CURTIS W. PLUMMER Curtis W. Plummer, age 79, passed away at his residence on Mother's Day, Sunday, May 10, 2015.

For sixty-one years, he was the loving and devoted husband of Mrs. Martha Lloyd Plummer of the residence. Following high school graduation, he obtained a business degree from Carolina College of Commerce located in Florence, SC.
