Obituary – Rev. Kirk Massey, Jr.

Psalm 139:16 reminds us that all the days ordained for us were written in God’s book before even one of them came to be.

On October 8, 2024, all the days ordained for Kirk Massey, Jr, were completed and the Lord took him to his heavenly home at the age of 47. Those days were full of blessings.

Since the day of his birth on April 29th, 1977, the Lord has been good to Kirk, and blessed many through Kirk. He had the privilege of attending East Fork Lutheran Elementary and High School and married his high school sweetheart, Sheree. The Lord blessed them with 5 children to raise: Michael, Marcus, Leah, Lindsey, and Meghan.

Kirk continued to be a blessing to many in his community in his work with youth and fathers and then in his eventual calling as a Pastor in the Lutheran church. He was blessed to be able to travel, to teach, to coach, to counsel, and most importantly, to share Jesus.

He loved sports, he loved to learn, but most of all he will be remembered as someone who loved his family and loved Jesus. He was determined to be a good husband and father, determined to raise his children to love Jesus, and determined to share Jesus in his congregation and community. He will be missed here, but we look forward to our reunion with him in heaven.

A viewing was held on Tuesday, October 15, 2024 from 7:00 AM-10:00 AM at the Whiteriver Lutheran Church of the Open Bible. The funeral service was held that same day at 11:00 AM in the East Fork Lutheran School gymnasium.
