Rest in peace, my friend. We truly had a wonderful time just enjoying life, from fishing and boating on Lake Lanier to just sitting around playing cards. Time goes by so fast but our memories linger on, thank God.

Oh my dear godbrother Curtis. When we were together on this photo; Feb. 17th of last year, It never crossed my mind that it would be the last time I would see you or chat with you. God bless you Curtis. I am profoundly sad and my heart is heavy. You were loved by myself and my family. Rest my Brother......Rest.
