My friend, Carl, was a Colossus among men. His wit and intellect were rarely matched, an ironic turn or satirical remark never lost upon him. Not only that he was a phenomenal musician and friend, who could drive you insane with both. Im going to miss you brother. I'll see ya on down the road.

I have known Carl since he was a child, watching him grow up with my brother, Kyle. He was a very generous and kind soul. Always ready with a joke or a hug. He was a huge support when I needed him and I will miss him more than words can express. His personality was on of a kind. Love Always - Amy

I attended Concord with Carl. When I heard of his passing I was greatly saddened. Though I have not seen him in many years, my mind was instantly taken back to his bright blue eyes and big smile. Carl was kind, funny, and a good friend. My thoughts are with your family during this challenging time.
