Today is Sunday March 12, 2017. I just picked up the CD Mr Curly signed and gave me on June 30, 2016. I am playing it, I love WALKING DOWN THE OLD HOME ROAD. So I googled to see what he might be up to these days. I am saddened to read of his passing. I appreciate his autograph from the day we got to take him and the family fishing. Troy and Mrs Putman, I am very sorry to hear you no longer have Curly and his love and humor with you.

I'm sorry for your great lost. I never knew Curley, but I have been to Putman Mtn. My name is Larry Roland Putman. I was raised in Mobile, Alabama in a Orphanage. I was born in New Market in 1948. I was just wondering if we were any kin. 228-369-6446 I live in grand Bay, Alabama

I was proud to call Curly a friend and honored to have written many songs with him. He was just the nicest guy and i enjoyed hundreds of lunches with him. The food was good but the laughter at our table was the highlight. I could go on and on about "Curls" but I'll just say he deserved every acalade he got and more. A country music legend. I loved the guy. My heart goes out to Bernice and Troy.

My prayers are with you and your family.

Please accept my sincere condolences for your loss. May the God of all comfort be near you during this sad occasion. He said he is near to all those that call on him in truth. (Psalms145:18,19). Please call on him for comfort and strength.

I am so sorry for the loss of Curly. He will be missed, and the memory of him puts a smile on my face as I think of all the kind things he did. So sorry for your pain Bernice, Troy, Beth, Ian, Ryan & Gina.
Love you all,
Karen
