My name is Bob Higgins. I lived & worked with Kurt from 1980-1984 at Premworks, Rainbow, & Foodworks. We continued our friendship after I left Chicago & moved back to Kansas City. We both started buying books about the same time in the 80's. I always looked forward to seeing Kurt at programs & shared ideas about the book business as well as our love for Maharaji. Kurt had a simplicity that was very endearing to me. For you oldtimers he was very much like Gilberto who worked at the Rainbow warehouse in Chicago. Kurt will be dearly missed by me.
