Kurt was one of my closest friends going back to Elementary School where we met in 1st grade and grew together throughout Public Schools and into our later years with family and beyond. I never laughed as hard as I did when we were together. I will always remember him for his compassion, work ethic and willingness to help others and his family. Kathy his wife and daughter Kerry are in my heart and prayers. Rest In Peace my friend

Kurt was not only my cousin, but a true friend of many years. We spent days fishing and working in the past. He was more like a brother to me and will be greatly missed.

Kurt was a friend of many years. Even though we didn´t see one another often, we always connected and shared our family stories when we randomly met. The last time I saw Kurt was at the Huntertown Woodworkers club where he was volunteering for some event. He was a funny guy, always had a ready smile, and was just fun to be around. RIP Kurt.
