Kurt was born in Shakopee, MN to Roy and Marlys (Luebke) Teich and was the seventh of nine children.
He graduated from Chaska High School in 1974 and with honors from Concordia College (Moorhead) in 1978. Kurt pursued a major in business, and he loved music, so finding a job in Keyboard Sales at Schmitt Music was a perfect fit. Kurt was such a successful salesperson, and he earned many trips around the world. Kurt married Jill Engeswick in 1980 and they had three awesome daughters. He loved his daughters very much and was proud of the women they have become.
Kurt found happiness in playing and singing bluegrass music-guitar and banjo. He was a creative musician who not only performed in several bands, but also wrote songs. Kurt enjoyed his extended family and spending time on the water boating and fishing. He was committed to his faith and was an active member of Mt. Olivet UMC in Robbinsdale.
Eventually, Kurt divorced and began working as a Loan Specialist for Wells Fargo. He met Julie Welter and enjoyed their relationship and becoming part of her family. Kurt and Julie had many memorable times together over the years. He delighted in being a Grandpa. Kurt had a good sense of humor and positive outlook in spite of having to navigate many challenging life issues.
