Carl was the light of my day as a fellow bus driver my mornings wasn't right until I saw his face and spoke with him! Last time I saw him I t0ld him how much I loved him and he told me that life was too short to not laugh and have fun and that's exactly what I'm gonna do! Carl was a great man and my prayers to the family. He was a gigantic presence so I can only imagine how huge the hole is.

My heart is so sad to hear of Carl´s passing. Such an amazing man who would do whatever he could for anyone. Always waved to me while passing in our busses, asking me how I was doing and my family was, shared a special moment with me after my dad had passed and sang to me some song with "Angel" in it every morning. I honestly couldn´t tell you if it was a real song or one he made up but it brightened my day. He made our world a much better place to live in and made our work day have some sunshine in it . Our department´s hearts are shattered. I´m sure "his" kids will miss him terribly as well. Prayers and hugs to his family and all who were blessed to have known him.
