The night before




Curt, prepping for the surgery on Tuesday. The "Certs" (not really Certs) on his forehead will help guide the surgeon to the exact placement of the tumor with millimeter precision using the MRI during surgery.

  4. My Gosh! You look GREAT! Even with the "certs" you look as healthy and handsome as ever! Can't believe you are going through this because the news of all that is going on is overwhelming. I am sooo sorry Curt! Patti...my heart is with you! With my husband's struggles with health I have an idea of the weight on you. I also know you are a strong woman with great faith in our Lord! Rest in Him...at times like this it is much easier said than done but trust. Let go and lean on Him with complete trust...He knows all you both are going through.
    With much love,
    Lee and Renee

  11. Praying for a totally successful surgery and recovery, and thanking God for anesthesia! You look wonderful, optimistic and courageous--which surprises no one who knows you. Blessings on you today, and comfort for dear Patti and the kids who are probably barely breathing.
    We love you all.

    We Love you guys sooo much!
    It doesn't seem right seeing u in that hospital bed. Usually you're the one visiting and praying. But the certs look is really fresh & minty on you.

  19. Curt & Patti, praying for you today! Ask the doctor if he can improve your golf game while he's in there! :) You look great with all the Certs on your head. Don't you think they should use LifeSavers instead? Okay, I'll quit. We will all be covering you in prayer today during your surgery. Praying for God's blessing and peace on all of you, for absolute steady hands and focus for the doctors, complete wholeness in recovery, and that the tumor is benign. We love you very much!

    Love,
    Lisa & JB
