Always happy memories of visits to Uncle Carl & Aunt Tish's farm -- days-long Hearts games, that barn swing, and other wonderful days of summer fun. I can still see Uncle Carl's special grin...
Hang on to those beautiful remembrances and he will always be with you -

I was blessed to have grown up with Carl and Tish as my neighbor. So many wonderful childhood memories of Carl taking us on hayrides, forming a neighborhood football team, and sled riding down his hill. He was always there a snow storm plowing our our driveway. I will always remember his smile. God bless and comfort his family.
