Carl was a special uncle. He was always kind and so encouraging to us when we got together for our fun family gatherings. We will miss him but know he is God's hands. We send out condolences to Joy and our cousins, Joanne, David, Richard and their families. With love, Tom and Marilyn Zeleznik HHI, SC
