I had the pleasure of meeting Curtis 3 years ago at a Reed reunion. He had so many stories to tell and I could of listened to him all day long. He was a fine man and will be missed and a part of my heritage left with him today but am thankful for the time I did get to spend I know his family will miss him but he left a great legacy behind. May God grant you the peace to face the days ahead.
