Dear Betty and Mike-
I was so very sorry to hear about Curt's passing. I have so many wonderful memories of all of you, but especially of Curt's infectious grin, his cheerful outgoing personality, and his great ability to tell the funniest stories. I loved coming over to your house for those Christmas parties- the food was fantastic, the hospitality unmatched, and the kindness of you all just enriched everyone's life who was fortunate enough to have known your family.
Curt was also a very loyal friend and coworker to Woody and his Dad, and I thank you for that.
I know these upcoming months will be difficult for you, but I am truly thankful that you have been blessed with lots of love for each other over the years, and that he had a life well lived and loved. I hope you can savor all the little things that made you smile with him and know that he waits for you in heaven to join him when you can all celebrate together again.
Sending love and prayers your way-
Sincerely,
Lotus MacDowell

To the entire family of Curtis. I am so sorry to hear about your loss. I remember working with Curtis at Ingersoll Rand and also helping him with survey work many years ago. Curtis was a great man and I’m sure he will be missed by many. I also remember getting a pony from Curt because he was afraid that his mom might get down while trying to feed it. Lots of laughs with Curt.
With Deepest Sympathy Danny Marshall
