Good bye Daddy:

My cell phone batteries have no juice so I can't call, but we will talk later.
When I was 5, I thought you were the tallest man in the world, you would
pick me up and toss me around in the air. You taught me to tie my shoes
left handed, I bowl left handed, we played catch on the front sidewalk, you
taught me to play baseball left handed. Sorry about the golf though, that
I had to learn "right handed". We played golf every father's day until 1995,
the year I moved to Tucson. I miss that. The boys that hung around the house
will always remember the "Carl look", you know the one where one eye closes
and the other eye brow lifts up, any one who knows that look knows what it
means, I have seen it myself many times. NO worries, no tears, we will see
each other soon enough and you can lift me in the air again. Love you Daddy.

Dear Jane and all the family, our hearts were sad to learn of Carl's illness and passing. He provided the family with much...especially love and beautiful carpentry. I know you all will miss him and will cherish the memories you have. Carl lived the way he wanted and that in itself is to be admired and respected. He was a good man, a good soul and will be remembered fondly by us.
Love, Dave & Mary Klonowski and Pops too
