I was so sad to discover that such a wonderful man as Carl had passed-away in 2013. I worked for Carl as a new Agent in the Detroit FBI Office. He was always easy to speak with about a specific investigation, and a pleasure to work for. I will never forget that he would respond to all bank robberies in the Detroit area, and would appear on the scene holding the Thompson sub machine gun. He will never be forgotten by his family, friends, and those who knew him at the Bureau. God Bless you, Carl.

Carl was one of the most selfless people I've ever known. He was smart, kind and charitable. A true gentleman. He will be missed. I hope that the grief will pass gently for those that loved him.

I met Carl at daily mass at St. Gertrude's, he, Donna and I became "church buddies". He was one of a kind, a very spiritual, smart and funny guy. Many times he would lead the rosary and chaplet of divine mercy after mass. A few times I went with them to the soup kitchen, a place that was very dear to his heart. He always had a smile and kind word, and thought of others first.
My heart goes out to the family, May God's love comfort you all.
May he rest in peace.
