Undated photo of Curt Noah and a young relative

Curt was born in East Saint Lewis, Illinois, and began coming to Vashon in the summer of 1976. He spent most of his summers here thereafter, eventually becoming a year-round resident. Curtiss divided his adult life living between Illinois and Vashon. While on Vashon he worked several years at the Golf & Country Club, and became the Golf Club Superintendent. In later years he started his own landscaping business. He was a resourceful, hard-working man who was quick to lend a hand to others.

Curtiss had a deep and abiding love for his family and always seemed to light-up in the presence of his siblings. It brings some measure of solace to his family knowing that he was in a beautiful, peaceful forest doing work he enjoyed when he died. In Illinois, he leaves behind his beloved mother, Sharon and his cherished siblings; Mark, Michael and Andrea.

On the island he leaves his dad Rex, stepmom Lin, sisters Cerise and Noor, brothers Jenner and Kael and his daughter, Jadzia. Curt had far too many friends to mention by name, but you know who you are. He leaves a huge hole in the hearts of his family and friends and we will love and miss him forever.

Notice of a memorial service will be announced soon.
