Brandon Curtis 1992 ~ 2010 Our wonderful son, Brandon Curtis, 18, was "called on his mission" early when he died Wednesday, July 28, 2010 from injuries sustained in a rollover accident after football practice at Springville High. Born on April 28, 1992, to Jesse and Dianne (Schouten) Curtis, Brandon loved life and was loved by all who knew him. He was known for his smile and the twinkle in his eye. His smile defined him; it could light up a room. His sense of humor kept his family in stitches; he turned arguments into laughter consistently. He had an amazing, loving, helpful, personality, giving 100 percent in all he did. He was as perfect a son, brother, cousin and friend as could be asked for. He was his mom's help, support, and joy. He was the oldest of seven children and was the perfect big brother to all. Brandon was an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and fulfilled his priesthood responsibilities with dignity and honor. He went on several appointments with the missionaries and was so excited to serve a full-time mission. He was also an Eagle Scout having completed his project just days before his 18th birthday. Brandon excelled in athletics and was a member of the football, wrestling, and track teams at Springville High School. His coaches and teammates thought of him as a compassionate, natural leader; a hard worker and a very giving person, a person that they would like their sons to grow up and be like. A good friend, mentor, and 2nd Dad to Brandon, Matt Day, said, "Brandon took up a large piece of real estate in the heart of everyone he came in contact with and it's going to stay that way." Brandon is survived by his parents, and seven siblings; Shanae (16), Marshall (14), Heidi (11), Spencer (9), Adam (6), Kaitlyn (3) and DJ Collette (24). His grandparents, Ron and Doreene Schouten of St. George, and Rowley and Betty Curtis of Springville, and many aunts, uncles, and cousins who will miss him greatly. Funeral services will be held on Tuesday, August 3, 2010 at 11:00 a.m. at the Hobble Creek Stake Center at 495 S. Canyon Road, Springville, UT. A viewing will be held on Monday, August 2, 2010 from 6 to 8 p.m. at Wheeler Mortuary in Springville and prior to the services, 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. at the church. Following the services, burial will be in the Evergreen Cemetery.
