Carl I. "Triple" Fuhrmann III

Joy and the girls, We are so shocked to hear of Tripple passing away. Dan and I will always remember his wonderful smile and how fast he talked and we had to ask him to repeat his words. He was a gentleman and friend. Our prayers are with the family. Dan and Joyce Sloan

Triple was an established active member of Fiji at Tech when I pledged in Fall of 1988. If you had a nickname in the fraternity, there was a good chance Triple had given it to you, and it was usually something that came to his mind at the spur of the moment having fun. He always had a smile on his face and really knew how to have a good time. I´m so sorry for your loss. My prayers are with the family at this time.

Dear Fuhrmann family. Brant family here remembering Dick and Ginger and so many fun times. I retired from Merrill in 2002 and have been out of sight since. The news of losing Triple is a shock. We are saddened by this news. XOXO Phil Brant

Dear Fuhrmann family So sorry for the loss of your precious husband and father . Triple loved buying Joy the most beautiful jewelry. Such an incredible way of showing love to His beautiful bride. Triple will never be forgotton. Respectfully ,Susanne Escobar

Joy and family: I am thinking of you and praying for your family during this time. Triple is a special friend to me and such an amazing example for all within our Merrill family. It is my hope and prayer that you are able to find some peace in the amazing memories you will carry in your hearts always. With sincere sympathy for your loss, Carole Wentz

Triple was one of the first guys I met at TT through Fiji. He immediately started giving me a hard time and I was terrified but that smile was there the whole time... eventually I realized that he just loved to cut up and have a good time with people and that was his way in life...I have met many of his old friend from San Antonio over the years just by chance and the stories were all the same...great guy, fun to be around, hard working and always involved. Same guy I met over 30 yrs ago. ...

I am so sorry. It is so very sad to say goodbye for now. There is comfort in knowing He is in Christ and there is still that connection and a beautiful reunion ahead. Praying for comfort during this hard time.

We are blessed by Christ through all the wonderful people He connects us with throughout our lives. In the fall of 1986 I was fortunate enough to receive an invitation to become a member of Phi Gamma Delta or `Fiji´ at Texas Tech University. I believe our pledge class was 26 members who came from all points of Texas and beyond. One of my pledge brothers made an immediate impression on me: he was very outgoing, had a broad contagious smile and possessed a loud booming laugh! Everybody...

I´m so very saddened to hear of this . My heart and prayers go out to his family during this difficult time .
