We are so sorry for your loss!! Carl was always quick to give my family a hand, especially after Mom passed away. He was a kind and generous neighbour to everyone on Elgin Street West. We would come home to find Dad’s drive way blown out, or to hear that Carl had come to help Dad with a broken appliance. With Love, Lisa & Paula Haight

Dear Anita, Ingrid, Monica, Elke and families: Our sincerest condolences to you in the passing of Carl. I still recall the day that he met me ( a very nervous new grad coming for a job interview) at the St. Marys train station. His big smile and kind manner allowed me to feel right at home and shortly after I began my career as a Lab Tech in St. Marys. He was a very proud father and often spoke of his girls and how each of them were doing in their chosen careers. Meeting up with him in the community, he never passed up the opportunity for a good chat and often reminisced about the “ good old days” in the lab. Please know that our prayers are with you all at this very difficult time. God bless. Holly & Tom Osgerby

Dear Anita and family: Sincere condolences as you mourn the death of dear Carl. I am grateful for his gentle and kind ways when I would call him for information. I always kept my fingers crossed that he would answer the phone. He had a special way of making everyone feel that no request was too small and everyone was important. His smile was contagious, he made everyone feel better about the day. In later years whenever I saw Carl, he always had time for a chat. He is someone I will never forget. Kindness personified. May God keep his arms around you in the days ahead. God Bless, Love Joan

My deepest condolences to Anita, Ingrid, Monica & Elke for the passing of Carl. I used to sneak into the Lab when I was a kid and he'd show me all the cool stuff they did. I always was around his house as Ingrid & I were the same age and would hang out there. Cherish all the great memories with him and he will always be there in your heart.

Dear Anita and family: We were so saddened to hear of Carl's passing. He will be remembered as a wonderful neighbour we were eager to exchange eggs for rhubarb and other treats. Happy to share his advice when asked and quietly watchful of the neighbourhood from his perch in the sunroom and weather permitting-the garage. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
