I was shocked and saddened to find out that yet another one of my beloved classmates had lost their life. I have memories of Kurt all the way back to elementary and junior high and all of them involve laughter. He was all boy and full of life and my condolences go to his family. Just know that he will be missed and remembered fondly by many.

I met Kurt @ Nathan Hale and through the reunions. He was a big help to help keep every one connected. He will always be fondly remembered! Donna Beadles

I didn't grow up with Kurt and only knew him from 6th hour Varsity @ Hale. In high school he was loved life, was always full of energy and joking around. I have good memories of those times and it's sad to hear of Kurt's passing. My condolences to his sons and brother.

My fondest memories of Kurt were from Fulton Elemetary. We sat next to each other in art and had so much fun! I remember when he pounded the clay so hard that a small pencil lead left by someone else, went up in his hand and he had to go to the doctor to get it removed. He was such a special guy. He always had a smile!

I grew up in Briarwood with Kurt and even though he was a year older and probably wouldn't ever have remembered me, I still cherish fond memories of that era. Football games, meeting at the A frame,and the swimming pool in the summer were "the places to be". He was always there. My prayers are with his family---God bless his soul.

I am so sorry to hear about Kurt's passing. Kurt and I went to school together @ Skelly & Hale. He was always laughing and kidding around and was liked by all. The thing I will miss is his contagious smile....
