Elaine and Cindy, so sorry to learn of Kurt’s passing. Ken and I have known Kurt since grade school and hold so many fond and happy memories of him. We always thought of him as family. Our deepest condolences
Rest in peace Kurt! I will always remember the great times we shared together, especially the EMGE School days. Sleep overs at your parent’s house playing pool and making prank phone calls into the wee hours. In the morning we would walk over to Shopland and eat glazed donuts at the lunch counter. Minibikes, your Saturday night newspaper stand at 70th and West Main with the burn barrel in the winter, and your dads “Save with Ray” car stickers. I believe we were the only two students who could make our teacher Mrs. Roth so mad that she would cry. Rest in peace my friend until we meet again!
