On December 6, 1961, Curtis A. Lyons was born in
Lakeland, Florida to the late Elder Lott Curtis Lyons and
Hazel Lyons.
He got his early education in Polk County Schools. In
1976, his family moved to Bushnell, Florida, where he
continued early education at South Sumter High School
and graduated from South Sumter High School on May
1980.
Later in life, he married Katrina Evett Johnson on July 10,
1993. Curtis Lyons became active at the House of Prayer,
Wildwood, Florida, and began to play the organ/piano
there. Music was his passion, and he wanted to be the
best at it. He would drill his sons, and they later became
musicians. As his health started to fail, his youngest son,
Tyre, took the reins and began to play for the church. The
oldest son, Curtis Jr., ventured out and plays percussion
all over the world.
He is preceded in death by our baby girl,
Fatima Lynette Lyons.
He leaves to mourn, his wife of 31 years, Katrina E. Lyons;
