    Carl was an outstanding man with so much to offer. I think of him when I see my fish pond. My heart hurts for Patsy and the children and siblings. He will be sorely missed by all who knew him.

    I worked closely with Carl for around 10 years at Arnold AFB. He taught me a lot of common sense things as a young Engineer about how things are constructed. I am grateful for his mentoring, and he helped me to become a better Engineer. He was a good man and he will be sorely missed. For Bates, Vicki, Cole, Corrie Anne, and the whole family, I know this is a difficult time and I pray for God’s loving comfort for all of you. Always cherish the memories you have made together. May God bless and keep you.

    Dear one, I am so sorry for your heart brokenness. I pray that God can comfort you day by day, week by werk, month by month and year by year. I am older and a bit forgetful but I think that Carl and Jerry were in the National Guard together. I just wanted you to know you are in my thoughts and prayer and I care because you are hurting so.❤
