Kurt grew up in Ritzville, Wash. where he made many lifelong friends. In 1978, he met and married his wife Kathleen and they moved to the western side of Wash. shortly thereafter. They had their first and only child, Maggie, in 1981 and settled in their forever home in Fairhaven. Kurt was employed by the WA State liquor board for 30 years and worked in several state-run liquor stores in Bellingham. He had a passion for Blues music, playing the harmonica at local Blues jams for many years and listening to live music whenever he got the chance. Kurt was an avid reader and fan of anything "Beat Generation", The Rolling Stones, war movies, and scuba diving. He spent time exploring coral reefs in his all-time favorite place, the island of Bonaire.

He was preceded in death by his father Virgil and his brother Klay McCrady.

Kurt is survived by his wife of 46 years Kathy, daughter Maggie, son-in-law Brady Hopkins, mother Joanne McCrady, brother Kole (Eva), sister Kiera (Ben) Buriak, several nieces, nephews, and other relatives, and his corgi Figaro.
