“on behalf of Majority Leader Dole and myself, I would like to address the Senate on the death of Curtis Baldwin. I wish to take a moment to recognize a Senate staffer who made a meaningful contribution both to the Senate and his community. Curtis Baldwin unexpectedly passed away this week at the young age of 36. He was born in Richland, GA, and graduated from Clark College in Atlanta. For the past 7 years, Curtis was a Sergeant at Arms employee who was well known among his coworkers and the Senate staff as a goodhearted, dedicated, and loyal individual. Curtis will always be remembered as having a positive effect on people with his joyful disposition and contagious laugh. In addition, he was an active and faithful member of the Congress Heights Methodist Church in Washington, DC, where he was a youth minister, a member of the board of trustees, and an assistant treasurer. Curtis found deep fulfillment in being a member of both the T.J. Horne Ensemble and the church choir. He celebrated life each day by being close to the Lord and his family. Curtis will always be remembered in the hearts of those who knew him.”
