There are some souls who walk this earth so full of love, light, and grace that their absence leaves the world a little quieter, a little emptier. Amy Reigle Kirk was one of those rare souls.

She wasn’t just a wife, a mother, a friend, or a grandmother, she was everything. The soft hands that wiped away tears. The warm meals that gathered us around the table. The voice that could calm any worry. The rock that held our entire family together, year after year, season after season, without ever asking for recognition or thanks. To know her was to love her.

Her love story with her husband was nothing short of a fairytale, full of devotion, joy, and magic. They were each other’s soulmates, sharing decades of laughter, favorite shows, slow dances in the kitchen, and a love that never faded.

Amy was a devoted mother to her two children, one daughter and one son, whom she loved with every fiber of her being. From the moment they entered the world, she became their fiercest protector, their constant guide, and their greatest champion. No matter the circumstances, she stood by their side, offering strength when they felt weak and love when they felt lost. She believed in them without hesitation, fought for them without question, and poured her entire soul into helping them become the people they are today.

She loved her grandchildren with a depth and fierceness that words can hardly capture. To her, we were never too old to be hugged tight, spoiled a little extra, or reminded just how special we were. She celebrated our every milestone, comforted us through every heartbreak, and believed in us even when we didn’t believe in ourselves. In her eyes, we were perfect simply because we were hers, and that kind of love shaped us in ways that will last a lifetime.

Her Yorkies were her constant companions, small in size, but huge in heart. She adored them like family, and they adored her in return, faithfully by her side in every season of life. Amy would bring her pups everywhere she went, on the airplane or the 16 hour car rides to Florida.

Together with her beloved husband, she helped build their family business, Kirk’s Auto Body Inc., from the ground up. Amy was raised amongst her brothers on her father’s salvage yards. She had always been surrounded by cars and tow trucks leading up to meeting her husband William Kirk. Together they pursued their passions and opened Kirk’s Auto Body Inc. She continued to live the life she grew up in. She would operate tow trucks along side William up until the birth of her son. She remained running the office for many years to follow. In her later years, she helped with the office and even brought a rollback out to multi car accidents. Side by side, they poured their hearts into something that would stand as a symbol of their hard work, their unity, and their shared dreams. She was the backbone, the one who kept things running smoothly, who managed with grace, and who brought warmth and care into every corner of the business.

Her compassion for others was evident in countless ways, especially through her involvement in Shop with a Cop, a program close to her heart. Each Christmas season, she took great joy in helping families in need, carefully selecting gifts and essentials to ensure children would feel the warmth of the holiday spirit. Her generosity wasn’t about obligation; it came from a deep, genuine desire to lift others up and make them feel seen and cared for.

Sunday night dinners were a treasured tradition, filled with joy, laughter, and her delicious cooking. Holidays and family celebrations were her time to shine, and were a true reflection of her spirit, creating an atmosphere where everyone felt welcomed, loved, and completely at home.

But her heart belonged to the sea. Florida’s beaches were her sanctuary, the place where she felt most alive, most at peace. The ocean breeze, the sun on her face, the sound of waves, these were the things that brought her soul serenity. The beach was more than just a destination, it was a source of joy, reflection, and connection, where she felt closest to the beauty of life and the love of her family.

Amy didn’t just care, she carried. She carried all of us when we didn’t know how. And somehow, she always knew what we needed. She gave without keeping count. Loved without condition. Forgave without hesitation. We don’t know how to be a family without her, but we know she would want us to hold each other close, to keep laughing, to keep loving the way she did, with everything we have. Her kindness and strength touched everyone she met, and her memory will continue to guide us and comfort us. She was our inspiration. Her absence leaves a space that can never be filled, but her memory will live in every game played, every garden planted, every family meal shared, and every walk along the shore.

We will miss you forever. And every time the waves kiss the sand, we will think of you.
