To my brother kirky, I'm so glad that we had the chance to have a long talk the night before you left town. we had a good long talk about everything that was going on in our life, sometimes god have curious way's of doing things and i would never haved guessed that would be our last talk. I can remeber the time that you had me driving on I94 at the age of 13, i had never been on the driver side of a car nor have a started up one, until that morning coming from Ypsilanti. you made me drive us home and you said "just don't pull out in front of a truck", then you told me where the gas and break was on the car and you went to sleep. When you wokeup we were coming down town battle creek and you started screaming pull over and i said not until i get to my dad where he can see you let me drive. I'll never forget the goodtimes we had. I will never forget the things you taught me in my life, good or bad, you will always be in my heart. RIP MY BELOVED BROTHER!!!
Your baby sis Deborah Nesbitt Hawkins.

Curtis? Naw...My mind and heart just can't accept this one. Not someone as FULL of Life as U..Can't Be! I often recall my meeting U and San for the first time. U guys had just got those hardly heard of yet Sting Ray Bikes with all the chrome and gears and U stunk around on Bowen Street with Curtis in a dang cape and told Us kids that u were from outer space and lived on planet pluto and ur names were Murgatryiod and Zepta! San did all the talking because U didn't communitcate with human so as U went EEk EEk ARK EEK she told us what U were saying. LOL Yall pulled that crap on Us for 2 days straight having Us scared to death until Big Fred got wind that yall was sneeking around that corner a put a stop to that crap real quick! Who would of guess that after our breif meeting with the aliens from Pluto that we all would shortly after become the best of friends for a life time..especially U and Matoka The Insperatable Clowns!! lol Curtis the memories I have of u are full of exciting times. We all have played, worked, shared, laughed, plotted, traveled, partied, cried, aruged, lived and even slept over nite togehter as friends. U are one for the Funniest people I know and U always got a way to make some money! lol Curtis, all i can say at this point is that U will be truely miss, but our love for u will forever be EVERLASTING LOVE! To the Family...Much Love..I know how Close Knit you all are and the UNCONDITIONAL LOVE you all have for one another and with that and your understanding of GODS WORD...there will be a Calmest after the strom has passed. I Love u all and GOD Bless each and everyone of U.
