Trevor, Todd, Verna, Sherry and Shelley,
I just heard about Curtis passing, such sad news, my deepest condolences to you all. I have so many great memories from when I was a kid hanging out at your place from morning to night. Curtis was always welcoming, friendly, fun and sometimes crazy, which was great!! I always enjoyed it when he would take me for a drive in the big truck, especially when he would blast the air horn and talk on the CB radio. Later on, it was equally fun cruising with him down the garden road in the army truck and then hanging out at the camp. I also fondly remember sharing and comparing shift work stories with him, which I enjoyed, but sometimes drove Trevor nuts. Even though it has been a while since I have seen you all, please know you are in my thoughts, cherish the memories, Curtis was a great guy. Take care.
Sharon & Adrian Westlake
I’m so sorry to read of Curtis passing. Such I kind friendly and caring man. Takecare❤️
