Kurt S. Seglem, age 74 of Rehoboth Beach, DE, passed away on Thursday, April 28, 2022, surrounded by family, at his home. He was born on October 21, 1947, in Wilkinsburg, PA, oldest son of the late Clifford and Lenora Seglem. Kurt grew up in Wallingford, PA and attended Nether Providence High School. He earned a BA from Drexel University and started working at Westinghouse, later moving onto sales in the aerospace industry, where he spent much of his career. Later in life, Kurt’s entrepreneurial spirit led him to launch his own concierge business. This allowed him to interact with people, which was both a strength of his and a pleasure. Kurt met his wife Linda at a 4th of July gathering in Sea Isle City, NJ. They were married on October 18, 1974, and would spend many happy times at the shore, eventually settling in Rehoboth Beach, after residing in Washingtonville and Mountainville, NY. Kurt enjoyed travel throughout his career and for enjoyment with Linda and his family. They made multiple trips to see family in Norway, as well as hosting his Norwegian family in the states. Kurt loved fishing, bird watching, and boating. He enjoyed sharing these pastimes with family and friends throughout the years, during vacations at the couple’s beach house and Rehoboth Beach homes. Kurt was a loving and devoted husband, father, grandfather, brother, and friend. Loved by many, he will be genuinely missed by all who had the good fortune to know him. In addition to his parents, Kurt was preceded in death by his son, Brandon C. Seglem; and his brother, Mark A. Seglem. He will be dearly missed by his wife of 47 years, Linda (Lux) Seglem; his sons: Jeffrey Seglem (Rebecca) of Phoenixville, PA, Christopher Seglem (Selina) of Weatherford, TX, and Brian Seglem (Danielle) of Milton, DE; his brother, Lee Seglem (Joanne) of Princeton, NJ; his grandchildren; and many other beloved family and friends.
