August 1, 1972 - April 23, 2021
Steve Kirkby was called to be with the Lord on Friday, April 23, 2021. Steve was born August 1, 1972 in Riverside, CA to parents Noel and Barbara Kirkby. After moving to Arizona, Steve attended Chaparral High School. He found his passion in the electrical field. He loved working with Hayden Electric, which he considered family.
He was a devoted man who loved Jesus, his family, and his many friends dearly. He was a humble and genuine person that had the greatest sense of humor. He was always encouraging, helping others, and was loved for his generous spirit.
He is survived by his loving wife of 28 years, Danelle, his sons Matthew and Austin, two grandchildren Lily and Wyatt, Brother Doug, Sister Kimberly, Father Noel, and all his extended family. He is predeceased by his Mother, Barbara.
Steve lived life every day to the absolute fullest and had many interests and hobbies. He was very mechanical and could fix almost anything. He loved the outdoors, UTV's, flying, and off-road racing. He was a friend to all.
Steve's motto was to "Live each day to the fullest." He will be deeply missed by all.
"You will show me the path of life; in Your presence is fullness of joy; at Your right hand are pleasures forevermore." Psalm 16:11
