Dear Jane, Carolyn, Roger and David.
My thoughts are with you during this time of loss. I have many fond memories of Curt. As my uncle, he took me under his wing and introduced me to the world outside. Backpacking, camping, sking, skating and so much more. He touched many people in his life. He will be missed.
