Curtis served in the United States Army for eleven years, serving in Korea, two tours in Japan during the occupation and one tour in Panama, as well as stationed throughout the United States. He met his wife, LaJane, at Bromide Baptist Church while he was home on military leave. They traveled to many states across the U.S. and married in 1955 and eventually moved to Texas to build their life. Curtis worked as a pipeliner in Pipeliner Local Union 798 across the United States for 50+ years.
