I was shocked and saddened to learn about the sudden passing of Curt. I had known Curt since childhood; our fathers were longtime best friends. I still remember him accompanying our family to Orlando several years ago and how much fun we all had. I will miss him greatly. On behalf of the Lee family, I send the Raby family (particularly Johnny and Violet) our sincere and deepest condolences.
