Curtis G. Koch

Dear Mrs. Koch, I was deeply saddened to learn from my sister of Curtis's death in May. Mary and I knew the Koch family for most of our lives, as our mother and Carlene (and Odelia) worked together @
W. T. Grant's in Quincy. I have so many memories of Curtis, from childhood through early adult years. The earliest memory I have of him was his 6th birthday party at his grandmother's. Years later, we were friends and dated off and on. I last saw Curtis at the Quincy Mall in the...

Carole,
I, too, am a classmate of Curtis's. My greatest memory is going to State and how happy everyone was. You have my deepest sympathy. Just know he was loved and will be remembered with lots of smiles.

Carol,
My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Carole, please accept my sincerest condolences on your loss. I was deeply saddened to hear of Curtis' passing. I knew Curtis from our 8 years at St. Boniface school and 4 years of high school. The last time I saw him was at our 20 year high school reunion in 1990. I will always remember his great sense of humor and his blonde crew cut. God bless you and your family.

Carole,
Please accept my sincere sympathy during these trying times. I will always remember the intricacies of Curtis' way of keeping things hopping at the WRA. He was a bonafide professional and yet the greatest joker. Underneath those sometimes ruffled feathers was a gentle giant. Curtis is missed by many but leaves behind memories that we hold in our hearts forever. May he rest in peace. God bless you Carole.

Dear Carole:
I was truly sorry to hear about Curt's passing. Curt and I grew up together and spent most summers together during our grade school years. He lived across the alley from me. We were is scouts together and his parents included me in many family activities. When I think back on my childhood, Curt is always the first person that I remember! Curt was a very special person and I will always remember him fondly.

As members of the Bureau family, Gary and I send our deepest sympathy to you and your family.

No words are sufficient to the moment but Curtis was more capable than anyone I've ever
known in his ability to bring a smile
and a laugh to my face. Friend and
teammate forever. Bless you man.
