When KRON4 spoke to Curtis three years in the past, he instructed us that reconnecting with neighbors following the pandemic was essential. In keeping with the GoFundMe, he began giving out free pancakes after his spouse “told him he was getting weird and needed to make some friends.”

“What started as a lighthearted way to make friends turned into a movement that earned him a new title of the ‘Pancake Guy,’ landed him on the Drew Barrymore Show, and a well-deserved feature in Upworthy’s recent book, Good People,” the fundraiser stated. He additionally did a cross nation tour, doing pop-ups to serve free pancakes.

Throughout a 2022 look on KRON4, Curtis left us with the recommendation to, “Be the chocolate chip pancake you want to see in the world.”

In keeping with the GoFundMe web page, his demise was sudden. Curtis leaves behind his spouse, their two daughters, and a child boy that is anticipated this summer season.
