Born on April 4, 1943, in Hutchison,
Kansas, Fred was the son of Elmer and
Fannie V. (Hale) Curless. On December 5, 2015, he married
Carolyn Sue
Murray-Trusty.
Fred was preceded in death by his
parents and a brother, Marvin Elmer Curless.
He is survived by his wife, Carolyn
Murray-Trusty; a daughter, Denise Wright
(Bobby) of Bentonville; two sons,
David Murray (Catheren) of Ramona,
California, and Darryl Murray
(Jennifer) of Cedar City, Utah; a sister, Patricia
"Patti" Manke
of Derby, Kansas; seven grandchildren, five great-grandchildren,
and numerous nieces and nephews.
With an entrepreneurial spirit, Fred
successfully ran a water softening service for
many years in California and later
established a construction business in
Arkansas. He and Carolyn were devoted
members of the Assembly of God faith,
finding solace and
joy in Gospel music, particularly the traditional hymns of the
church. They
cherished attending concerts of their favorite artists and groups,
often traveling for
the experience. Fred's hobbies included camping, boating,
and fishing.
In lieu of flowers, the family kindly
requests memorial donations in Fred's honor
to a cause close to his and Carolyn's
hearts: The Gospel Music Hymn Sing
Foundation, PO Box 1182, Morristown,
TN 37816, or through online contributions

Though He's gone, He is not forgotten.
Though absent, He remains in spirit.
Though once a worker, He now rests.
