Kelly Gordon Kirk, age 55, passed away on September 25, 2024 in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Kelly was born on February 16, 1969 in Tulsa to parents Martha Smith Kirk and Gordon Dean Kirk. He graduated from Malvern Preparatory School in Malvern, Pennsylvania in the class of 1987 then continued his education and football career at Juniata College in Huntingdon, Pennsylvania.
In 1988 Kelly moved to Tulsa, where he worked for many years in the food industry, and later in sales and customer service.
