Coach P, you will always be in my heart forever. You were one of the few who always believed in me and I will never forget that. My heart goes out to you Marisa for your loss. I know his spirit will always remain in you, it always has. You will always be missed coach, but never forgotten.

A beautiful spirit. A deep thinker. A snazzy dresser. A witty observer.
In the fall of 1990, my family relocated to West Hartford.

Carl was a great neighbor who always took time to stop and chat. He was passionate about his teaching and spoke with great enthusiasm about his students and the wonderful ideas he had for them. His friendly attitude and smile will be missed by all of us in the neighborhood.
My condolences to his family for their untimely loss.

Mr. P was such a great man and an amazing educator. I can still remember him jumping on desks trying to get my class enthused about social studies. We all felt his pain that year when he first learned of the illness, but I'll never forget how he would still teach with that same huge smile on his face. We'll all miss you, Mr. P.

Thank you Coach P. for teaching me to have a positive mental attitude, to set personal goals, and for your enthusiastic pep talks on mental preparation as well as training for running a race. I appreciate and will never forget your commitment to the Conard cross country and track teams as well as the West Hartford school system.
My sympathy to your family and friends.
