With much sympathy to the family,
along with Henry and Joan.
Carl was my childhood best friend and neighbor. Summertime childhood play,
kick-the-can, nightly wiffle ball, campout in the back yard and catch the firefly's... the best of times... and playful mischief, if they only knew. Rest in peace, and may we all play again in a better place.
