It's with a great sadness I have to report I was told Curt Gran died as a result of a collision with a truck/trailer while doing the MN1K.

I don't have all the details and at this point that's pretty useless anyway. Please keep Cindy in your prayers at this tough time.

Copied from facebook -

The service will be held Saturday, June 30 at St. Paul's Lutheran Church in LaCrosse at 11 AM. The address is 420 West Avenue South. This will be followed by a light lunch at the LaCrosse Center. Address is 300 Harborview Plaza in LaCrosse. I will pass along more details as I know them. Cindy may post something also.

Chris, is the family ok with this information getting spread to the motorcycle forums where many of his friends are, or will this be family only?

Chris Gran
Charlie, the information I posted is for friends as well as family. There are other events we are not making public since they are family only. Also, keep in mind that the church normally seats 300 people although extra folding chairs can...

I am sorry to have to post something like this on email, as it so impersonal, but with so many people to contact, this seemed like a good way to get word out quickest. As most of you have probably read, Curt was tragically killed last Saturday, June 16th, while riding his motorcycle near Minot, ND. This is truly the darkest time in my life, but I find myself surrounded by so many good people, many of which are ones thankfully Curt brought into my life. My family and friends, your kind words, love and support you give me are helping me get through this one minute and a time. Curt was my “Hunnee,” my love, my shelter in the storms…my soul mate. He was loved by many, and I know will continue to be while he is in God’s loving care.

Come honor his life with us, as there is so much about him to cherish.
A Memorial Service will be held at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church at 420 West Ave South in La Crosse at 11:00 am on Saturday June 30th. A light lunch will follow. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Curt’s honor to St. Paul’s Lutheran Church or the charity of the donor’s choice. If you would like, you can share a special photograph (4x6 or smaller) to place in a collective photo album(s) we will have at the luncheon. You can also write something about the photo next to it if you'd like. There are so many wonderful photos that have been shared online, but this will give his family a tangible option for those who don't or can't access technology.

God Bless,
Cindy

Godspeed Curt. You won't be forgotten.
