To Our Loving Son & Brother 
It is with deepest sadness our loving son and brother, we write this letter to 
you today. The eldest of three children, you have been our rock, our 
strength, and a son we could always depend. A son and brother, truly 
loved. 
You have seen your nieces and nephews, brother and sister grow to the 
individuals they are today; always encouraging each of us through our 
good and bad times. For this we thank you. 
Although you will not be physically present on this earth to see our 
grandchildren develop, we will always tell them of their "UNCLE CURTIS", 
the "go getter", the one always moving to better himself and the lives of his 
family. 
Curtis, we never thought we would do such a letter so soon, we just knew in 
our hearts you would be leaving the hospital and headed towards a speedy 
recovery. 
Son, we ask God why? But the truth is; this is His will. We need not 
question because He will give us the answer each and every day. 
We will cherish the memories of the wonderful life God has given to you. 
It is not an easy task to say goodbye to a loving son and brother as you. 
Curtis, therefore we will only say, we'll see you in heaven. 
Why must 1 bear this pain? I cannot tell; I only know my Lord does all 
things well, and so / trust in God my all in all. For He will bring me 
through whate'er befall - (Smithj 
Your Loving Mother, Daddy, Sister and Brother
