I will always remember Curtis Mason as such a fine man in the Woodcrest Merhodist Church family where I grew up. I remember him as a hard worker, a consistent volunteer, and a man who always shared kind words with a smile. My sincere prayers are with his lovely kind wife Sue, his children Lynn & Cindy and Denise & Clayton, the grandchildren, and all of his family, He will be fondly remembered forever by myself and so many others in this Lumberton community where he resided for so many years. There is no doubt that Mr. Mason now rests in "Beaulah Land" with many from his family and his Woodcrest Methodist Church. Laurie Abercrombie Thomas

Great Memories and Friendship we had together at Mobil Oil are not forgotten, enduring in the ones left behind, speed on Marine, secure a place for we that follow. Curtis was always kind and a gentleman, even when Sue bagged a bigger Buck Deer than he, that crooked smile would show on his face, then he replied, "next time".T.C. (Hoot) Gibson

Such a sweet,sweet man. I remember his soft voice and always a smile on his face... I also remember his climbing ability when a fight broke out during the Kountze game..back in the 70's...at the time I could hardly believe Mr. Mason running on the field and now I understand.......He was a US Marine and charged the enemy...I'm so very sorry for your loss. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers...
