CURTIS SIMS

Better known later in life as Captain Curtis Sims or CAPT, he was a very hard-working man who loved and supported his family.

Curtis loved to watch his movies, his sports teams and most of all HE LOVED THE LORD. He was an obedient servant of God and faithful member of THE WORD CHURCH in Cleveland, Ohio.

He loved to fly. In fact, he flew for major airlines for over 40 years and most recently retired from United Airlines, where he served for over 26 years as Captain.

Curtis loved his toys, as a child and as an adult. In fact, he loved almost anything with a motor or engine in it. He had the brain of a surgeon. His skill set on the computer and in the air (flying big jets) was impeccable.
