Carl was one of a kind. He was always ready to help with anything. I enjoyed working with him at Eastman. My prayers are with the family at this time of loss.

I met Carl and Arlene in 1984. Boogie and I had just started dating. We had many fun adventures together. From cruising, camping, talking and much more! When Boogie was sick Carl would be there in a minute if he needed him. Carl was a wonderful friend!
I went to school at Judson with Carl and knew to entire family. I thought of him when I would drive down 7 Pines Road.
I know he will be missed.
I worked with Carl for many years at Eastman. I knew Carl to be an extremely talented and highly skilled fellow. He was always kind and welcoming anytime we bumped into each other. Best wishes to his family and I pray for comfort from above in the coming days.
I worked with Carl many years at texas Eastman. He was a good man and Friend.
My head is in a jumble trying to pick out what is my favorite memory that we shared together. However all I can think is the way you would smile and how the corner of your eyes crinkled whenever you would laugh. All I felt when being in your presence was love and laughter. I wish I could give you one more hug—one that’s a little bit tighter and longer. I love you and miss you so very much Grandpa. I know one day again I will be able to give you another hug and hear your laughter again.
I don’t have many pictures. The one of you sitting on the can of tomato sauces because you were joking that you needed to have a seat. I’m so glad you came to our wedding, you treated me like family the minute you met me. You love your family and I’m thankful to be apart of it. We will miss you, and I know you didn’t want a fuss, so this is my way of honoring you. You will always be in our hearts. We’ll see you again one day and I can’t wait to hug your neck!
With Sympathy for Carl's Wife and Family.
