A large number of years ago we happened to be on a tour of Italy with Curt and Inez (?). Great guy. We then visited the UP during a fall and he was our tour guide of the area. He was more agile and I, even. We couldn't believe that he was as active as he was, driving us to and climbing upon the big slate pile. I thought his SUV was going to get stuck back in the woods but he forged on with no fear. He then took us to the shores of Lake Superior and told us the history of the area with respect to Henry Ford owning the forest. Claudia still talks about the Dingleberry Jam he introduced us to.

We lost contact over the years and I regret that. We had been keeping in touch with his daughter for a while. Curt was a hell of a guy.

He was still writing me Christmas cards up until a few years ago. Even though I only met him once when I was an adult, we instantly loved each other. He was my grandfather, Chewy's, cousin and best friend. -

Curt is a very distant cousin on my Curtis side, and when I started his genealogy, he was very kind and helpful. He even asked me to send some flowers to Florence which touched me deeply, so I did. I regret not having met him in person, but he was often in my thoughts. Thank you, Curt, for letting me in your family circle.

I would visit Curt on my annual visits from 'down under the bridge' to beautiful L'Anse, where my dad's ancestors came from Canada, and married into Curt's family. making us cousins. I so enjoyed his company; he always wanted to show me his collection of family albums, share stories of his beloved L'Anse and his family. I saw him this summer, and had hoped for another visit next year. Now I will have to wait to meet him someday in heaven. Condolences for his family and friends, the community has lost a great man.

Curt was my Mother's cousin and was close to my Grandfather Harry Culver..Curt and Harry were the two Nicest men I ever met , just outstanding men who set a good example of how we should life our lives.I know Curt lived a long life but I will miss him as though he died when he was 30. It's impossible to replace a man like Curt.I feel bad for all of you for your loss. Now, may Curt lie in peace. Bill Rosemurgy
