Carl was a man, larger than life, with a quick wit and a wonderful sense of humor. He was a defender of his country, and an inspiration to his family. Carl showed such love to his entire family, always. He will be held in loving memory by his family, and missed so much by his grandkids. Carl enjoyed crafting. He polished rocks and gem-stones, and set them for gifts to friends and family, he enjoyed working with wood and making custom furniture. Carl was meticulous in all that he did, as evidenced by the beautiful hand-crafted wooden shelving, hand-made Lincoln log "Fort Jackson", and quirky stuffed animal cages he made for his grandchildren. He loved to travel, and especially loved Hawaii. He will rest at Tahoma National Cemetery in Kent. The time and date are unknown at this time. In lieu of flowers, please give to a charity of your choice. Marty Huss: "He will always be in my heart. He really was the love of my life, and his life just ended way too soon."
