Emily, Bucky, Gary and Jimmy,
My deepest sympathies to you and your families, I have so many great memories of Carl. He always had that big smile and something good to say everytime I saw him.. When I went into the USAF during Viet Nam, he gave me a free haircut. When we coached together with Stevens Pipe for CYO, he was a tremendous steadying influence on me. so many more wonderful thoughts. Thank you for sharing him with me, I'll never forget him, a Class Act all the way.
