Dear Farquhar Family,
     I am so sorry to hear of your dear loved one's passing.  Even though it has been many years since I have seen him, I remember the sound of his voice, his kind smile, and his wonderful sense of humor.  He loved his family, that was easy to see.  Thinking of all of you at this sad time, and praying you find comfort with each other and all of the many wonderful memories you have of him.     


Carl always had a smile for me and a sincere concern for my well being. He was like a father and a friend. He loved to laugh and talk about stories of his family. One of the most amazing gifts he had was his beautiful voice. The first time he sang for me I couldn’t stop smiling and clapping. A most amazing man who will be missed by many. Rest well my friend - you deserve it. A life well done!!


I’ll always remember the sparkle in his eyes reflecting the deep love , strength and beauty in his heart.   He encouraged brightness and happiness and conjured up the special  like his jolly Santa Clause calls from the North Pole to his grandchildren complete with jingle bells.  God blessed Carl with a magnificent singing voice that touched hearts. He was so proud of his sons, their wives and his grandchildren . His love of Dorothy was breath taking. I’ll carry his spirit in my heart. Blessings of peace to a life well lived by Carl and to the entire Farquhar clan.  His soul rests with God. 

I fondly remember Carl and Dorothy from Grace Presbyterian Church in Detroit in about 1948 from choir and from a Young Couples Association.  My late wife, Marilyn and I played Pinochle with them for many years,  almost until Marilyn's death in 2002.  And kept in touch until the last year or two.

I now live at Samaritas Senior Living in Bloomfield Township.  I no longer drive and will reluctantly not be able to attend the visitation or funeral.  Love to all the "kids".

I'm Charlie Horner, a friend and former business associate in the days that Carl had the trailer shop on Livernois. Carl was a great friend with a good sense of humor and a good business sense as well. We worked together for about three years. During this time, we lost Doug and eventually closed the shop. Please accept my sincere condolences. A good person, we will miss him. 
Rest in Peace Carl.    

Cubby and Dot treated all of their Sons' friends as their own children.  They taught all of us how a marriage should work through their example.  A life well lived Mr. Farquhar.  Thank you.
