George Carver Kirkland

Uncle G…one of my first leading men in my life… Today is the day after laying my dear Uncle to rest…I must say this is an unreal feeling. I know he is with The Father…and there is nothing sweeter than being in the presence of our King. But, I must say, not having my Gentle Giant somewhere in this world makes saddens me. Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal. 🙏🏾 Until we meet again, “I’ll be preparing to meet my Lord”.

To the Kirkland Family- May the Lord comfort your hearts in this time of bereavement. May he grant you all peace and may the continues to sustain you all in unison.

Minister Dañia I love and appreciate you♥️

To the Kirkland Family- may the Lord keep you and comfort you at this time. I pray that peace shall be your portion ever more.

Uncle's words of encouragement and his care checking on me to make sure that I am progressing in the things I am doing concerning my life growth. Is more than enough to keep me a life to time. He share is life with me showing me that I can do what I set out to do in the midst all my challenges that I would face in this life time. Thank you uncle

My deepest Condolences Roncey, Dania and the rest of the family. Find comfort in the great memories you guys shared. One Love

I met Mr Kirkland through his beautiful daughter Dania-Kae when she joined my HR team at KPMG in 2010. He was immediately accepted as an ex- official member of the team, when he drove Dania- Kae all over Kingston to find an item we wanted for a company function. I have never forgotten his kindness and generosity, and knew then that he was a fine gentleman, a great father, and no doubt a wonderful husband. The entire HR Team loved "Daddy" . He will never be forgotten. REST IN PEACE DADDY. May light perpetual shine upon you.

Mr. Kirkland was a quiet and pleasant soul. I remember him always being present at Church. He was very respectful and greeted everyone with a smile. A true father figure. Rest in peace Mr. Kirkland. My sincere condolences to the Kirkland family. May God comfort and keep you all during this difficult time.

To Ron-Cey and Sharon,

My sincere condolences to you both and your families at this time.

My prayer is God will continue to keep you and your families in His embrace and may He pour out the needed strength and encouragement that you will need to face the days ahead!

We Thank God for every good thing!

God bless you both today and always!

with love!

Today I stand not only to remember George C. Kirkland, our beloved friend and brother, but also to celebrate the life of a man who was both a quiet giant and a gentle force of joy. George and I met in church, but when he began courting my big sister Sharon, our paths truly intertwined. As part of their bridal party and as family in faith, I had the privilege of knowing the playful yet profoundly caring side of George.

I fondly called him GK, a big brother of sorts. He showed his love through the little things—like sharing a quiet chuckle over a Sudoku puzzle or offering a warm greeting on a busy day.

But perhaps one of the most touching parts of his life was his tenderness with children. I saw the way he doted on my nephew, Joshua, and how he cared for little LeeChin—Sharon's niece. George’s love for the little ones was a testament to his gentle heart.

To my big sister Sharon, my brother Ron-Cey, and to all the family who loved him: I stand with you, not just in happy times, but also in these tender moments of remembrance. May we always carry forward the laughter and the love he shared with us.

We offer our sincere condolences to the family. May the peace that surpasses all understanding comfort you at this very difficult time.

My sincere condolences to the Kirkland and Biggs Families. May the abiding grace of our Lord continue to be your portion in this time of bereavement. Continue to rest in peace, Sir George Kirkland.

A man of few words, deep contemplation, and optimism. A wise counselor and consistent figure. He stayed committed to those he loved and cared for. Humble and focused.
RIP Sir Kirkland!

Some people leave an imprint on your life not because of how loud they are or how much space they occupy, but because of the quiet strength, kindness and love they consistently give to others.

Uncle George was one of those people.

He was never a giant because of his stature; he was a giant because of his heart. He loved deeply, cared generously, and never hesitated to stand in the gap for those who needed him. I will always remember his warm smile, his willingness to listen, and his steady, reassuring presence.

He leaves behind a legacy of love that will continue to live on in all who had the privilege of knowing him.

My heartfelt condolences to you Ron-Cey and Dania-Kae and the entire family as you grieve the loss of your beloved father. May God’s peace and the many treasured memories you shared sustain you in the days ahead.

Rest well, Uncle George. You were deeply loved, and you will be greatly missed.

. I will always remember George's warm smile and his quiet, gentle spirit. He truly lived up to the name "Gentle Giant"—kind, humble, and caring. The world is a little less bright without him.
Rest in peace. My heartfelt condolences to his family and everyone whose lives he touched. ❤️

Today, we honor and remember a truly good and faithful servant. To know our dear brother was to witness what it means to walk in quiet, steadfast grace. He was a man who embodied true humility, never seeking the applause of the crowd or the center of attention. Instead, he walked through this life with a profound, quiet dignity, his character always reflecting the light of his Savior.His life was defined by altruism and a genuine love for others. Without ever keeping score or making a show of his generosity, he was always there to offer a helping hand, a listening ear, or a word of encouragement. He lived out the biblical calling to "do unto others" with a pure heart and a spirit of selfless giving, quietly bearing the burdens of those around him.Above all, our brother was a man of distinct holiness and righteousness. His faith was not just something he spoke about on Sundays; it was the very fabric of his daily life. He approached God and his fellow men with a deep reverence, his integrity serving as a model and an inspiration to everyone in our church family. You could see his holiness in his patience, his gentle wisdom, and his unconditional love for his church family.While we grieve the physical loss of his presence, we take comfort in knowing that his race has been well run. He fought the good fight, kept the faith, and has now entered into the eternal peace of the Lord he loved and served so deeply.“Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord… that they may rest from their labors, and their works do follow them” (Revelation 14:13).Rest well, good and faithful servant. You will be deeply missed, but your legacy of quiet dignity and righteous living will remain in our hearts forever.

George was a man of few words, yet he was so animated and knew how to keep a lively conversation going whether discussing matters of faith or general topics. It was a joy to see him come out of his shell and be comfortable enough to be so animated, especially when our small group of five met at his house or mine. He even pulled my introverted husband, Sam, out of his shell. As we say goodbye, let us remember his quiet strength and the wisdom he shared. We will cherish those memories. May his soul rest in eternal sweet peace.

Still waters run deep, that was my Uncle G! A man of few words, but a man of substance. If you ever engaged him in conversation, it was clear that he had a relationship with Jesus Christ, and was fully committed to his Lord and Savior! I will forever be grateful that the Lord gave me the opportunity to sit and speak with him in person last year, not knowing that would be the last time we would see each other on this side of eternity. On June 16th, he was on my mind, and I called him, we spoke, and I prayed with him, not knowing two days later, he would be in Glory. God, I thank you for my uncle’s life, thank you for the gift of knowing him and having him in my life. You do all things well!

George, aka Georgie, my namesake 😊 was a quiet, unassuming gentleman. He didn't usually say a lot or initiated a conversation, but when I did engage him in discourse, he was very much present and offered wise insights. I will miss him. Shalom.🙏🏾

RIP Mr. Kirkland. You were such a humble person. I appreciated how gracious you were when school pick up was needed after their mom's untimely passing. Rest well in the Lord.
