      <![CDATA[People treated him badly when he performed on the streets.  I know what's it's like,  I"m a Portland street performer.  People can be mean, even tho we give a service and make smiles.  I hope that Kirk Reeves Day (Nov. 18th) will change the thinking towards street performers.  Bucket Love  (the new sound of Portland, street musician)

      <![CDATA[from a police update about an hour ago:<br>
<br>
Thanks to a tip from the public, the Oregon State Medical Examiner was able to locate Kirk's sister and notify her of his death.<br>
<br>
Sadly, Kirk was discovered at Bybee Lake in North Portland on Sunday, dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.<br>
<br>
Help is available for community members struggling from a mental health crisis and/or suicidal thoughts. Suicide is preventable.<br>
<br>
Cascadia Behavioral Healthcare has an urgent walk-in clinic, open from 7:00 a.m. to 10:30 p.m., 7 days a week. Payment is not necessary.

      <![CDATA[A number of articles about him quoted him as saying that he had lapsed into a couple of diabetic comas. Those are serious, and can definitely kill you. They also indicate he was in poor control of his blood sugar, which can lead to all kinds of other problems--kidney failure, heart attacks, stroke, etc. RIP, Kirk.
