Miller Carl

Hello, Sandra: frankly I cannot accept that he is no longer with us. I hope you are doing well in your new life without him.

1989-1995 I belonged to Carls gym. What a man -- there will never be another like him. They say there are no absolute truths -- but he absolutely knew his stuff. Example: I told him I had sharp pains in my back after sitting down and standing up, then taking a few steps. He told me it was the membrane in my hip, that all I needed to do was point my toes outward to widen the space. Presto -- the pains were gone and never returned.

Carl was a sweetheart of a bear - a big teddy bear. He had more interesting stories than anybody I know and always had a joke to tell.

I looked around and said “now THIS is a gym!” In no time, Carl had me throwing the bar over my head, Olympic style. He made me stronger and filled me with confidence, frequently calling me into the gym to train together. Those are memories...

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.
In loving memory of the one, and the only:
Mr. Carl Miller, a legend in his own time.
Blessings, Donna, Cherie and Monique Trujillo
