Boulder Creek, California - Gary Peter Curto, 80, passed away peacefully on September 27, 2025, surrounded by his loving family.
Born on June 6, 1945, in San Jose, California, Gary grew up with a sharp mind, strong work ethic, and a spirit of curiosity that guided him throughout his life. After proudly serving in the U.S. Air Force, he established Curto's Auto Stereo in Campbell, California, where his intelligence, integrity, and dedication to his craft earned him the respect and friendship of many.
Gary shared 57 years of marriage with his beloved wife, Donna Curto. Together they raised four daughters, Heidi, Wendy, Amy, and Trudy, and welcomed their husbands, Joe, Steve, Gaston, and Alex, into the family. He was a devoted grandfather to Cameron, Charlotte, Sebastian, Cassian, and Lux, who lovingly called him BopBop.
Gary will be remembered as a devoted husband, father, and grandfather who valued family, hard work, and honesty. He was a strong and steady presence in the lives of his family and friends, and he will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
The family will hold a private memorial and interment in his honor.
