I sincerely apologize for my delay in posting, but only heard this sad news today. Curtis was simply a kind, gentle and wonderful man --the kind this world doesn't have a great supply of much anymore. He was truly a pleasure to work with at ForMor over the years. My sincere condolences to his family.
I’m so sorry to hear of your loss. May God wrap his arms around all of you during this difficult time. Praying for all of you.
Pat and family, our prayers are with you today and going forward.
He was a super nice guy.

Dear Kelli and family,
I'm sorry to learn of your Father's death. My Dad just passed away February 2, and I share your grief.
I have happy memories of spending the night with you as a young girl; Rowdy was a baby! And great memories of our DBS days with your Mom as a Chapter mother.
Love,

The one thing that will stand out in my mind about Uncle Buddy is the love of his hair and his uncanny ability to tell a story. He could tell a story from start to finish and a smile would never leave his face. He was the type of man you loved being around with a gentle demeanor. He will be missed.
So sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
My thoughts and prayers are with the Edmondson family today and in the days to come. May God bring you the comfort that only He can.
Tonia, so sorry for the loss of your precious Dad. Praying God's peace and comfort for you and your family.
I’m so sorry for your families loss!! He was a great man. Your family will be in my prayers.
Ms Pat ,Rowdy & Family,
All my Prayers & condolences go out to you.
Curtis was one of the finest people I have ever known. May GOD Bless & Keep HIM.

Dear Edmondson family,
Please accept mys condolence and deep regrets for your loss for I lost my entire family to our enemy death and I would like to share where I found hope and comfort. I found this in what I read in Jehovah Gods word the Bible at John5:28,29 for there we're told we'll see our love ones again in the resurrection when Jesus brings them back here on earth and at Isaiah25:8 we're told that this enemy death will be swallowed up forever. These scriptures along with others help me cope with my loss and get through each day because now I know I'll see my love ones again and so can you. I wanted to share this with you now when comfort and hope is needed hoping that this will help you also in some way for this is my purpose in sharing this with you at this time and please know that I do share your grief and hope you'll feel free to let me know if this helped. I hope to hear from you. Sincerely, GM
He was a fine man, always so pleasant to be around. My thoughts and prayers are with y’all at this time. . God. Bless
I love dad and miss u so much already
Pat and family,
I am sorry for your loss! My thoughts and prayers are with you all during this time!!!
