“Curtis was one of the first of my Mercyhurst family to see me without a wig. He needed some help with some of his players and waltzed right into my office. My wig was sitting on the desk and I didn’t have time to react. He never batted an eye. He treated me like I was Erica. A few weeks later he did ask what happened to my hair. He shared with me he had lost his too for a while. I had no clue what he was battling and he didn’t hesitate to treat me with kindness. He was a stand-up guy and I know the Mercyhurst family will not be the same without him. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family.”
