My condolences to the Kurtz family on Marlene's passing. We lived across the street from her and Dave on Spring Street for over 40 years. Couldn't ask for nicer neighbors.

My condolences to the Kurtz family. Both Mr. and Mrs. Kurtz were wonderful people. They used to come to our office just to visit our dog "Buddy" and bring him a treat. Deepest sympathy, All the staff at Bay State Fuel.

What a wonderful lady to have shared the earliest years of my life with. I will never forget Marlene and Sandy and her mother Eva who cared for me from the age of 1 year old. She was a real lady, kind and so strong. We who knew her and Dave are blessed with our memories. Everytime I catch the scent of lilacs I think of playing in her yard during my happiest times. God bless you Marlene as you join the wonderful people who have waited for you!
With so much love, Bobby
