Anyone who knows Curtis Steinle knows the kind of person he is. He has a highly competitive spirit and he is the one who consistently shows up—no matter what.
Need help moving? He’s there.
Something breaks? He’ll fix it.
Having a bad day? He’ll make you laugh.
Need a joke ? He’s got one !
Need an amazing grill master ? He’s grabbing the tongs before anyone can even say “I’ll do it” !!
Curtis gives endlessly without ever expecting anything in return. His family is his biggest accomplishment and he consistently moves mountains to make sure that they are all provided for. His kindness is quiet,but powerful, and it has touched so so many lives over the years. You most likely can name a time yourself where Curtis Steinle was there…. No questions asked.
Well now it’s our turn to give back to Curtis and Kim as they take on the biggest battle that they and their children and spouses have ever faced together.
Regretfully , with the Steinle families permission and request for full disclosure, we let you know that Curtis has just been diagnosed with stage 4 Metastatic pancreatic cancer. It has spread to his liver (confirmed with biopsy on 11/14/25) and there are small lesions on his lungs as well that are too small to biopsy at this point.
This upcoming week Curtis will have a Mediport placed for chemotherapy. As soon as the final biopsy results come back in a few days they will know the actual type of cancer they are dealing with. With that the doctors will know which chemotherapy drug to use to begin attacking this cancer with. His doctor wants to initiate chemotherapy beginning immediately.
We do not know what things look like beyond this.
Here’s where YOU come in.
Curtis and Kim will be facing mounting expenses as they navigate treatments and countless medical appointments plus all of the missed time off from work for both of them.
Your donations will go directly toward:
* Medical treatments and medications.
* Lost wages from missed work for both Curtis & Kim.
* Travel expenses to and from Methodist Richardson (fuel, tolls, and parking where he is currently admitted )
* Other costs that come with fighting a serious illness.
* Monthly housing expenses to include mortgage, utilities, car payments and food.
We humbly ask for your support, your prayers and for your donations to help Curtis and Kim navigate the long, hard road ahead. Any donation is greatly appreciated. Please consider sharing this page with your friends, family, and neighbors. Your kindness, prayers, and support mean the world to the entire Steinle / Luker / Efimoff & Rowe family.
