Due to COVID-19 and the recommendations from the CDC, we are trying to keep all gatherings smaller than 50 people. Because of the unique circumstances,
the funeral is by invitation only to follow these guidelines. We understand and know that he was a beloved member of the community and many would like
to pay their respects to Curtis, but we ask that you be health-conscious in this current situation. We respectfully ask if you have any symptoms (fever, coughing, or sore throat),
to refrain from attending the viewing.
A viewing will be at Riverwood Family Funeral Service 5-8 pm Tuesday, March 17th.
We thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
