but I wanted things lined up for when the time comes.

Thanks!

I just got this and I know Kirks friends would like to see it, and maybe post a tribute.

Wow, just seen this..

He did visit the FCN, several years ago..
It was either during Trainfest or during the NSE's Milwaukee Convention in 2013...

One of "N-Scales" Champions...  :(

I'm sorry to hear of this...

He was kind enough to share the story of my layout in his last ink-on-paper edition.
