Our apologies for the delay, but we finally have an update for those of you who were waiting for news of our plans for laying Dad’s ashes to rest in Montana.
Mom has been postponing her much-needed 4th spinal surgery ever since Dad’s diagnosis in 2020. Her newest MRI imaging shows progression of the damage to her nerves. She will now require a larger surgery with a significant recovery time.
Her surgery has been scheduled urgently for May 15, 2023 with an expected 6-12 month recovery time.
This will push out our trip to Montana until next year (Summer 2024). In the meantime, Dad’s Montana ashes will be here in Salem on a bookshelf in his beloved office (pictured).
This will be our last CaringBridge post. We are so thankful for the way this site has allowed us to connect with you. We will let those with Montana addresses know about our plans when they are solidified for next summer. If any of you who are not in MT would also like the information, please let us know and we will add you to our list.
Blessings,
The Kirk Family ♥️
