Saying Goodbye to Our Friend David Kurtz

Monday Evening, April 3

We were in Maine during the New Year when we learned that a brain mass had recently been discovered, then a few days later another mass was found in David’s lower right lung. (David’s sister Mary Jane and her husband Dennis are part of our church family in Lewiston, Maine.)

The information did not look good and the next few months were filled with disappointing news.

December 28, 1949 – March 31, 2017

Photo from his obituary. We usually saw him at local truck shows, but I could not find a picture of him.

I did find this one – from Macungie Antique Truck Show – but he has his back to the camera. He is the one in the grey striped shirt.

His beautiful, orange GMC was easy to spot at truck shows.

We were not surprised to see it on Monday night in the Petra Church parking lot where the viewing/visitation was held.

We will miss seeing him at truck shows, but I have a feeling this is not the last time we will see his orange GMC.

Our loss is Heaven’s gain.
