“Dearest Leymmeister Family, I was very shocked and saddened to hear of Curt’s passing. I had known him from our elementary years at Forest Heights, junior high years at John Hanson and our high school years at OHHS. I would even see him from time to time at the chapel center on Bolling Air Force Base during mass. He was always so kind and willing to share a smile or a laugh with everyone. He will truly be missed…Please know that you will be in my thoughts and prayers during this time of deep sorrow.
