Curt and I worked closely together at General Motors from 2014-2016 as design engineers on a new SUV. He quickly showed was a technical powerhouse with his nose to the grindstone, always. In my mind at least he and I formed a team where I could be his megaphone, clearing the way for his design progress, while he powered away at engineering solutions. He probably didn’t know how much I enjoyed that. He gave me great vacation advice and every once in a while, told an interesting story like getting a ticket for taking a shortcut in downtown Royal Oak that involved illegally walking along the railroad tracks with his friends from Chrysler (and as you can imagine was told to me with sarcasm about the terrible crime he had committed).
I miss Curt a lot and wish that we could still be friends.
