David,

I worked with your Dad for about seven years and always admired his kind and gentle spirit plus his ready smile that always made your day better. He was a true delight to work with or to just share a conversation.

David, So sorry to hear about Carl. He was so loved by everyone that knew him. I did not see notice in the paper or I would have tried to get there. Carl was the gentleman that hired me went I went to work at Stockton. Last time I saw his was at your house in Littleton, CO. I talked to him several times since all of you moved to Mena but never got there for a visit. He had a great life, and thanks to you and your wife it continued for a long time. Ginger Martin
