Kurt was a neighbor on Ambassador Drive in Pine Hills and the big left handed first baseman on my baseball team. May God bless the Kreinheder family.

We are very sorry for your loss. If you were lucky enough to know Kurt you saw what a great Father , Husband and Business owner was like. . He knew one speed - " Get it Done" , whether it was his work at Pepsi , Kreinhheder and Son , vacations or investing in real estate , he always did it right. As busy as he always was - he always took time to stop and give an update on his familey , a recent trip to the Keys , politics or to just say hello to our dogs. He was proud of Kayla , Josh and Julie's accomplishments in school and work . If you were lucky enough to know Kurt , you know he was a thoughtful , intellegent , hard working person that lived a full , but far too short life . Kurt was an inspiration to many and will be greatly missed by all who knew him . He will always be in our thoughts. Dan , Alice , Christine and Elizabeth Cavallo

I also worked with Kurt at Fairway Market and especially remember his "FINE" Chevelle. What a wonderful fellow he was then, so sorry I lost touch with him but those pictures were a heartwarming tribute. No words can heal the pain but please know what a positive influence your husband, father, brother, and friend had on our little corner of Pine Hills. Wishing God's Blessings on the Kreinheder family and all Kurt's Friends. He will not be forgotten!

Kurt was the only friend that I knew who could give my brother a run for his money when it came to a discussion about anything. I loved listening to the two of the discuss, wink wink, current events, cars or sports. He was a great family man and a good friend to all that knew him. My brother Patrick will surely miss his best buddy Kurt as well our entire family. I give my prayers and deepest sympathy to Julie and Family. I would also like to state that I will be running in the half marathon at Disney in October for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, I will do this in memory of Kurt. With thoughts and love, Catherine Carosone, Longwood, Florida

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
