Steve Kilpatrick Memorial Fund
Donation protected
My name is Casey Kilpatrick, and my dad, Stephen (Steve) Dale Kilpatrick, born February 27, 1950 in Colorado Springs, CO passed to the Lord on March 9, 2017, after a long battle with cancer. He was surrounded by his siblings.
He is preceded in death by his parents, John F. Kilpatrick, Jr and Patricia Ann Berry Burgeson, also by his niece Hannah Kilpatrick.
He attended Wasson High School, Colorado Springs, and Aurora High School, Aurora, CO. He was a master electrician for many years, a craft he learned from his father. He proudly served as a Seabee in the Navy in Vietnam. During his life he also was a writer, wood designer, web designer.
He is survived by sons, Jason, Richmond, TX; William, Craig, CO; Casey, Lakewood, CO. He is also survived by brothers Reverend Larry Kilpatrick, Greeley, CO; Eric Burgeson, Iceland; and sisters Shara Lewis, Colorado Springs, CO; Kelly I Westphal, Florida; Gloria A D’Arcy, Longmont, CO; Christina Ammon, Phoenix, AZ
While my dad and I weren't close, he never said no whenever I needed help or a place to stay when I visited Colorado Springs. Of all the things my dad taught me, three really stand out. First, he taught me how to play chess, which is a game I still love to this day. Second, he taught me how to shoot pool, and even gave me his highly valuable pool cue set. Third, he taught me how powerful writing can be, and my dad never stopped believing in my ability as a writer adn thinker. For that, I will deeply miss him.
Any funds that you may want to contribue will go directly to the family to cover my dad's funeral service expenses. Unfortunately, because he was so sick and just on VA benefits, he didn't have much money, and his family is now responsible for fully funding the service. Any help we can get would be much appreciated.
A memorial service will be held March 24, 2017 at 11:00 am at Moser Funeral & Cremation Service, 3501 11th Ave, Evans, Colorado. Reverend Larry Kilpatrick officiating.
