Curtis loved to golf, go fishing, finding treasures at flea markets, garage sales and auctions. He loved riding his motorcycle and sitting on his back deck with a beer listening to music.

I am so sorry for your loss. Hold each other close as you remember and mourn him.
So sorry to hear about Curtis passing. Prayers with you Angela and family. I worked with Curtis for a number of years at Angel One, the description of Curtis in the obituary is spot on of Curtis. He will be missed. I am not sure I will make it to the service, just know that you and the family are in my prayers.
He will be truly missed

Sending our deepest condolences and sincere prayers during this difficult time.
Prayers and sending our deepest condolences
Curtis and I were dispatchers together at Angel One, and he was always one of my favorite partners to work with. He was so kind, generous, and thoughtful. He never came to work without a new snack or treat to share. He would fix our computers, he would share movies, and share treasures that he would find at flea market or yard sale. If he knew we had a craft or hobby, he would look for great deals for us. He was always thinking about everyone else. My heart is sad, and my prayers go out to all of his family and friends, his loss is a great one, and he will definitely be missed.
