I would like to send my condolences to your family. May the words in Isaiah 41:10,13 give you hope and comfort.
You and your family are in our hearts, thoughts and prayers at this difficult time. Curt (aka Buck) was my big-brother-cousin who kept all the boys away from me until my junior year in high school. He had the hottest car and taught me the latest dances. My regret is not getting to share his wonderful family and his adulthood.
My heart and thoughts are with you in this sad time. Love to all.
With deepest sympathy to all of his Family from the Irene “McGraw” Family. Remembering a handsome cousin, who was a little older than us, but was definitely a “Legend in His Own Time!”
