This is Trina McCurdy, Granddaughter of Russell McCurdy.  I am writing all of you on my grandfather's address book to let you know that Grandpa has passed away this morning (06/17/05).  I am so sorry to have to let you all know this way.
Please send further email to me at trinarm@sbcglobal.net
All who email me, I will keep you updated on any viewing or funeral arrangements.
I want to thank all of you for your interest in my grandpa.  It was people like you who helped him keep going, knowing he had a message to give and knowing people wanted to hear it.  He was a special man, wonderful father and grandfather, and now he is with grandma Pearl.
