I was fortunate to have known Kurt and the Knaus family since he was 6 or 7 years old, and have always known Kurt to be someone who was genuine, energetic and a true lover of life. Our thoughts and prayers are with his wife Trish, and the entire Knaus family. He will be deeply missed by everyone who knew him.
I for one will choose to remember the many laughs and good times spent in his company.
God Bless.
