To Lee and all of the Rowland family: My son Buz and I will always remember the wonderful time when our families met at Myrtle Beach State Park in the 50's, and what a warm, kind and thoughtful person Curtis always was. Our subsequent get-togethers and phone conversations over the decades were also a delight. My husband Herman always enjoyed Curtis' company as well. Having lost Herman a few years back, we feel the greatest sympathy with what you are going through now. Remember Jesus' words, "I will not leave you comfortless." Take loving comfort from your sweet memories of this wonderful man. We will hold him in our hearts as well. Blessings to all of you.
