Curt was born on January 29th, 1962 in Elgin, IL and was a life-long resident of Crystal Lake, IL. Curt loved spending time with his family and friends, cooking the next best meal, visiting Jordan Lake, and watching sports, especially the Minnesota Vikings.  He couldn’t wait to watch them finally win the Super Bowl.  Curt was incredibly selfless, loyal, and could make anyone in the room laugh.  Our hearts are broken.
