Geri, Andree and I were deeply saddened by the news of Carl's passing. He was a great inspiration and influence on my life, during the times he worked for my father and the times I worked for him. Our thoughts and prayers will be with you through this difficult time.

Carl took me as an auto mechanics apprentice in the 70's. He was very tolerant with me at a time that I didn't really deserve it. Thanks Carl........ Mario Zanotto
