There was no obituary, at his request in his will. He passed away in Randolph, VT  at Gifford Hospital on Sunday, March 3rd of natural causes / complications due to pneumonia. He was surrounded by his closest loved ones (son Taggart McCurdy and daughter Kitt McCurdy) and his partner of 22 years, Laurie Goldman. He passed peacefully and without pain and the family was able to say goodbye. His passing was exactly as his wishes described in his will, which is a blessing.
