Not sure what to say?

To my fellow Base in the choir: You will always be missed, but we are blessed to have another exceptional Angel watching over us! Thank you, my Christian Brother.

Dear Jo, so sorry to see this. What a great guy. You take care.

Curtis was a Fine Man. A Loving Husband, Father, and Step Dad
A Friend to many. He will be missed by All

Im so sorry to hear about
Curtis. He lived Big.
My heart hurts for your family.

A man of many virtues you will always live in our hearts. Prayers to your family

Curtis was so much fun on the golf course. Always a story or a joke. At our annual year end golf luncheons, it was hard to keep the number of trivia questions not to be linked to him in some way since he was such a character. He will certainly be missed since don’t think golf will be as much fun any more! Lots of stories connected with the following:
- Gold Vice ball
- Red tee box
- Birdie belly bump
- Talk or play golf?
- I’m a Marshall!
- The “Curtis Cup”

Jo I am so sorry for the loss of the love of your life. Curtis was such a wonderful man. My condolences to you and your family. May Curtis now rest in eternal peace in the arms of his Heavenly Father
