I was honored to spend a good part of my life with Kurt. He always knew how to make me smile or laugh. We had our ups and downs but I will always have a special place in my heart for him. I can picture him meeting his racing heros Dale Earnhardt and Alan Kulwicki having a cold Bud Lite. God Bless.
Perhaps they are not the stars, but rather openings in Heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy. ~Author Unknown

We little new that morning that God
was going to call your name
in life we loved you dearly
in death we do the same
It broke our hearts to lose you,
You did not go alone;
For part of us went with you
The day God called you home.
You left us peaceful memories,
Your love is still our guide;
And though we cannot see you,
You are always at our side.
Our chain has been broken,
And nothing seems the same;
But as God calls us, one by one,
The Chain will link again.
Rest in peace Kurt!
You are loved and missed!

My brother Al Seman and Kurt were the best of friends when they were younger and continued they friendship later into adulthood. I want to wish all the family my deepest and sincerest condolences on the unexpected death of Kurt. I will always have found memories of the two annoying the heck out of me and my sister Abbi. I will also remember the two of them and Kelley Mulcahey hanging out down at Riverside Park. When I heard of Kurt's death all I could think about was my brother and Kurt are in heaven together having a good laugh on all they have done in their lives. I have found myself looking at the heavens and reminding the two to behave themselves and enjoy being everyone's guardian angels. I hope in time the family will find peace in your memories of Kurt just as we have done with our memories of my brother. God bless you all and most of all God bless Kurt. Sincerely, Mari (Seman) Swaggerty

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
