Dear Mrs. Busche, Daughter & David:

I would like to express my syympathy on the passing of Carl. I have known Carl for a very long time working at Westinghouse with him years ago before taking jobs in Peoria, Muncie and Orlando. When in town I would always stop in to chat with him for a short time. Now I see David at Walgreen,s from time to time. Sorry I can't stop by since we are in North Carolina for the holidays.

God's blessings to you at this difficult time.

"Life is eternal, and love is immortal,
and death is only a horizon;
and a horizon is nothing save the limit of our sight."

My prayers are with you Kate, David, and Rhonda. We've lost a very gentle soul and a fine husband, father, uncle, and friend. Our lives are the better for having had him while we did.

Godspeed, Uncle Carl! I cherish the many memories of you as I was growing up, memories of our vacations in Colorado, South Dakota, and Florida and places along the way. You were always a very good man!
