Mr. Kurtz was one of the first business people who took me into his confidence on how Charleston needed to be improved. He worked quietly with City of Charleston and Charleston County staff to get good ideas moving in the right direction. He was a champion for me in the Jewish Community in Charleston and pushed me into helping people who needed real estate information and advice.
He will be remembered fondly for his dedication to helping people. Prayers for his family and many friends.

May he rest in peace after a fascinating and full life full of learning, generosity, and bravery. My condolences to Mrs. Kurtz and to Charles.

Condolences to his family .

Very sorry for your loss Charles and Florence. We remember Jack as quite an amazing character with an incredible life story. Thinking of you.

Our hearts ache at the passing of Jack. He always had a ready story and a glint in his eye of the stories yet untold. Our family had the pleasure to know him through his son Charles. We will remember him fondly.

From the family of Rev. A. R. Reed,Sr., we are so sorry to hear of the passing of Mr. Kurtz. May the God of All give you comfort during your time of bereavement.

We are so sorry to hear about the passing of Mr. Kurtz. May The Great I Am continue to be a blessing to you and your family Through this time of bereavement.

I knew Jack over the years through his numerous contributions to Rabbi Epstein's study group. We have missed his physical presence for many months and I send heartfelt condolences to Florence, his son Charles, the rest of his family and all those who loved him. Alav ha-shalom
