Carl was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois to the late Carl and Mildred Mohlin nee Lynz. At the age of 16, he moved to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania where he resided for a few years before joining the United States Army. Carl eventually moved to New Jersey before settling in Port St. Lucie 21 years ago. He worked for 31 years as a printer for Smith and Dunlap. Carl was a lifetime member of The American Legion and was also a member of The DAV-Disabled American Veterans. Carl enjoyed wood working projects and often gave away his work to family and friends. He spent countless hours during the night working in his garage on one project or another. He enjoyed reading Tom Clancy novels and watching scary adventurous movies. Years ago before becoming disabled, Carl was an avid fisherman. He will be missed for his unique dry sense of humor. He was a jokester at heart and loved to tease his friends and family. He was always making people laugh. Carl cherished the time he spent with friends and family eating out. He loved food and companionship. Whenever he would walk in, they would bring him food and say "Here comes trouble". But he truly enjoyed the staff and they truly enjoyed his company. He loved children and would go up to families and make children laugh. His generous heart and compassion towards others will be missed by all he knew.
