Obituary
The world lost a special soul when Kirk T. Gee was called home on January 2nd, 2018. All that he taught us, all those good memories, and his heart will stay with us always. He had a gift for accepting people, which allowed the best side of people to shine. Kirk loved to show off his Dad’s GTO at local car shows. As well, to teach, helping people polish themselves and grow new skills, like boxing, skateboarding, and car restoration. His laugh will be missed, and it was always his endeavor to make others laugh.
Kirk also had a need for speed! From his roots of street racing in San Francisco to the local drag strip on Maui. Kirk was well known as a drag racer and car enthusiast. Cruising in his cars, especially with Tia the dog, was a favorite pastime. Vehicles of all kinds spoke to Kirk, taking time to restore them, and fixing classic cars was a lifelong pursuit.
His passion for helping those in need, will live on in the people who loved him. He leaves behind many loving family and friends, spanning from Whatcom county, San Francisco, Hawaii, Canada, and England. Kirk is survived by his daughters, Kailey and Brittany, his dog Tia, his grandkids Isis, Chewy, and soon-to-be grandson, Kirk T. Gee Jr. on 4/20/2018.
A servive will be held at St Brendan’s Church, 29 Rockaway Ave, San Francisco Ca 94127 at 11:00am on Monday January 22nd, 2018.

He was an amazing person whom I will always cherish. He was a great gift of friendship to my brother Frankie Perez in Maui Hawaii. Who has since passed. Kirk helped me and my family feel welcome and took care of us during our loss. He became a friend and brother like to me, I will miss him dearly I always felt secure with his “Likes” on Facebook. I just can’t believe this!! I am so sad and can’t stop crying as like my brothers loss. He is in my heart always. What makes me happy is thinking he is in good company with my brother talking about the good ole days. RIP my brother I Love you and will miss you! Lulu

Grief, loss, death, mourning. Man, life can be tough. It is crazy how hearing one sentence can cause your life and the lives of those around you to cease for awhile. It sucks you into a place where everything else in the world that matters to you fades to black and you are thrust into this polarized world full of pain, shock, uncertainty and chaos. With Death comes being forced to deal with the best and worst of humanity. As a Mom, all I want to do is throw myself in front of it all and protect my daughters from the bad stuff, the pain, the anguish…everything. But, I cannot. This is something I can’t make better, or chase away. This is the worst kind of pain…they lost their Dad…far to soon and far to sudden. Death makes life feel “real”, makes us all think of our mortality and the mortality of all those around us we cherish. It makes you realize that you don’t want any missed opportunities to tell people how you feel, missed opportunities to spend time together and make precious memories. Life is about the people in it. The people who love you, care about you and make your life fuller.
My daughters are grieving the loss of their Dad, I’m grieving the loss of my partner in parenting, my friend and my rock I leaned on when scared in this world. He made everything feel like it would be okay.
Grief. Loss. Death. Mourning. It comes on fast, it comes on furiously and it leaves you a completely different person than you were when it arrived.
Rest in love Kirk. I will take over for you and protect these girls with my own life. We will keep you alive always in our hearts and in the life of our precious grandson arriving soon. You were loved by so many people, and changed so many lives for better. I know you have earned your wings.
❤️ Aloha, a hui hou Kirk. ❤️

I met Kirk back in 1979, we became friends very quickly. I’d say he was possibly the most like able person I’ve ever known. Kirk always had more friends than anyone, he’d give you his last dime. I spent a few months in Maui with him back in the 80’s there wasn’t one night that Kirk wasn’t invited to a party. I am very sad to hear of his passing, there’s no doubt he’s in a special place.
