Curtis Ray Baggett, lovingly known as husband, Daddy, Uncle & Papaw, was a one-of-a-kind man who lived life with a full heart and an unforgettable spirit. He was a devoted husband, a loving dad, and the kind of person who never met a stranger and always knew how to have a good time. Curtis loved people, music, partying, fishing, good food—especially BBQ—and spending time surrounded by the people he loved. He had a passion for surfing, shuffleboard, Harley-Davidson motorcycles, the Houston Texans, and all things shoes and fashion. He had his own style, his own way of doing things, and a personality that could light up any room. More than anything, Curtis loved living life, making memories, and bringing people together. His stories, laughter, music, and larger-than-life personality will be deeply missed by everyone who had the privilege of knowing and loving him.

He is survived by his wife, Sherry Baggett; daughters, Delainey Baggett and LaMarcus and Desirae and husband Thomas Hart; and grandchildren, Kailie Tate, Alexis Tate, Keira Tate, Skylar Perry, Bronson Perry, and Brandt Perry.

Preceded in death by parents, John Baggett and Bonnie Belsha Baggett; and brother, Kenneth Baggett.
