Grandpa Curtis passed away the middle of November, and was buried on his 88th birthday at the Utah Veterans Memorial Park at Camp Williams with full military honors.
I am so proud to be part of the Curtis Clan.
In light of the Season, I want to tell a short story of Grandpa Curtis -
One holiday season, a nephew of Grandpa was not able to make it home to his family for Christmas because of a horrible snow storm. Being close by, Grandma and Grandpa Curtis had him over to their home to spend the holiday with them. He was treated just as one of the family and even had a gift from Santa under the tree on Christmas morning. It was a pair of nice binoculars. It was a pair of nice binoculars that was in the first place meant for Grandpa Curtis.
This is how all the Curtis’ are.
So, if you know any Curtis people from Salina, or see a Curtis Trucking big rig on the road, honk your horn, wave and thank them for being the kind of people that make this mean world a little nicer.
Oh, and did I mention how handsome Curtis boys are?
See for yourself below.
