Mrs. Curtis was the best friend my mother ever had. She made her laugh and smile till my mother's last day. She was truly a warm and caring person and always expressed warmth and laughter to me. I feel like a part of my mother has passed too, and I am very blessed to have had the opportunity to know her. My deepest sympathy to you all and you'll be in our prayers.



Love,



Connie, John and Hannah Broomhall
