Curtis Kimball, affectionately called 'The Pancake Guy,' was a beloved figure in San Francisco's Bernal Heights neighborhood, renowned for his initiative of hosting free pancake parties for neighbors during the COVID-19 pandemic. His generosity earned him national recognition. Tragically, Kimball passed away following emergency cardiac surgery, prompting an outpouring of grief from the community. He is survived by his pregnant wife Nicole and two young daughters, and a GoFundMe has been established to support his family in this difficult time.
“With heavy hearts, we share the devastating loss of Curtis Kimball the legendary ‘crème brûlée guy’ who (along with his brother Brian Kimball) took San Francisco by storm in 2009 through the guerrilla street food movement they started.”
