Date of Birth: February 7, 1954

Date of Death: May 9, 1992 Madrid, Spain

Age at Death: 38

Kirk was born in Cincinnati, Ohio to Mona & Walt Hoffmeier. He was their third live birth after daughter Toni and another son who died at the age of 3, before Kirk was born. Most people seem to think it weird that Mona actually reused the name Kirk for her new boy. As Mona told me years later, with a shrug of the shoulders, "I just like the name."


It was by some cosmic accident that Kirk grew up in Northern Kentucky and attended public school. Not that he had any predestination delusions or anything, but he could not help feeling that was never meant to be there. Anyone who knew him well later in life and who knew that area or the world, knows what this means. I can relate since we were both from the same place but it was for not all the same reasons that I did not fit in. In fact, I still imagine that I might have ended up resigning myself to a long miserable life in that hellhole if I had not been liberated as I was when my long-time deep and secret high-school crush on Kirk finally exploded into a fully-reciprocated volcano of passion and defiance when we fell in love.
