To a good man, husband and father. I’ve known Kurt for 15 plus years. He and I got along really good for just being 2 guys who were kinda forced together by the women we love. I am one of kurts brother in laws. His wife Tracy and my wife Kim are sisters. Kurt and Tracy have always had our backs. They let us stay with them when we moved home from Colorado no questions asked. Kurt came and rescued my bike when I couldn’t drive it. He would let us borrow his trailer to haul our 4 wheelers around. And There is much much more he has done for us in the past. Kurt and I do have a few things in common that helped our relationship , we both love our motorcycles , video games, and most of all hiking around the outdoors with our family and our dogs. To a good man thank you Kurt.
Rest in peace my friend.
Our sympathy and prayers
