I have known the Green family for over 40 years. They were the best neighbors anybody could want.
Curtis and I share a lot over the fence.
Our conversations were about many things including his love for his family, old cars and of course Mexican food.
He loved tamales.
When they moved a couple of months ago, my heart broke as they were one of my main reasons for never having a desire to move. He will be greatly missed. May he rest in peace.

I babysat the Green children 1970 to 1972, and have wonderful memories of fun plays with little Curtis at the time. My deepest sympathy to Jerri, kids and family.

I'm heartbroken. Since Kindergarten he was my friend. Kind, gentle and smiling. He was the only boy to ask me to dance...ever. It was at our Eighth Graduation Dance. He wore a grey suit if I'm not mistaken. I know I will always hold him near and dear. Curtis, you were special.

We remember the Green Family fondly from our days at Tolleson Baptist Church. Loved seeing PJ and Thelma swinging in their front yard swing, their love for their children and grands...sorry for the loss of Curtis..he reminded us much of his grandfather. Anthony and Sherry Thomas

The Saturday before he passed, we bumped into each other at my mom`s house. We hugged and last words we said to each other were I love you. Thank you God.
