Lanny Curry

Lanny Curry passed away peacefully on Monday, January 6, 2014, at Hospice House after suffering a stroke on December 18, 2013. He was 77 years old.

Lanny was always a sports enthusiast, following the Anaheim Angels while living in southern California, and later an ardent fan of both the Gonzaga Bulldogs and the Seattle Seahawks after moving to north Idaho.

Lanny's love of music, particularly smooth jazz and contemporary christian was his refuge. He spent most of his working career in the auto industry, both in sales and as the finance manager for Lexus of Spokane.

Lanny was saved 2/19/80 and lived a Christian life. Volunteering at the United Gospel Mission, and later after retiring, continuing his faithful walk with the Lord, he did volunteer work at Real Life Ministries in Post Falls where he was a member. His favorite saying was "always do the right thing"... and he did.

Lanny leaves three adult surviving children: Cheryl Merritt of Mann, WV; Lanny Brent Curry of Orange, California; and Mark S. Curry of Salt Lake City, Utah; four grandchildren; and one living sister, Jennie Ashley of Point Pleasant, WV. Also, many loved ones from throughout his lifetime..

A celebration of Lanny's life will be held at Real Life Ministries in Post Falls on Friday, January 17, at 11 a.m. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Hospice House of North Idaho.
