A fine gentleman and true patriot. He was a role model and exemplified the finest qualities of duty, honor and country.

My sincere sympathy to Pat and her family on Carl's passing. He was a mentor and a man I admired. I was a witness to his being fired for speaking his mind to the Postmaster General at a midnight meeting in Washington. Carl, of course, was right and was rehired the next morning and I always admired his willingness to speak up when the going got tough. I also remember sharing a plane ride with Carl when he recounted his "capture"of the Metz, France post office during WWII. He was a good man.
