    Shannon, Doris and all the family: We were shocked to hear about Carl. We go back a long way with both Shannon’s family and Doris’ family. Didn’t find out about this until Saturday noon. Shannon still miss Edie and Fred and know it’s been hard for Doris after Lawrence passed but we have the assurance of seeing our loved ones one day. We are right here in Davisville if you need us.

    sorry to hear about Carl…he was well loved by all his peers and family…he had many friends growing up…I know that I haven’t been around Bratt for some 40 years so I haven’t had the privilege of being around Carl and family much…I loved all my relatives even though I’m not with you as much as I would like to be…you are in my thoughts and my heart as I love each of you…and I know that Doris,Judy,Marion,Shannon, and his children and grands will miss him, and always remember that God is in control and that one day we will have the privilege of seeing Carl again…love to all of you…

    Carl Copper was a good man, he loved his wife and children, worked hard all his life, and had the respect from his community!
    I know he will be missed tremendously! My thoughts and prayers are with Shannon and the children. Praying God will give them the strength needed to get through this.
