As a child when I attended Woodlawn Baptist Church, I had a huge crush on Curtis (who wouldn't he was very handsome). He was very sweet and always handled himself as a gentleman. I enjoyed the friendship that we had. I am very sorry for the family lost and will keep you in my prayers. The Gilmore family played a big part in my church family up bringing and Curtis will be missed.
Love to you all. Gloria

I have known Curtis for over 55 years and I only know good things about him. He walked with his head high and a smile on his face.Curtis will be missed.
