I met Carl and his brothers in the early 80’s. We remained friends through the 90’s as I also knew Christina since I was in kindergarten. 

Sad to hear he’s gone. My condolences to his family.

Carl was a resident at the shelter I work at. 
His big smile and presence is, and will be missed greatly. He always had kind words and never complained when he could have.  I loved Carl for his silly wit and humor, dry as it could be sometimes. He was charming, never letting me forget that I was a doppelganger for Queen Victoria and reminding to rule as one. Carl made me smile and laugh on bad days and was kind to people around him. I will think of Carl often, with a smile and good memories. 
Love you Carl

I was honored to meet Carl, in March of 2020 and knew him until his unfortunate departure😪. Had many, I mean many hearted conversations with him. He always made me laugh. I will greatly miss him & he has impacted my life in more ways that I will never be able to tell him. This saddens me so much. I wish I could have done more and im sorry

RIP Carl
You printed this song for me years ago now it holds true for you. Pink Floyd's:
"Wish you were here"  My deepest condolences to your Family!  From one of Carl's past Legion friends.

On a long and lonesome highway
East of Omaha
You can listen to the engine
Moanin' out his one note song
You can think about the woman
Or the girl you knew the night before
But your thoughts will soon be wandering
The way they always do
When you're ridin' sixteen hours
And there's nothin' much to do
And you don't feel much like ridin',
You just wish the trip was through
Here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
Here I go
Playin' star again
There I go
Turn the page
Well you walk into a restaurant,
Strung out from the road
And you feel the eyes upon you
As you're shakin' off the cold
You pretend it doesn't bother you
But you just want to explode
Most times you can't hear 'em talk,
Other times you can
All the same old cliches,
"Is that a woman or a man?"
And you always seem outnumbered,
You don't dare make a stand
Here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
Here I go
Playin' star again
There I go
Turn the page
Out there in the spotlight
You're a million miles away
Every ounce of energy
You try to give away
As the sweat pours out your body
Like the music that you play
Later in the evening
As you lie awake in bed
With the echoes from the amplifiers
Ringin' in your head
You smoke the day's last cigarette,
Rememberin' what she said
Here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
Here I go
Playin' star again
There I go
Turn the page
Here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
Here I go
Playin' star again
There I go
There I go.


There you go...... Rest in peace my friend.  I will never forget.

We love you Carl. Always have and always will. I know you lost your way but everyone deserves redemption and your boys know that their dad was - at his core - a loving and true friend. Until we meet again cousin . Love, Connie
