Curtiss was a kind friend and mentor. I had always hoped we would collaborate on a project and now the chance is gone. I will hold that smile in my memory, that sharp mind and the quiet calm Curtiss carried everywhere.

You were a great friend I Will miss you always..

I am deeply saddened to learn of the passing of our friend and teammate, Curtiss Pulitzer. We will cherish the memory of a great human being, with whom we shared extraordinary experiences for so many years working in support of the juvenile correctional system in Puerto Rico. Curtiss was a very special person to me, an excellent professional to whom I owe the opportunity to have helped me develop the work plan for juvenile institutions in Puerto Rico.

Without a doubt, I will never forget the wonderful experience of knowing him. Curtiss will always be in our memories... My condolences to all his family and friends on his passing.

Curtiss was an invaluable part of our monitoring team in Puerto Rico. I speak for the entire team in expressing our condolences.   His wisdom and guidance in the the youth facilities will be sorely missed. He was a wonderful team member for more than 20 years and was just at the end of his service with us.  His accomplishments were remarkable. Our condolences go to his family and friends here and in Israel.

I was saddened to learn about the passing of Curtiss.  I grew up with the Verstandig family in Riverdale and remember Linda and Curtiss first meeting and getting married. It was so special and the fact that Curtiss came from some German background gave us something to talk about since my Mom also escaped Germany. He enjoyed speaking to me about architecture since we were both architects. I wasn't able to be a part of the funeral as we live in Boca Raton, however, I was able to watch it and must admit, I cried through a good part of it...obviously an amazing family and everyone spoke so well...I was proud to have been able to work with him on the Arlen house project as he was kind enough to ask me to help out. I will miss him as I miss Linda..sending the Kleinberg's love to this so special family.
