Not sure what to say?

Kurt Mayer has made me a better person knowing him and his family. Working for him in my 20’s proving to him that I was going to be worth every penny he paid me. He trusted me, gave me confidence and offered good advice that helped me throughout my career. I used his letter of recommendation throughout my job searching which helped me get hired.
I will miss your and never forget you!

Hello Pam, Just thinking of you over this season. We love your family and know this has to be so difficult. Will remember you in our prayers. Love Elaine Meade

My most sincere best wishes go to the family. Kurt,I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to share your thoughts and help you with your goals for your family. You were a great friend and mentor. I will truly miss our conversations.

May your shared memories help you through this very sad time. I feel so honored to have met you and Kurt so recently and it was such a pleasure to talk on the phone while Kurt was in the rehabilitation facility in Tacoma.
May the love of family and friends surround you.

A great legacy that he has given to so many futures. Your kindness will show for generations. Thank you Mr. Mayer, you will be missed.

As a child in high school I remember touring subdivisions with my father that Kurt built and how glowingly my father spoke of Kurt. I remember running into Kurt's mother on the street in Tacoma one day and her telling me that Kurt, as a child in San Francisco, would buy used magazines for a nickel and sell them for eight cents. Kurt was a fine man, a Great real estate man, and a good friend to my father. I shall always remember him fondly.

My heart goes out to his family. His life story is truly a page
out of mans triumphs. When spoken of, Mr. Kurtis Mayer
will be remembered with great reverence.

I will especially miss our email coorespondence and all the humor that he and i shared. I would read some of his jokes and burst out laughing in the middle of the night. I know you are surrounded with the love and prayers of the entire community. Kurt affected so many lives in such a positive way. His...

Dear Pam, Joe, and Natalie,
It keeps being said, but it is so true, if you knew Kurt Mayer, you were a more blessed and enlightened person. I just returned from Israel and wanted to chat with him.
Mr. Mayer, as my young JB called him, has been a household name. He made JB a better lawyer and a better man. I assure you tears fell from his eyes. I love his book, I love his devotion to the Holocaust and will never forget him. Thanks must go to his family for allowing him to be the...
