So sorry for your loss. Curt was a great guy. I'll always remember visiting with my dad. Playing pool with him, and trying to sneak and play with his amazing star wars collection. My father Mike sends his condolences.

Tao and Nancy, sorry for your loss. It seems like only yesterday when Curt would come to Stark Pool and wrestle me in the pool! My thoughts are with you both.
