I am extremely lucky to have the countless hours and memories with Kirk introducing Bekah and I to the most recent technology, art, music or newest build in the basement. I can't thank you enough for letting me spend weeks at your house during the summer and allowing me to 'join' the family for such special times.
I love you guys! -Alli Stamper less
To the creator extraordinaire! You knew how to build anything and everything, and I'm so honored to have gotten a glimpse into the magic of the DuQuette basement workshop. Lizzy and I went through college wanting to be just like you. We still do. Thank... moreTo the creator extraordinaire! You knew how to build anything and everything, and I'm so honored to have gotten a glimpse into the magic of the DuQuette basement workshop. Lizzy and I went through college wanting to be just like you. We still do. Thank you for always supporting my beautiful friend in every endeavor she takes on. Your presence will shine through in all of her projects to come, and I'm so thankful for it. less

There is a series of these photos. Whenever we would get together at our childhood home, we would take our spot on the stairs and would get our photos taken from all directions.
Kirk was an amazing person, artist, musician, a renaissance man who had a remarkable life.
Kirk can never be more than a thought away; for as long as there’s a memory, he will live on in our hearts forever.
Wishing you peace, comfort, courage, and lots... moreKirk was an amazing person, artist, musician, a renaissance man who had a remarkable life.
