“Curt” was born October 26, 1933 in Forest City, Iowa, the first child of Alice and Earl MacVey. He grew up in Britt, Iowa, and graduated from Britt High School in 1951.
In July of that same year, he began his working career with Northwestern Bell Telephone Company. He took a short “vacation” from the Bell system in 1954, and entered the US Army in December of that year.
He served with the 67th Medium Tank Battalion in Germany as a radio repairman. After serving in Germany, he was honorably discharged in November of 1956. He then resumed his career with Northwestern Bell and spent most of his career in Des Moines, where he was a manager of the Network Planning Group.
Following his retirement in 1986, Curtis became an active volunteer for The United Way, Habitat for Humanity, the Southeast Elementary Grandfriend program, and Ankeny First United Methodist Church. He also enjoyed his Tuesday morning coffee group.
Curtis is survived by his wife, Eileen, four children, Karen, Karl, Laura, and Kirk, and their spouses; six grandchildren, Chantelle Maxwell, Nicolle Brokaw, Eric Johnson, Michelle Johnson, Rylan MacVey, and Marisa MacVey; 1 great-grandchild, Noah Maxwell; and a brother Paul MacVey, of Ames, IA.
