Mr Curtis was an amazing person to know. He loved sending santa letters to kiddos, my daughter loved receiving them..I worked with Curtis at SWB and just found out of his passing..RIP Mr Curtis..prayers for his family ♡
My dad was at Brookdale Chenal Heights before we had to move him in December 2019. He passed away last June. Curtis was such a good friend to him and to my husband and I while Dad was at Brookdale. He watched out for Dad and would let us know how his day had gone. He would sit and eat with Dad and visit with him. He was a wonderful encourager and prayer warrior for our family. I know he is celebrating with Jesus in Heaven. He will be missed here. We will be forever grateful for having known Curtis. Janet Osborne
