My condolences to Kirbys family. Sorry to hear of his passing.
Clara, in our journey though life we meet some very special people and for me Kirby Berdan was one of those people. I have known Kirby for many years from when he coached the Dunlop hockey team to working with Kirby at ED Smith. Kirby’s dedication and work ethic was unmatched by any I have worked with past or present. Kirby always had a sharp wit and a passion for whatever he was involved in weather it was work, hockey or especially family. I will truly miss Kirby.
Our deepest condolences from our family to yours. Kirby was a great person to work with. He will always be remembered for having a great smile and an infectious laugh! Our thoughts are with you at this difficult time.
Sorry for your loss,Clara….he was a happy, nice man…..Always had a big smile when he came to see us at the bank……Muriel
Clara and family: My thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time. Kirby was a wonderful guy.
I first met Kirby when I led Exeter’s Playground Program, this was over 50 years ago, Kirby was probably 9, I was in my 14th year. What a delightful child he was! Fun. Bright. Full of boundless energy. Whenever we have met on the streets of Exeter through the years, Kirby and I would reminisce of those golden summer days.
Rest well Kirby. You have brought joy and love to all who have had the blessing of crossing your path.
Most Sincerely,
Jo-Anne Dinney Hodgins
It seems like so long ago since I last ran into Kirby, we grew up together, he was a very kind and gentle man,

Very sorry to hear this news. When my Daughter told me to was expecting her first baby. The name had to Begin with ” K” I dubbed my grand baby “Kirby”. My daughter said where did you get that name? I replied the only one I knew was a guy I worked with. Gentle soul made you smile. Loved to laugh. And had a heart of gold. Condolences xo. R.I.P KMAN
Clara and family, we are very sorry on Kirby’s passing. He was a friendly man, always smiling. Cherish your happy memories. Hugs and prayers,George and Sue Wilson
I woke up this morning thinking about cousin Kirby and how much extended family has been missed, especially over the last few years with COVID.
I will always remember how much fun Kirby was to interact with. He was always jovial and laughing when we would see him at birthdays and family events, reunions, and family picnics. As kids we loved his jokes and laughter.
It’s hard to believe four years has already come and gone. As we near the anniversary of his passing, know that his memory lives on.
