Curtis retired after many years with US Gypsum out of East Chicago, Indiana. He enjoyed playing the ponies at Balmoral Park, watching Westerns and cheering on the Chicago Cubs and his Kentucky Wildcats. Curtis was part of a group that often met on many mornings at the Indiana Restaurant in East Chicago, Indiana. He loved traveling to Kentucky and hosting parties because being around people was always important to him.
