RIP MY DEAR FRIEND, I’ve worked with Carl many,many years at UCC/DOW . He was truly a caring and humble person to be around. Enjoyed seeing and relaxing at the campgrounds that he truly enjoyed with his families and friends . So sorry for Ya’ll loss, Carl willbe truly missed by us all. 

I have worked with Carl for 15 years.  Carl and I worked closely during every Acrylics Turnaround on the Cat Change.  He wasn't just a co-worker to me but also a true friend.  Words cannot describe how much I am going to miss him.  Prayers for the entire family.  RIP my Buddy!!  Will never forget you!!

It was a pleasure to have known Carl he was a true Friend. Worked with him many years and enjoyed every minute. Rest Easy My Friend 

I've worked off and on with Carl for nearly 15 years and every memory I have of him is a great one. Carl was a kindhearted person and did everything he could to keep himself and everyone around him safe. He was a part of the Acrylics family and will be greatly missed! RIP buddy!

Where do I even start? You have no idea how much you meant to all of us. You have no idea how much we will miss you being around. I will forever miss you picking on me as much as I'll miss picking on you. You were a huge part of our family and I would give anything to have you back here with us. Camping will never be the same. I love you my favorite senior citizen.  Until we meet again.                       Love, Tricia

I will miss you greatly my friend. We had so many laughs over the years. I could always count on a kind word and a smile when needed. Your kind heart and friendly outlook made everyone around you feel better. Turnarounds will not be the same without you, cat changes will miss your stories and knowledge from years past. I am proud to be able to call you a friend. Rest in peace my friend. 

I have known Carl for over 23 years.  What a great guy and really appreciate the work that he did and the manner in which he did it.  Really good guy to work with.  He will be greatly missed by his work family.  
Condolences to the Dufrene family during this difficult time.

Dufrene family, I am very sorry for your loss.  I worked for many years with Carl on our turnarounds and daily work in Acrylics.  He was always an easy person to get along with and was a good worker.  He will be missed by all who had the pleasure to have known him and worked with him.



Carl was a great friend, I worked with or around him most of my career. I will always remember the fun times and joking we've done. I will miss you Buddy, may God bless you and your Family. 

I had the honor a pleasure of working with Carl, and also getting to know him over the past few years. I enjoyed and will miss our conversations about work and life outside of work. My condolences to your family. Rest easy my friend.

In the decade we worked together we made many memories but one I will cherish is every time I made it back to the back breakroom or ran into you you always asked how my kids and family were doing and then we'd talk about them and your grand babies. Rest easy buddy. You will be truly missed and never forgotten. 

I will always remember Mr Carl and all the times we spent playing horseshoes. He will be missed by me and all of the Yogi horseshoe players.
