My husband and I were very sad to hear of "Doc's" passing. He was my physician as a child (I'm talking back in the 70's) and then we crossed paths again while walking our own Labs at the Fraser Flying Club. We enjoyed visiting with him and Monty. I've spoken to you, Mrs. Becker, on a few occasions when I've seen you in your formal capacity as a member of the Mental Health Board and told you of our weekly little get togethers with our dogs. When we were out there this past Saturday morning, we stopped and had a moment of silence and said a prayer. Our deepest sympathy to the family.

God Bless, Mike and Claudette Trombley

Yes I remember Doc. ( as I knew him ) he would come to the Fraser flying field and some-times he would fly his RC Airplane and other times he would have his dog with him, he will be missed as I knew him, being a retired nurse and friend. God Bless Him------Lenny Grandmason.

Its with sadnes that we learned of Carl's passing. I appreciated Carl's support during a difficult period of expansion and growth. He was amodel for young physicians, who wished to play leadership roles among their peers.
