Lt. Trent A Kirk lost his life on Father’s Day, June 15, 2003 while battling a fire at the Family Dollar in Frayser, TN.

The scholarships will be available for students planning to attend a university, accredited college or school of higher learning in the United States. The scholarships are for the biological children or stepchildren of Fallen Firefighters, Police, EMS, or Sheriff’s Department throughout Shelby County.
