Rachele “Rocky “ Kirk, 80, of Benton formerly of Chicago IL, and Taurano Italy, passed away at 2:20 pm Wednesday, July, 23, 2014 at her residence. 

 

Rachele loved her children and her family.  She took care of not only her children but any child that needed her.  She loved to cook for them and her neighbors. Her laugh was infectious, she was selfless and had an innate ability to help others without care for herself, and she was of the Catholic faith.

She was preceded in death by one grandson Jose Jr., and her parents, Aniello Colello and Rosaria Maria Ferraro.   

 

A funeral mass is scheduled for 1:00 pm Saturday, July, 26, 2014 at Milner & Orr Funeral Home of Paducah  with Deacon Terry Larbes  officiating.   Visitation for Rachele will be from 11:00 am until 1:00 pm Saturday, July, 26, 2014 at Milner & Orr Funeral Home of Paducah.
