The Meredith Family,
I am sorry for your loss. May God help you through these painful times. Kurt was a wonderful person. He was true inspiration in my life and to have known him was a blessing in my eyes. If I can be half of the father and husband that I knew him to be, then I may get a passing grade in this lifetime. May God keep the great memories of all the Love that he gave and of the amazing soul that he is, to flow through your minds abundantly. God Bless you.

Kurt,
Thank you for all that you did. You are that almost every person around you felt like they had to emulate. Well, I definitely did. You inspired me. You made me think of what I needed to strengthen in my life to help my wife and children. You will be missed.

Prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury,pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.


O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen
