Just remembering how much Carl loved flying kites and helping others fly them as well. The sky is, indeed, a bit emptier right now.

I worked with Carl back in the early 1980s at the BHA. He was one of the nicest men I'd ever met. May his memory be eternal!

We have a saying that there's an empty space in the sky whenever a fellow kite flier passes. We will miss you Carl and we will always be trying to fill that empty space with color. Godspeed.
