Curry was a hardworking family man & also loved having a good time. His favorite hobby was raising & hunting his walker foxhounds for pleasure & in field trial competitions. He enjoyed winning trophies & awards, but his true passion was hearing the hounds run. He enjoyed suppers at the camp or at home, sitting around the fire sharing hunting stories. Easter was his favorite holiday. His grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews, & child of his friends would wait anxiously for him on Easter morning so they could pock eggs with him. He was known to some kids as the "Egg Man." His big heart will be missed by everyone that knew him.
