It is with a heavy heart that I share the passing of Past District Governor John Kurfess, Perrysburg Rotary Club.
John most recently served District 6600 as the Membership Chair in the 2021-2022 Rotary year.
John was the epitome of an outstanding Rotarian. Service above self was truly evident in John's daily life. John was a charter member of the Perrysburg Rotary Club, Club President, District Governor in 1995-1996, District Membership Chair, and the biggest MESA supporter.
I had the opportunity to get to know John over the past year during my training as District Governor Elect. John was quick to say hello, he was always willing to help, he hated anything to do with technology, but he was willing to step up when needed. I will miss his guidance, his wit, and his leadership.
Funeral arrangements are pending. Those will be shared as they become available. Please keep the Kurfess' family in your thoughts and prayers.
