This is my stepson's little boy

Kirk Lance Coley was born to Charles Wade Coley and Johnette Blyze Coley. March 10, 1970.

Kirk's daddy died on May 27, 1973 of Acute Leukemia.

Johnette Married Lance Barr on April 22, 1977. in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Lance and Johnette moved to Green River Wyoming where they were living when a tragic accident occured. Kirk was playing around a construction site. Fell into a basement and was caught on a piece of rebar, which hung him. This was such a tragedy and left such a hole in our hearts for our sweet boy he died just a month short of his 9th birthday.

Kirk's funeral services were held on Saturday Feb, 17, 1979 at the Fifth Ward Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
He had a full police funeral as his Dad Lance was a police officer. It was a beautiful Service.

Our dear sweet Kirk. You died Way too Young and will be missed by all who loved you. You are now in heaven with your daddy. (bio by Esther S. Coley Kinder)
