Pamela Fortenberry Kirk

Memorial service for Mrs. Pamela Fortenberry Kirk will be 5 p.m., Wednesday,

August 12, 2020, at Heucks Retreat Baptist Church. Visitation begins at 4 p.m. at the church.

Mrs. Kirk, 71, of Brookhaven, passed from this life August 7, 2020, at her residence.

She was born in Franklinton, Louisiana, August 22, 1948. Mrs. Pam retired from

teaching many years in the Brookhaven School District. The definition of teacher is a

person who instructs. Mrs. Pam was an excellent instructor, but she was so much more.

She had a passion for each student she met. She not only taught them, she invested in them.

She will be missed by all that loved her.

She is preceded in death by her husband, Dr. Ken Kirk; her parents, Henry Harold Fortenberry

and Marie Morgan Fortenberry; and her daughter, Olivia Kirk.

Those who remain to cherish her memory are her two sons, Kevin Kirk and Alden Kirk and wife,

Kecia; sister, Peggy Purvis; four grandchildren, Madison, Josie, Carter, and Breece;

and other loving family members and friends.

    Mrs Kirk was my mentor. I worked with her and she sub for me when I had my surgery. She was always willing to help anyone who asked her. She loved teaching and the students she taught. She will truly be missed by me and everyone who came in contact with her.
