At the time of his death, he was the building superintendent for TTUHSC. Curtis never met a stranger and when he found the Amarillo Elks Lodge, he found many new friends. He served as an officer in many positions for the Elks and was currently in his one year term of Exalted Ruler. Curtis loved all kinds of music, he sang karaoke every chance he had. He DJ’ed many events at the Elks Lodge for friends usually just for a donation or nothing at all. Curtis loved traveling everywhere on his motorcycle and in the motorhome with Anne, Yogi, Harley and Artie. He was loved by many but the love he gave in return was insurmountable.
