How lost I've been without my good friend. All these years have been vacant, without much meaning. Carl was the best man I ever met out of thousands. Bob J.

I met you at "The Tuba" years ago. You gave me a quick history of Jazz and generously bought me a drink. I didn't forget it, thank you.

Sandy, Carla & family, I cannot tell you how much Carl meant to me and my family. He was a part of us when I was young and became a bigger part as our kids grew to know him. We just expected him on Sunday for dinner and to play cards. He will be greatly missed by all of us especially my dad. We lost him but we have a lot of happy memories. Margie Miele
