My Father-in-Law, Chuck Curtis, passed away on December 20, 2012.

Calling hours will be Thursday December 27th at the Murphy Funeral Home in Newark, NY. 2 to 4 PM and 6 to 8 PM

Funeral Service will be Friday December 28th at 1:30 PM at Webster Presbyterian Church.

My wife, Nancy is an amazing person and her father is a big reason why. He was a wonderful father, grandfather and friend to all of us. He taught us so much and we are thankful for him and to God for providing us with him. He taught me to sail and he helped me build our house, he taught me so much. He was the best Grandfather anyone could ever want for their children. He was at our home almost everyday as the kids were growing up. We never tired of his visits because he was special. He taught all of us what it means to be benevolent and he inspired us to try to be the same. Our lives will forever be better because of him. Chuck Curtis left this world better because of his charitable work. I hope I can live a life half as honorable as he did his. God rest his soul.

Thanks Dad. We love you.

Nancy's smile is constant, especially when sailing. We spent a week in the BVI's sailing with good friends. Best vacation we ever had. Go to www.kerryvaniseghem.com and see our photos.	We did a lot of sailing on the most beautiful lake in the world. Canandaigua Lake.	What a beautiful couple. Kerry Ed loves Liz. Liz loves Kerry Ed. Nancy and I love them both so very much!

Curtis had the opportunity to show his Grandma ELON University and his fraternity, SigEp.	Grandma is a baseball fanatic and Kerry Ed is her favorite player. She visited Furman University to watch him play baseball. He was awarded the team's Golden Glove.	Grandma also enjoyed her visit with Carson & Jaz. They had a lot of fun together.
