Zachary "Curtis" Herrera

Zachary "Curtis" Herrera, 51 years of age, always put his wife and family first and had a dad's story or joke to tell that would bring a blush to your face every time.

When Curtis entered heaven on August 23rd at 3:27 P.M., he was reunited with his loving mother, Marilyn. He was a strong man with a big heart, who never met a stranger.

Curtis grew up in Wylie, Texas on Dogwood Street. He will be remembered as a great baseball and football star by his family and school mates. His family has so many stories to tell of his great plays and accomplishments. He made life-long friends in Wylie where he will always be fondly remembered.
Curtis was an avid fan of sports, NASCAR, home makeover shows, and old war movies. He liked to play his guitar while singing along with Rodger Creager. He was a fan of all music from Van Halen to Pat Green.

Curtis will be loved and missed by his wife of 28 years, Tammy. He has two children who will miss him very much; Morgan Herrera and her partner Austin Stanley, and Turner Herrera.
