Charles Conrad Carter

Conrad was my uncle, my mother was his sister. I called him Uncle Charlie. He was a fine man, always had a kind word for everyone. I last talked to him a few years ago when my son received his PhD. I was so proud to tell him that we had another doctor in the family, and he was delighted. His sense of humor was unmatched, and we will miss him at family gatherings.

Dear Conrad- Our family thoroughly enjoyed knowing you. Janelle did as well. Thank you for helping to make the last 5 years of our mother's life, special.

Much love, ~John
