I knew Carl for many, many years. He was an amazing craftsman, and I appreciated his work. I will miss chatting with him at the places we would run into each other. My deepest condolences to the family. Landis Hersh.

Gail:  I am so sorry to hear that Carl has passed away.  Where did the years go?  You were dating Carl the same time I was dating my husband.  I often think about you and our trips back and forth to work.  I would love to hear from you.  My thoughts will be with you and your family during this difficult time.  Always remember, “To live in the hearts you leave behind is not to die”.  Doris Scheller-Kiehl
