    I was so sorry to hear about Carl. I know over the years we move and don't see one another as we would like to. I remember things that we did when we were younger and will always think the world of Carl. Please accept our condolences

    I new Carl for many years in the business. He was always calm even though I would haunt him a 100 times to make sure my delivery would be done!! He was a good friend especially when I got cancer. We talked all the time about our pets. I will truly miss him, God needed another angel. Will pray for you all that God will give you strength and peace. Marie Morelli
