Not sure what to say?

Carl was my nextdoor neighbor in Central Park. One of my biggest childhood thrills was getting to fly with Carl! What a great guy to take time to g8ve one 9f the "little kids"in the the neighborhood a chance to experience flying. That was in the mid 60's and I will always remember his kindness, and his parents also

Safe journey old friend. I remember our conversation about your paradise in Florida at the high school reunion in Birmingham in the 80's. you were so happy to be back South.

I have known Carl for 40 plus years. Although we have not been in contact for many years I ocassionaly wondered what he is up to. I was Carl that started me riding dirt bikes and we had many adventures together. My love to the family

I knew Carl "Canary" very well while in High School with him at West End....1960-1964. He loved life and humor and it seemed to get him in trouble at times (guess we all did.)
I have often wondered what happened to Carl but not surprised at what he had done with his life. Just like I remember him. I was very sorry to learn of his death.
May God continue to bless his family.
