It is with great sadness we announce the passing of Curtis Lee Human, 54, on August 26, 2016, after a brief illness, in Edmonton, Alberta.
Curtis was born in Morden, Manitoba, April 15, 1962, to Gary and Evelyn Human. In 1967 they moved to Atikokan where Curtis completed school and enjoyed the Outers program (1978-79). In 1981 Curtis’ first child, was born. In February 1982, family in tow, Curtis moved west to work in the mines, his son being born in Fernie in 1985.
For the last few years, Curtis and Keri Jo lived in Drayton Valley, Alberta. Curtis had a love of animals and of the outdoors. He always had at least two pets, usually a few more, and when going to the animal shelter, the animals definitely knew it was their lucky day. Curtis loved being in the wilderness, whether hunting, snowmobiling or four-wheeling, he was always on the go. For the last few years, Curtis enjoyed one of his father’s favourite things, golfing. JAG is smiling now! If you needed a hand you could just give Curt a call and he would help you with anything. To Curtis, family was most important.
He leaves behind his loving wife Keri Jo, daughter Karen (Darin) Jensen, son Christopher, grandchildren, Mikayla, Nathan, Hailex and Ashlyn, mother Ev Human, sisters Brenda (Miles) Buckrell and Jodi (Byron), as well as many nieces and nephews, and other loving relatives.
Curtis was predeceased by his father, Gary Human, as well as a number of other loving relatives. At Curt’s request he has been cremated and there will be no service. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to The Heart and Stroke Foundation or to a charity of your choice.
