Curtis Family
I had the pleasure of working with George over 15 years at the hospital we had many fun times, and some not to pleasent times but through it all George was postive and always a good friend and supported what we tryed to accomplish.
I would like to know who is going to burn their barn down now trying to kill hornets with a weed burner. I wil always remember that day with a smile and remember that was George Curtis to a tee.
Love to all the family. Jim Hone
