My heart goes out to Curtis Fort's family and friends. Through my many years in the army, I can truly say that Curtis will be one of the few people that made an everlasting impression on me. He was kind, had a wonderful attitude, and put a smile on the face of everyone in that room.

SPC Fort was such an inspiration. He was always smiling and encouraged his fellow Soldiers. His positivity was contagious and he just always made you feel happy. He will be missed greatly and I’m so thankful to have gotten to know him and serve with him. Rest In Peace, you are home with the Lord smiling down on us all now.
