To Torrie's family, I would like to express my deepest condolences. She and Curtis were an absolute blessing to Francisco and me over the years since we met them in 2001 in Roswell, GA. I will always be inspired by their approach to life... Hard work, education, perseverance, using each experience as a means to an end. We often spoke to our son Lucas about their kindness to us and the paths their lives had taken. I think they might have been part of his inspiration to join the US military in 2012. He knew that was the launching point for their careers. I texted Torrie in early July In hopes of touching base & received a response with the sad news of her passing. I hope she was surrounded by loved ones in her final days. We will always remember her (and Curtis) fondly.

The entire staff at Intero Real Estate, formerly Better Homes and Gardens, is deeply saddened by the loss of the beautiful Torrie. She embodied intelligence, beauty and grace. Torrie and her beloved husband Curtis were part of our office family and were cherished by all of us. They are now together and may their memories be a blessing!
Sadly, the news of Torrie's passing didn't reach us until the day of the memorial service. Without doubt, several of us would have been there to show our deep respect for her.

My sympathy to the family. Torrie was quite a unique and fun lady. We always loved to have her stop by our real estate office where Curtis worked. Now she and Curtis are back together.
My thoughts and prayers,
