Virginia, Julie and Jen; I am so sad that your husband and father, Martin has died. What a great person. I have so many fond memories of him; his little smirk of a smile, his dry humor and his kindness and love for his family. I will keep you in my prayers.
Asking God to comfort all of you during this heartbreaking time. Sending love and hugs. Vicki Tederman

Judy and I have fond memories of the Kurtz family from years at West Hills and later at randon encounters including gospel nights in Council Bluffs. Your talents and friendship are highly valued. You will be missed. Sing with the angels!

RIP, love you. I remember all the special times around the holidays in my younger days. Very musical family. Music has been a big part of my life. Didn't spend a whole lot of time together, but when we ran into each other it was like we had been. Love you guys dearly.
