Curtis was one of my most favorite boyfriends ... way back in the day of grade school. I remember how gentlemanly he was, mannered and kind. i'm thinking he continued to be that way his entire life. I'm sorry for your loss ... I know you'll feel it for a long time. and i know you'll feel his love for an even longer time. take care of yourselves. love, camille smith (cam smith)
Cheryl and family - Karen and I am so sorry for your loss. Curt was a great friend and a great person. As he and I grew up together from 7th grade thru college, with Mike Aberth, and Danny Falk, we all spent a lot of time together, shooting pool, building clubhouses, camping out, riding bicycles, go-carts, mini bikes and eventually hot rods. His yellow GTO was and still is a classic!! So so sorry, Ken Henderson
Dear Cheryl,
Roger and I won't be able to atend the visiting hours. We will be in Ohio. We send our love to you and all the kids and grand kids. I promise to grab a guitar and play a booming rendition of "House of the Rising Sun" in honor of Curt on Thursday. I also promise to hold his laughter and amazing sense of humor in my heart until we meet again. My prayers and deepest sympathies are with you all.
Dear Cheryl--I'm so sorry to read about this deep loss for you, your family and those of us who grew up laughing with Curtis. Our mothers (yours, Curtis' and mine) were all friends in our small community. I spent many a day at Curtis' and one of my favorite pictures of my mother that I have in my home was at his house. I know he fought his hardest. We will miss him! Please take care of yourself my dear. 47 years--what a triumph! My best, JoAnn Loulan
