Curtis was born in Birmingham, Alabama on September 10, 1968, and graduated from Pelham High School. On June 1, 1991, Curtis married the love of his life, Kelli Waters.
Curtis loved life. Although he suffered from physical pain through the years, he always had a smile on his face and a positive attitude. He loved his work at EZ Scaffold, Inc., his coworkers, and his clients, who became some of his closest friends. Curtis found great joy in “closing a deal.” He was a big Alabama fan and loved watching football, basketball, and baseball. He was also a big fan of racing. Above all, Curtis loved his family. He was selfless, kind, generous, and was always willing to help someone in need. He turned strangers into friends and friends into family.
His legacy will be one of hard work, perseverance, selflessness and kindness; but most of all love. He will be greatly missed by many.
