"You have no promise that you will see all the seasons of your life... so, say all the things that you want your loved ones to remember"...We believe that Curt did that - he said all of the things that he wanted loved ones to remember. He loved his family and friends so much. We loved him. He will be in our hearts for the rest of our lives. Now, he is at peace. May you have peace also.
