Steve and Laura, Beth and I just heard the news. This is so heartbreaking. When we last met on Lake Minnetonka you mention that Kort had found his passion. We wish we had words to comfort but please know that we stand with you in grief and that we pray for you and your family for a quick understanding of why. We plan to be at the funeral tomorrow and hope we can offer our condolences personally. Thoughts and prayers, Glenn and Beth Miller.

Heartfelt thoughts and prayers are with you all.

To Kort's family,
I was Kort's roommate for over a year at UMD, where we were Resident Advisors. I have many fond memories of Kort and want to extend my sincerest condolences on your loss.

Kort was one of the best influences that the students we worked with (mostly freshmen) had the privilege of interacting with. Kort was genuine and a good friend to all that had the privilege of meeting him.

Although, we fell out of regular communication, he would regularly send me random...

So sorry for your loss. Our girls, Briana and Brooke remember Kort fondly. We hope you find peace.

To Kort's family and friends,
I am so very sorry for this profound loss in your lives. I knew Kort as a little boy in first grade when I was his teacher. I last saw him when I attended his graduation. That group of first graders was so very special, and I just had to be there to see them graduate.
I pray you will find peace and comfort in the days ahead. I know many people are praying for you, and that includes me.
Blessings, Pat Michaelson
