Dearest Kurt,
It was my pleasure to have met you
When you lived in Benicia ,Ca. and you lived in your condo with your room mate.
You were so surprised that I figured out your nick name of sort ? I believe it may have been jammer ? Silly it was over your bedroom door.
We had a handful of fun dates and laughs. You looked incredibly handsome in your navy suite and hat. Thanks for the good times. May your children thrive and may God bless them always. Peace and Love friend. Sail on.
