Not sure what to say?

Since we became friends with Carl and Debbie in 1982, our life has been richer. We could tell stories for hours and not run out of material. Losing Carl has left a hole that can never be filled. I can remember the time we were camping at Newago State Park and got flooded out by a rainstorm at 3 AM. Everyone was feeling sorry for themselves and here comes Carl , up to his ankles in water. He had a big smile and in classic Carl style declared “ This is GREAT !! “ . His tent was...

Carl Grubb was my daughters coach for "Portage Lightning A". We spent many wonderful weekends and have hundreds of fun memories with Carl. He will be missed....by many.

The Voshel family was saddened to learn of Carl's death. We have wonderful memories of our shared soccer experiences going back many years. We hope that you may be able to draw upon these and others that are close to your heart during this difficult time.

Dear Lisa, Bill and I are so very sorry to hear the news about your Dad. I hope that the many wonderful memories that you have of him can get you and your entire family through this difficult time. With love,

Carl was in our TEKE house starting in 1973 at Albion College.Needless to say it was a fun filled year. I was a transfer student and I believe he was a freshman with no room in the freshman dorm. Carl was always fun and willing to participate in all the creative activities that were dreamed up. Carl came to our wedding in 1975 and have a great picture of him. Maureen and I are truly saddened by his passing.

I am an agent who over the years have had the pleasure of working and getting to know Carl. I am saddened to hear of his passing - he was a joy to be around and always in a good mood!! I loved his crazy ties - which were usually soccer balls!! He was such an asset to our industry and will be missed.
