Kurt was my neighbor for several years in Goddard. I always joked with him about being my surrogate husband. He was always there when I needed a helping hand. One funny memory I have was when I had a new storm door put on the front of my house. I couldn't get it to close. So, I asked Kurt to help me figure it out. All he had to do was push it open a little bit and it closed. He was a wonderful father to his boys. Family was important to him. You will be missed. Rest in Peace.

I am a retired supervisor of Cessna Aircraft. Kurt was a mass properties engineer in our organization and highly respect for his work, personality and his respect for his fellow engineers and friends. He was very much respected by the management of the mass properties group and I wish to express my sympathies to his family for this great loss.

Deepest sympathies to Kris and the rest of the family. I knew Kurt in middle and high school in Goddard and the college and while in our 20´s years. We then drifted apart, but I´ve always thought fondly of the entire family.
I feel for the pool players in heaven! He´s a great pool stick.

I worked with Kurt at Cessna for 15+ years, couldn't have asked for a better friend in and out of work, nicest guy in the world. I'll never forget all our talks in the mornings over his fancy coffee he would bring in, and all his perfectly timed movie quotes and one liners. I am really gonna miss him. My deepest condolences, thoughts and prayers are with his family at this time.
