NORFOLK — James Curtiss, 65, of Norfolk, passed away May 7, 2023.

Born on Dec. 13, 1957, in Sharon, Jim was the son of the late James and Theresa Nielsen Curtiss. He graduated from Northwestern Regional #7 and began his career in construction, learning his trade from both his father and his late uncle, Francis Curtiss, who he fondly thought of as a second father.

In addition to being a talented woodworker, Jim also enjoyed logging on his property, gardening, and taking care of several dogs over the years. Throughout his life, he always did his best to help anyone in need.

He is survived by his two sisters, Catherine Dauphinais of Norfolk,  and Theresa Harrington (David) of The Woodlands, Texas. He is also survived by six nieces and nephews, Brian, Meghan, Kathryn, Andrew, Parker, and Lauren and by three great nieces.

There will be a graveside service at St. Mary’s Cemetery on May 20, 2023 , at 11:00 a.m. Kenny Funeral Home is in charge of the arrangements.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made online to A Good Dog Rescue at www.agooddogrescue.org.
