My Cousin Curtis will truly be missed. We will miss his laughter, his smile, and his
willingness to help anybody. He was an example for all of us to follow. Our Family Reunions will never be the same without Cousin Curtis!
Family, I hope you find comfort in knowing that Curtis is now peacefully at rest with God.
Love you forever,

I will always remember the good times that we all shared when we took that crazy trip to Chicago. I will always remember the fun times on the holidays watching/shooting fireworks. I can't ever remember time that you weren't making a joke, telling a story or making everyone laugh. You fought a good fight and now you have earned your rest.

No farewell words were spoken, No time to say goodbye. You were gone before we knew it, and only God knows why. Our hearts still ache in sadness and secret tears still flow, What it meant to loose you, No one will ever know.....your loving sister Belinda
