Carl proudly served his country in the US Coast Guard during WWII. For over 33 years, Carl serviced typewriters at IBM where he was well respected for his knowledge and skill. He was an avid dahlia grower and gardener, giving away hundreds of tomatoes every year to neighbors and friends. He was a long time member of the Wisconsin Dahlia Society and won many awards for his prized dahlias.

He will be forever missed and loved.
