Condolence: Dear family: We are so sorry to hear of your loss. You will miss him greatly as you go through the next few weeks and months, but you have each other. I think Curtis is the last of my dad’s cousins, at least on that side of the family. I’m sorry that we couldn’t make it, but we are thinking of you.

Dear Family; We are sad to hear of your loss, our thoughts and prayers are with you all during this time. Great Uncle Curtis always reminded the most of my Grandpa Roy and it always felt like I still had a piece of him whenever I saw Curtis. Your lucky you have such a big loving family, these are the times we need family the most. Love Tim, Donna and the children.
