Praying for Mrs.Janice and the family during this time of such loss. Mr Carl loved his country & community. He spearheaded many fund raisers to help the needy. He was truly the “good neighbor” and dear friend. Always willing to help you with whatever ya needed.
He will be missed so much. God bless you and comfort you all. Hold on to those good times and memories.
Sorry to hear of Carl’s passing. He was one of my “traveling” buddies from way back. We ate lots of fish and chicken dinners in districts one and two.
Condolences to Carl’s family; especially to Janice, you have been so good to my Mom since my Dad passed.
Goodbye, Carl. My Dad thought very highly of you. I hope you two had a wonderful reunion.
By the way, don’t forget that Carl was a Korean War veteran.
You will be missed, sir.
May God give you peace and comfort. Praying for you daily.
In Christ alone, the coburn family
