Obituary for Kirk Alan Bleau
Kirk Alan Bleau of Highland, Michigan passed away on Saturday, December 11, 2021 at the age of 55.
Kirk was born in Detroit, Michigan on August 17, 1966, the oldest son of Nancy Bleau and the late Joseph “Skip” Bleau. His family moved to Milford in in 1973. Kirk graduated from Milford High School in 1984. He lettered all four years in Tennis and played football as well. He also loved playing pond hockey with his brothers and all his friends. As a young man Kirk started working with his Dad learning his trade as a sheet metal worker.
But Kirk had many gifts and talents he shared with the world. Music and art were at the top of that list. Kirk was a talented musician and song writer, and always loved the time he spent playing bass guitar in the band Bent Lucy. His music career also brought him to California for a few years, spending time in Los Angeles before coming back to Michigan. He was also an avid painter, specializing in water color. Kirk was meticulous about his work and his art. He had a keen eye for detail and the ability to bring colors to life.
He was also respected in his field as a sheet metal worker and belonged to the Local 80 Sheet Metal Workers Union following in his Dad’s footsteps. But most of all, Kirk was all about family. He has been a caregiver for his mom, a loving uncle to his brother’s children, and was always the brother that kept in touch and kept everyone together. He always reached out and stayed connected. Kirk was always thinking of others and was generous to his family and friends. Kirk was preceded in death by his father in 2017. Kirk’s legacy will live on through his music and his art.
Beloved son of Nancy and the late Joseph “Skip” Bleau. Dear brother of Eric Bleau and Glen Bleau (Linda). Proud uncle of Niko, Tristan and Tala Bleau.
