Last night I looked at his enormous discography on allmusic.com. What a legacy!

  It's sad to hear this news. Curtis was an outstanding musician. As I recall he and Yusef Lateef attended Wayne State at the same time. Rest in peace, Curtis and thank you for the great music.

I used to see him around Detroit back in my college days - Jay Buridan 11:13:29 05/11/21 (0)
On a good day, I'd have sufficient funds to finance a glass of beer from the lounge of Belcrest Apartments across from WSU's music school which is where he sometimes would be in the evening. RIP Mr. Fuller.
