Sad news

Agreed, on all parts.

 

I just can't believe this. My wife Laura just texted this information to me this afternoon. Ran with him on the track for many years. Both of his kids came to Childrens Ministry for years. Wow this is hard to accept. I will miss knowing that Yo will be at the track. He was always willing to help and always had a great smile no matter the circumstances. We all need to keep the family in our prayers. He was a great guy and friend.

I’m on or off, I’m a director and deal with Asian customers a lot so that’s suit and tie. Since I work crazy hours when I’m actually home it’s unshaven sitting in my undies on the deck working. I feel just as comfortable in a suit and tie as I do in shorts and a t shirt, minus the flip flops, I wish I could wear those to the office.

 

So have I.

 

Thay make piss-poor crash helmets though...

 

^^^That picture carries some Kesler spirit I think. I'm going to don my hat and run my saw tomorrow in a show of respect to a good man gone too soon.

 

That hat has character

 

I'm in Toccoa now at our other home and my brother Rick is driving up tomorrow. I don't have a cowboy hat but I guess that's okay. If anyone needs anything, let me know.

 

Make it stop raining.

 

RIP Met you once during our 250 races...

 

Thoughts and prayers for the family and all of you there saying goodbye last night and today. I hope your brotherhood around him brings love to the family and to each other. Celebrate the man and his life. Cheers.

 

I know the Yo! spirit will live on with some good folks volunteering to help racers in need at the races in the spirit of Kurt.
I have many years of racing parts, odds and ends to donate to the cause. If Stickboy or anyone else plans to fly the flag at the SE rounds let me know and I’ll get the stuff to the first round or ship.
Levers, steering damper, manuals, and other odds and ends. Boxes full. That’s what over 40yrs in racing collects. If you receive any of the more valuable stuff, I would appreciate a small donation to the Red Flag fund (if you can afford to do so).
Anyone interested? If I didn’t have work Fridays I’d be honored to help myself.
Let me know. FB works for me.

 

Last night was tough.

Gonna miss you my friend.

RIP Kurt, the world lost a good man, great husband/father. Ive never met anyone in my life with the heart that you had.

 

Where’s the country club?

 

Thank you Preacher Mark!
That was perfect.

 

It was a very well done service. Lots of people with a lot of good things to say about Kurt. Saw a lot of old friends that I haven’t seen in years. Just hate that it was under these circumstances. Still hate thinking about this but just hope Deidre and the kids can move forward. It was very easy to tell though that they have a very large support system in the wera community.

 

Wish I could have made the trip. Glad so many of you could be there to remember Kurt.

 

was good seeing everyone today for our last walk with Kurt.
