He was a member of Coats Baptist Church for over 30 years. Mr. Currin was an avid hunter, fisherman, and lover of the outdoor. If you couldn’t reach him on one of his two cells phones, more than likely he was on a boat or in a tree stand. Mr. Currin loved his dogs, Mattie, Gracie, and Baby. He was a car and truck enthusiast.

He was a loving husband, father, grandfather, brother and uncle and will be deeply missed.
