Curtis Devin, cherished father and devoted husband, gracefully entered the embrace of his heavenly father after a brief illness on January 16, 2024, surrounded by his beloved children.

He was born on April 30, 1939, in Martinsville, VA to Virginia Hairston and Veary Carter and leaves beautiful memories of laughter, love and fun.  His smile and bright spirit remained even in the darkest of times.  He leaves behind to cherish his memory, his beloved wife of 43 years Anne Devin, sons, Fleet Craddock, Ronald Devin and Daren Devin of Norfolk, VA, daughters Antoinette Boyd and Tanya Joyner of Norfolk, and Tasha Devin of Dallas, TX, sisters, Ronnie Kay McBane and Lucy Hairston of Martinsville, VA, brother Kenneth Devin of Martinsville, VA, and a host of grandchildren and great-grandchildren along with loving relatives and friends.

Curtis is predeceased by his parents, sisters, Donie Wheatly, Ernestine Hairston, Pattie Hairston and sons Curtis C. Devin Jr and Eric Devin Sr.

Curtis affectionately known as "Bunky" to his Martinsville family, graduated from Martinville high school in 1958 and served in the US Navy shortly after.  He worked in the trucking industry for over 35 years under the nickname "Duck" and loved to travel. He belongs to Mount Gilead Baptist church where he sung in the men's choir and drove the church van.  A staple in his community he was known for helping people move, cutting grass and picking up their junk.   Curtis loved to play golf, bowl on his AMF Little Creek league, go fishing with his friends and he was a diehard Washington Redskins fan.  He had such a love for his friends especially his best friends Don Bowie and Joe Burgess.
