FLOYD C. CURTIS
EXETER – Floyd C. Curtis, 78, went to be with the Lord Tuesday, September 19, 2006, after a full life doing what he enjoyed. He was born in Exeter, October 24, 1927, the youngest of 16 children born to Albert and Hattie (Kelley) Curtis. He lived his life on the family dairy farm with his beloved wife of 49 years, Olivia (Giles) Curtis. He loved hunting, fishing and farming. He served in the U. S. Army during the Korean War; and also had worked at Eastland Woolen Mill in Corinna, and Bangor Shoe in Newport, in addition to running his dairy farm. Floyd will be remembered for his gentle spirit and the kindness that he showed everyone. He was a member of the Dexter Pentecostal Church and a former member of the Exeter Full Gospel Church, where he served as a deacon and elder for both churches.

He is survived by his wife; his son, Dale and wife Marilyn, all of Exeter; his daughter Patty and husband Mylon Staples of Penobscot; his son, Paul and wife Laurel of Mainland China; grandchildren, Tony and fiancée Ashley, Jenni and husband Travis Easler, Tiffany Farley, and Matt Farley. Floyd was also the proud great grandfather of Christian Easler, whom he so enjoyed. He was also awaiting the birth of his great grand-daughter, Emily. Floyd is also survived by a sister, Edith Bowen of Hartland; three special nephews, Randy, Ronnie and Nelson Curtis. Floyd was “Uncle Hunka” to his many nieces and nephews. He surely will be missed.
