Carl was one of a kind. He was the go to diver on a dozen boats Southern Comfort Yacht ran over the last ten years. The only time he wouldn't jump in the water for me on a moments notice was went he was in a deer stand in the middle of no where.

Just last week Carl and Buckshot came out to the City Marina, Carl looked good was up beat and talking shop. Buckshot riding shotgun, eventually wandered over sat on Carl's lap as we contued to talk.

I will truly miss the random conversations.

From now on only Fair Winds Following Seas for you Carl, Bravo Zulu My Friend, sleep well my Brother.

Carl and I came from being simple neighbors to great friends. Carl, you were always here for me, in the good times, as well as in the hard times. You always found a way to make me smile, just by being yourself, a generous, honest, funny guy. I am honored to have been part of your life, to have been able to share so many things with you, laughing at your crazy stories! My heart aches, there are no words to describe my pain. I will miss him dearly my friend. You will be in my heart forever. Love.

Carl was the most caring, straightforward, and dedicated of men.
He cared for all living things deeply. He lived his life of challenges up front, He was a teacher of kindness and trust. I knew him for the past five years only but a longer period could add only to the loss that all of us share with his family, especially his Mom. Buckshot will miss him as the world will. He blessed me with his friendship and may God bless him.

I just wanted to let you know how much Carl was loved by many. Truly respected for his honestly and humor. I for sure know Carl was a special man who had a great heart and will be missed greatly. I am so glad I had the honor to meet him and see him for many years.

Last time we had a long conversation was May 4th when called me to apologize for not staying around long enough to say hello to my husband only has things work their way later in the day they bumped into each other on the docks and got to talk. Of course in our conversation we hit many conversations and mostly of God and his faith. That is why I am confident he is home with our Lord.


May Gods Blessing be with You All. He surely Loved his family he had no qualms stating that fact and May Gods Blessings and Comfort be with You All.

Love
Barbara
