He worked since he was 13 years old to support his family. His jobs included logging, raising bees, working as a mechanic, and his latest job was working in the coal mines for 25 years. Carl always looked out for his family to the best of his ability. He will be remembered for his quick wit, infectious smile, and for his ability to love without question.
