this life on September 5, 2008 at the age of 59 years 7 months and 11 days.
He passed away at the Collier Hospice Center in Wheatridge, CO. Seven days

Curtis, son of Marvin Arthur and Eula Jean Nevill Gaule, was the youngest of

youth was spent in Clearfield. He was active with the Methodist Church in his
youth. Curtis graduated from Clearfield Community School in 1967.
He was united in marriage on June 25, 1970 to Nancy Crandall in Bedford, Iowa.
At the heart of things Curtis was always a small town Iowa boy. He took those
values, his bride and in 1972 followed a friend to Broomfield, CO. They
were blessed with a son, Shane Curtis and daughter, Shilah Jean. Sixteen years
later they were divorced. He then married Sharon Lynn Brown and welcomed
Heather Michelle Brown as his stepdaughter. To this union was born a daughter,
Cassandra Earleen Brown and a son, Marvin Jonathan J. They were later

His employment took him all over the foothills extending from Castle Rock, CO
to Longmont, CO. In 2005 he retired in Dacono, CO from being a mechanic;
