I don't know you personally Kurt. But I know and see how much your father loves and misses you everyday. We've been together now for 7yrs and not a day goes by where he doesn't think about you. I can't take the hurt and pain away from how your dad feels, but just know that you are always living through him. He loves you so much and he thinks about you everyday! You are his Angel

God took you because he knew the world was turning dark and not what he wanted I just left your resting place I've been so lost without your smile and kindness so hard to find now like that song by the scorpions" there's no one like you".
Daddy's tired no one is hardly ever there for me no one remembers love compassion and understanding the way we did and still do..I see the innocent little eyes I miss you more than I could ever explain..til the day we meet again you were more special than anyone I've ever known..I mean that from the bottom of my weary heart

June,
No words can ever relay the depth of pain, anguish, and grief you feel. May God give you great comfort at this time. Here's a poem for you:

Death of a Child -
Sorry I didn't get to stay.
To laugh and run and play.
To be there by your side.
I'm sorry that I had to die.

God sent me down to be with you,
to make your loving heart anew.
To help you look up and see
Both God and little me.

Mommy, I wish I could stay.
Just like I heard you pray.
But, all the angels did cry
when they told little me goodbye.

God didn't take me cause He's mad.
He didn't send me to make you sad.
But to give us both a chance to be
a love so precious .. don't you see?

Up here no trouble do I see
and the pretty angels sing to me.
The streets of gold is where I play
you'll come here too, mommy, someday.

Until the day you join me here,
I'll love you mommy, dear.
Each breeze you feel and see,
brings love and a kiss from me.

Ron

October 28, 2008

Metalllllllllllllll....I just heard of the passing of your son and wanted to extend to you my deepest sympathies. I am so very sorry for your loss. When my grandmother died, this gave me some comfort: Perhaps they are not stars in the sky, but tiny openings where our loved ones shine down to let us know they are happy.

God Bless you and your family.

joanna

October 28, 2008

As a fond mother, when the day is o'er,
Leads by the hand her little child to bed,
Half willing, half reluctant to be led,
And leave his broken playthings on the floor,
Still gazing at them through the open door,
Nor wholly reassured and comforted
By promises of others in their stead,
Which, though more splendid, may not please him more;
So Nature deals with us, and takes away
Our playthings one by one, and by the hand
Leads us to rest so gently, that we go
Scarce knowing if we wish to go or stay,
Being too full of sleep to understand
How far the unknown transcends the what we know.

Mark, June and Kyle
I was so sorry to hear of Kurt's passing. He was such a wonderful young man. When Kurt first rode my bus, I tried so hard to go so slowly and gently over the speed bumps to make his ride comfortable. Then one day on a field trip to the apple orchard, the dirt road we needed to go down made it impossible to miss the bumps. Kurt began laughing so hard, I realized he liked the bumps! After that day, neither of us could keep from laughing when a bump was coming up. Thanks to Kurt, I will always smile at the bumps. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers here in Conway. We were blessed to have known Kurt.

Kyle the brother Degre

Hope you are walking and running and seeing us from above i loved you more than words can say.. i mean that with all my heart.

You were amazing to watch when you were with us you were so strong and made me realize how unimportant material things are.

To my sweet precious Kurt, how we loved you so very much, you had the most gorgeous blue eyes and that never ending smile. We didn't want to let you go Kurt but God had other plans. You were so very very strong, it was so amazing how you would laugh and be so happy when anyone was in your presence. Kurt all that you went through. You are truly your Daddy's, "SHINING STAR" and Grandma Carole and Grampa Bob's "ANGEL". Mark you were one of the BEST Daddy's that a child could ever ask for. You were ALWAYS there for him. We will never forget that. All the endurance and the strength that God gave to you. We will never forgot how you truly took such wonderful care of your sweet son Kurt as you did Mark. Carole and Bob you were truly the BEST grandparents "outstanding" as some would say and Kurt I am so glad I got to hold you one last time and pray that God would do what was best for you. I can see you right now in God's arms and how you are smiling and smiling as you did on this earth. You will live in our hearts as well as the hearts of others that loved you so very much. We will never ever forget such a sweet and precious great nephew and all that you went through in these past 14 years. As I am typing this now my heart is breaking into pieces but I know that we have to stay strong for you Kurt, there are so many wonderful memories of you instilled in our minds and in our hearts. I could keep typing and typing but I know I have to end this now. Mark, Carole, Bob and Sean stay strong because this is what Kurt would have wanted. We love you all so very much and will never forgot such a precious young boy and how blessed we were to have him in our lifes. With all of our love, prayers and thoughts at this extremely painful and difficult time. May God shine down upon all of you now and forever and ever. Amen. With all of our love, Auntie Lori, Uncle Paul and Faith xoxoxo

Kurt, You are always in our thoughts and prays. I know I haven't known you for long but every day I went to go visit you ,was the best time of my life. I will miss your smile, and holding your hand. I will miss your dad playing the guitar and hearing him sing and talk to you. I will miss sending you pictures of my drawings and seeing you getting excited everytime your dad came into the room. I know you are in heaven now. A place where you will be safe. I will love you forever.

Mr Mark-a.k.a.:daddy B.

October 14, 2008

Kurt its me daddy!!!

I havent been on a computer in days or else i would have been on here as soon as i knew about this!!

You were always since day 1 beyond special and i feel so empty now that you are gone.

I lived to be with you i travelled thru any weather to get to you when i was without a car,i always spent my last penny on you when i had it.

The world is a hard and mean place controlled by greed and mean people it was always nice to be with you and see the other side of life like god intended it..simple and appreciating everything we have and that was you.

There will never be another like you and i will always cherish all the times we had together.

Just seems like it went by too fast.

I will always love you 4ever kurt and i will be back with you someday when god has judgement day.

You were the best kid i ever knew so innocent and happy you always made my day!!

I love you and Will think of you everyday..thats a promise!!

Dearest Kurt, You will live on in our memories and in our hearts forever. You will be missed by all, your beautiful smile will always live on in all. So young and you went through so much, more than anyone could endure but still you always had a smile.
Your daddy Mark will miss you so very much, you were the joy of his life and he carried you through all the bad times. You were the light that lit up the room and the heart of your daddy. When your up there in heaven as I know you will be, look down on him and let your smile help him get through each and every day. He was a wonderful dad to you as I know that you know too. And Gramma Carole and Grandpa Bob will miss you too. You had a wonderful family that loved you so very much and they will miss you each and everyday as will I and everyone you touched.
Love, forever and a day.

I don't know how you managed to be such a happy smiling boy when you had so many surgeries and illnesses, everyone prayed and prayed for you to get better.

You will be missed so much. You have touched many lives and will be forever in our hearts.
