Kurt Alan Yamaura

Kurt entered eternal peace on April 16, 2015. His last moments were spent surrounded by family and close friends. Kurt was born August 7, 1966 in Spokane, Washington and was a lifelong Washington resident, moving to Bellevue and then to Richland. From age 15 to present, Kurt made a living conquering the automotive industry, from sales and service, spokes modeling, building race cars to Management, he excelled in all aspects of the auto world. Anyone lucky enough to have encountered Kurt knows his charisma was undeniable to all and he impacted more people than we will ever know. Kurt believed in quality over quantity in all aspects of life, he also believed in living each day to the fullest and always did on a regular basis. Kurt loved the sun, swimming, boating, tanning and he loved his music. Kurt regularly enjoyed cooking as a hobby, but more so feeding everyone. Kurt is survived by, Candice Yamaura (his wife of 18 years), his children; Cameron Yamaura, Georgena Rodriguez (son and daughter-in law), Kurt Yamaura II (son), Kayleigh Yamaura (daughter), his siblings; Michelle Crenshaw (sister), Pat and Kelly Yamaura (brother and sister-in-law), Tammy and Mike Brose (sister and brother-in law), his granddaughter Madison Yamaura, whom he adored, as well as several nieces, nephews, cousins, extended family, in-laws and close friends. With Kurt’s passing, we remind others to celebrate life with the love, passion, and energy as he did. Although we will miss him every day, especially his smile and irrefutable charm, he will remain forever in our hearts.
