Curt is survived by his wife Maria Shettlesworth, daughters Jennifer Burkhart and Jessica Shettlesworth, sons Jeremiah Shettlesworth, Joe Shettlesworth, Jedediah Shettlesworth, and Joaquin Shettlesworth, brothers Tim Shettlesworth, Jeff Shettlesworth, and Nate Shettlesworth, sisters Pauline Grubbs (Shettlesworth) and Deedra Bringman (Shettlesworth), ten grandchildren, one great grandchild, and many more family and friends. He was preceded in death by his mother Lois Hines-Vrismo (Fitzgerald), father Harold (Lee) Shettlesworth, sister Patti Cannoy, and brother Rod Shettlesworth.
Everyone who knew Curt knew his kind and forgiving heart. Family meant everything to Curt, and there was nothing he enjoyed more than spending time with his large family, with the exception of maybe poker. Curt had an unwavering commitment to his family and loved the Shettlesworth family reunions where he was able to connect with many siblings, children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and cousins from his large and spread out family. He will be missed by many.
