I came to know Mr. LaFleur nearly 2 years ago at the Biotronics Kidney Center in Orange. I enjoyed our conversations and his wit. I considered him a friend and someone I cared about and I just knew he was a good man and now he is singing in his heavenly chorus. Yes, Curtis LaFleur you will be missed.
