Though we mourn his loss, we also celebrate the beautiful moments we shared with him, the stories, the laughter, and the love. His memory will continue to inspire us to live with kindness and resilience, just as he did. May Carl rest in peace, knowing how much he meant to all of us.

In the hours of pain and sorrow,
When the world brings no relief
When the eye is dim and heavy,
And the heart oppressed with grief, God caresOur love and prayers are with you Brother Tony & Sister Janice

Carl was quiet and appeared stoic but had a big heart. It amazed me to meet people on my jobs and elsewhere who knew him from landscaping, painting, auto repairs and other places. Once I told them he was my brother, their faces would light up and they'd say that they could see the resemblance. My heart is heavy at his passing but at peace in knowing his pain is over and that we will be warmly welcomed by so many relatives who've preceded him in death. He gave me a nickname that had a funny story behind it, and he was the only person who called me that. I knew he was in an especially good mood when he shouted that nickname as his greeting. He loved spoiling children and always had treats for them.
