Kurtis Melton was born December 1, 1990 and left his earthly home July 10, 2019. Born to Danny and Brenda (Parks) Melton in Enid, OK, Kurtis was the youngest of three children. He attended school in Waynoka where he made his home after moving back from Alva and Ringwood. Kurtis enjoyed many activities including but not limited to camping, fishing, being outdoors, listening to music, and spending time with loved ones. He especially enjoyed water skiing and spending time with his family at Canton Lake. Kurtis enjoyed working at Hometown Café as much as he liked working in the oilfield previously, where he made numerous friends. Family and friends will miss his goofy smile and loving spirit the most.
