Dear Shirley, So sorry to hear of your loss. Many years ago you used to come to my mother's general store in Prospect and I remember your friendliness. Loosing a sibling is never easy, and you and your family are in my prayers.

I enjoyed many conversations with Carl at Grace Church. Much of what he did for our church will go un-noticed. I know him as a man with extensive musical knowledge, a dedicated family man, a devout episcopalian, with a rapier wit. I will miss our chats, his humor and his friendship while taking solace in the knowledge that he is in a better place.
