Sad to learn of Carl´s passing. He was an outstanding dorm parent, Dean of Students and quite an artist too. I enjoyed several visits with him at his Toccoa Georgia home. He treasured his large and friendly dogs: Coco, Tara and Jack.

Carl was a good man. He cared about the students and they respected him for that. He definitely made an impact on the life´s of many.
