When I come to the end of the road.And the sun has set for me.I want no rites in a gloom-filled room.Why cry for a soul set free? Miss me a little--,but not too long And not with your head bowed low. Remember the love that we once shared,Miss me-- but let me go. For this is a journey that we all must take And each must go alone. It's all a part of the Master's plan, A step on the road to home.When you are lonely and sick of heart Go to friends we knowAnd bury your sorrows in doing good deeds.Miss Me-- But Let me Go!
My friend , I only wish I knew how to miss you,and let you go. It get hard sometimes we are all so young.

If I had not seen it I wouldn't believe it~ If i had not known you~ that would have been my loss.Because I Love you and miss I count my blessings to have known you.YOUR PASSING WAS UNTIMELY.
THE ABILITY TO LAUGH WITH YOU IS NO MORE. ALL OUR DAYS ARE LIMITED.ONE THING I'M CONVINCED OF IS THAT OUR GOD MAKES NO MISTAKES. SO WHEN THE WIND BLOWS MY WAY, I'LL KNOW THAT'S YOUR SPIRIT IN THE COOL OF THE DAY.
CURTIS IT IS UNBELIEVABLE AND STILL YET HARD TO ACCEPT. THE WILL OF GOD SHALL BE CARRIED OUT,AND HIS JUDGEMENT I RESPECT.

Praise God, Marian I just want to encourage you that, although the road is bumpy right now. I know there are many sleepless nights.One thing I know for sure is that God 's going continue to be your everyday substance.He is your every breath. I know it's not in your own strength that you are able to attempt to live a normal life. God is doing it for you even now. He is your help and your strength.He is your joy in the midst of your sorrow.He is your morning in your darkest hour. You will make it child of God. This was not designed to destroy you.Yes,this life is uncertain. You are going to be able to help someone with The Loss of their child. God is preparing you for kingdom work. I Love and Miss Curt !!!!!!
To be honest I'm a more faithful christian through his accident. Curtis Homegoing has gave me a reason not to look back, I got to move forward concerning the things of God. Be Blessed and you know you will be seeing me and or my kids soon. Just Call if you need anything. We Love You and God got you. Blessings to you.

It' been over two months,and we don't have you. We can still hear you saying What dey do! What are you doing man? Resting, or still holding the bench down, walking the dogs or just playing around. What ever you are doing it's lonely without you. So in your absence Curt still do what you do. Football season is coming you know what that means it will be a empty chair in front of the screen. We miss you BOYYYYYYY.

"Suddenly"
You was with us one night,and gone before they break of day,Suddenly your life was snatched away.You lived ,loved,and laughed and Suddenly that was gone away.You had a smile like no other, we all laughed at you clown,and Suddenly no more Curt around.Riding,Walking the streets of Lincoln Estates,and suddenly there is a empty space, A void is left that only you could fill we miss you so much Curt,and that's on the real.You bid no one a last farewell, not even a goodbye. Suddenly you had slipped from time into eternity,and only God knows why?
Much Loved,Sadly Missed,but never forgotten. We Love You Curt !!!

WHEN THINGS HAPPEN THAT WE DON'T UNDERSTAND, WE TAKE COMFORT IN KNOWING IT WAS ALL IN GOD'S PLAN. WHEN HURT COMES TO ROB AND BLIND US AND IT FEELS SO UNJUST, WE REALIZE THAT GOD ALLOWED IT SO HIS JUDGEMENT WE'LL TRUST.WHEN WE GET THOSE PHONE CALLS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT, IT SICKENS YOUR SOUL,BUT IN CHRIST IT'S ALRIGHT. IT'S ALL READY ALRIGHT.IN THIS LIFE WE REALIZE WE MUST TAKE IT SECOND BY SECOND BECAUSE YOU DON'T KNOW WHEN THE SON OF MAN IS COMING BACK AGAIN.OUR HEARTS ARE IN DEEP, DEEP, SORROW THAT CURTIS HAS GONE ON TO A WAY THAT WE WILL ALL MEET.IT SEEMS SO UNREAL. REALITY IS THAT GOD MAKE NO MISTAKES. EVEN IF WE NEVER UNDERSTAND IT WE SAY THANK YOU.WE WLL NEVER FORGET YOUR PLAYFULNESS AND YOUR SMILE.WE LOVE YOU,BUT GOD LOVE YOU BEST AND UNTIL THAT GREAT DAY WE MISS YOU BRO!

Marian:
IN TIMES LIKE THESE..
The right words are hard to come by but the Lord sees what's in the heart and hears the prayers too deep for words. Praying that God peace love and comfort will be with you and your family always.
Marian,
When we fold our hands to pray God open His hand to help. When we speak from our hearts God listen with all His heart, when we place our faith in Him, God fill us with the power of his love..
Time teaches us that when each season comes to an end it only changes the color of the world around us it doesn't change the beauty that lives on in our imagination nor does the
passing of Curtis Jr. from your lives nor change the love you had for him it only finds a new way to live on.
Curtis Jr. passing is only closing a chapter in your lives it's not closing the entire book of your loving meomories.
