My sons grew up with the Nicholls boys and my son Hayden was at one time best friends with Kurt. He was a good friend to him and was a great influence to him as well. Kurt lived life to the fullest and he will be missed by all that knew him and loved him! My heart is heavy with his passing and my prayers go out to his family. It is a journey we all must make and I am sure that Kurt will make this journey like he lived his life, with zest and gusto! Good bye Kurt and Godspeed!

I was Kurt’s best friend growing up, and we have not talked in years now. I just found out today that he has passed on, and I was overwhelmed with sadness and many great memories. I hope his girls will always know what a great person he was and the friendship and support that he gave to all. I wish I had have known him more in our latter years, I am sure he was just as much fun now as he was then. Kurt had a zest for life and lived it to the fullest I had always hoped we would get in touch again and now I have lost the chance. Steve, Stephanie and Kurt’s family and friends I can only hope that all of the good memories stay with you for all time.



Goodbye Kurt.

Dear Steve and Stephanie,



My wife, Charmaine, called me last night and gave me the bad news about your son, Steve, passing away. Charmaine and I want to convey our condolences to you, your wife and the rest of your family. Even though we only see each other once in a while I think of you and your family often. Just remember the Nicholls have always been strong. I believe grandma Alta was there to greet your son Steve on the otherside. I promise to come and visit you and your wife this year. God bless you and your family.
