Curtis Brown - An Inspriration
This holiday season, be sure to take stock of your many blessings. Like a roof over your head, a family to come home to, and food in your stomach. Also say a prayer for Curtis Brown, his grandmother, and daughter. You don't truly know a man until you walk in his shoes.

Who keeps cutting all these damn onions in here?
Amazing read.

Curtis played on my brothers little league team
In Gilmer, he played running back then and all they did was pitch it to him and watch him run. I watched him all of high school and during his Longhorn career. Im so happy for him and his family. This kid deserves everything good he is getting.
awesome story..
…Maybe burntorangehorn can see a story on why some people struggle getting into college.
Hook ’em Curtis!
Great story. Great kid.
If a man is alone in the woods and he speaks, if no one hears him,,is he still wrong?
Good god I hate worthless parents
But I’m infinitely thankful for those who step up and give themselves to filling that role for children like Curtis. Thanks for posting.
