It is with great sadness that the family of McKayla Brooke Kirk announce her passing on Friday, February 12, 2021 at age 19. McKayla went to be with the angels following a tragic vehicle accident in Oak Hill, WV. McKayla was born in Beckley, WV on January 2, 2002. She is a graduate of Midland Trail High School and was studying at Marshall University in Pre-med. McKayla was kind, smart, and ambitious. She could light up a room anywhere with her beautiful smile and spirit. McKayla was a devoted friend and animal lover. She was passionate about animal rescue, photography, travel, and modeling. McKayla will have the opportunity to continue to help others through CORE with organ recovery and education.

The family would like to thank the first responders of Oak Hill Police Dept, Fayette County Sheriff’s Dept, West Virginia State Police, ambulance and fire department personnel, staff at Plateau Medical Center and the overwhelming support received by our community, law enforcement family, schools, and many friends and family.
