He lived his life always on the go. “Gotta go, gotta keep on the move” Curtis would say. He loved fast cars, flying, motorcycles, and boats. He had a fun-filled life full of laughter and friends. He never knew a stranger anywhere he traveled. His love for knowing when and where you were going was his ultimate comfort.

He will forever be remembered for his love, smiles, phone calls, surprises, and willingness to help others with the biggest heart.
