During his 35 years of employment at Frito Lay in Topeka Curtis formed special relationships with many of his co-workers, calling them his Frito Family. He always assigned nicknames to them, as they had one for him too….."Anderson" Cooper.

We, his family, learned over the past few weeks how special Curtis was to his work family. He was caring, patient, honest, helpful, understanding, dependable and had a dry, funny sense of humor. Many expressed their love for him.

He loved to garden, do yard work, cook, can vegetables and make jelly to give away. He crocheted beautiful Afghans, scarves, and potholders with precision stitches. He also enjoyed making beautiful stained-glass creations. Curtis was a talented artist and a gifted singer.
