Scott Barrett tol me about your dad's passing at Joe's.

I am sorry for your loss;however, blessed that I had the chance to know "Old Carr" for several years. He was a gentleman in the broadest sense of the word.

Jean and I will be out of town on Monday but we will be thinking of you then.

I remember once Mr. Carr was asked to tell us a little about himself and he started, "Well, I was very precocious as a child.... Oh, wait. That's probably a little too far back!" My prayers go out to the Carr family on their loss. Mr. Carr was and is a great man.
