I used to tutor Carl @ the King center when he was in third grade. I never saw him without a smile on his face. He was a good boy and I am sure he was a wonderful man.
Farewell Carl, you and your smile will be greatly missed.

THE MEASURE OF A MAN:
Not - "how did he die"
But - "how did he live"
Not - "what did he gain"
But - "what did he give"
These are the units to measure the worth of a man, as a man, regardless of birth.

Good-bye gentle angel, dear sweet cousin of mine
You know you'll be missed
It definitely wasn't your time.
We never saw it coming
So this we don't understand
I guess it's one of those things that was in GOD's plan.
