In Loving Memory of Kurt Burgard – Gone Too Soon, Never Forgotten
With heavy hearts, we remember 28-year-old Kurt Burgard of Blissfield, Michigan, whose life was tragically cut short in a devastating multi-vehicle crash just east of Fayette in Fulton County, Ohio, on Wednesday morning. His sudden passing has brought sadness and heartbreak to those who knew and loved him.
According to the Ohio State Highway Patrol, the fatal collision happened shortly before 7 a.m. Kurt was traveling northbound on County Road 23 when his vehicle failed to stop at the stop sign at U.S. Route 20. His car was struck by an eastbound pickup truck, causing him to be ejected from the vehicle. His car was then pushed into the westbound lanes, where it was struck by a minivan. The pickup truck overturned in a nearby field.
Tragically, Kurt did not survive the collision. The 64-year-old pickup truck driver from Fayette sustained serious injuries and was transported to a hospital, while the 47-year-old minivan driver from Lyons suffered minor injuries. The crash remains under investigation.
At just 28 years old, Kurt had so much life ahead of him, with dreams to pursue, memories to create, and countless possibilities waiting for the future. His passing is a heartbreaking reminder of how precious and fragile life truly is.
May his family and friends find strength, comfort, and peace during this difficult time. May the memories they shared bring warmth to their hearts and remind them that his life mattered.
Rest peacefully, Kurt Burgard. Gone far too soon, but never forgotten. Your memory will forever remain in the hearts of those who loved you. 🕊️
