I extend my sincere sympathy to Carl's wife, children, grand-children, his brother Clarence and all his family. I attended grade school, jr. high school and "Blazer" with Carl and Clarence. I remember that both of these twin boys were quiet, mannerly, kind and respected our teachers,----- but in Grade School---if Carl started laughing in class about something then Clarence would also, and then that started a chain reaction of fun and giggling in the entire class-----Good Memories ----Debbie Howard (Daniels)
