Tip Curtis has passed
« on: July 01, 2020, 05:50:13 PM »
I saw over on the ALR site, where Tip Curtis has passed. :(

Tip built some nice muzzleloaders, and was a great fella to do business with, and will be missed by many!

Yes Ray, he was quite a guy.  I did meet him briefly a time or two back in Friendship, he put on a great display.  His passing puts a hole in the muzzleloading community.
