Robert Jason Kirby Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Robert Jason Kirby, 47 years old, was born in Pauls Valley, Oklahoma to Robert D. and Vicki Kirby. Robert resided in Pocahontas, Arkansas. After having a pulmonary embolism, he left this earth to be present with the Lord on April 16th, 2018. When living in Pauls Valley, Robert attended Trinity Baptist Church and became a Christian on one of the many years he attended Falls Creek. Robert was strong in his faith in God. Robert was known as Jason growing up, attended school at Whitebead until the 8th grade, then attended Pauls Valley High School where he was known as “Guns”. Though short in stature he was great in strength. He loved his weightlifting, but mostly, his football. He graduated from Pauls Valley High School in 1989. He went on to get his bachelor’s degree in social work from East Central University and then Master’s degree from the University of Texas at Arlington. He was a psychotherapist for 23 years and for most of his career worked as a behavioral therapist at the Lord’s Ranch in Pocahontas, Arkansas. He got great satisfaction from helping the children at the Lord’s ranch as well as his clients when doing outpatient and home treatments for family/marriage and drug counseling. He worked tirelessly providing services to clients and cared for each of them. Robert recently became engaged to Ashley Fowler. He was so happy to have her in his life and had made many plans preparing for their future. We are so grateful she was with him, especially the night of his sudden illness. He loved his God, his fiancée`, all his family, his Labrador retriever, his OU football and his country. He was a good friend with a quiet spirit. He is already missed by many. Robert “Jason” is a Christian. He’s now absent from this body and present with the Lord. We that are left saddened by his death are grateful that he was met in Heaven by Jesus himself. Robert “Jason” is survived by his mother and father, his sister Tara Kirby; nephew Zakry Kirby; aunt and uncle Carolyn and Bill Hamby; cousin Gina & James Allen and children; Emilie Irvin and children.
