Carl was a man who never met a stranger and took genuine interest in the people he got to know day by day over the years. He liked to tell stories and always had a bright smile on his face.

Carl was a retired driver for the civil service and worked security at the Hancock Bridge Gas & Shop. He was a member of Gulf Coast Baptist Church and a Marine Veteran of the Korean War.
