FROM ST THOMAS LUTHERAN CHURCH ON FEB 15, 2016:
Curt and Joy Knudsen were beloved members of St. Thomas. I admired them so much. My son and Curt and Joy's grandson Willy went to school together and were friends in their younger years. I appreciate the memorial that you wrote.
Yes, Joy’s cremains are in the St. Thomas Columbarium, same niche as Curt’s. It is my understanding that Curt had kept Joy’s cremains as the columbarium was not added until 2009. Curt and Joy are together in heaven; and on earth, in a urn or box that their son Steve crafted.
Blessings,
