88mph Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 This is sad news. RIP Curt. My tentative 'connection' to Curt is that I own a Star Wars cabinet that was once his. Quite a few years ago, Curt generously gave it to another forum member here, and I later took it on as a restoration project. (Curt's original thread link is below!) When I was picking up the machine, I was told 'hey, this was owned by the guy who designed the Atari Flashback 2!'. I have since restored Curt's cab with the original Atari hardware. Anyway, I just wanted to pay my respects to a generous and talented member of the community. You will be missed! 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love seeing history saved. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari-Jess Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Any update on this? Curt's website is important to me, and others, and I know we all just want to see it back online as soon as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+jgkspsx Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 In case you missed it, this fund for his daughter's education is still accepting donations, and it really ought to have gotten more: https://www.gofundme.com/f/24lkoij26o 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oky2000 Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Curt was such a passionate Atarian. I am rarely on forums and didn't know he had passed away. His energy in the community is going to be missed. R.I.P. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
