A very good man to work with. Carl was firm but always fair. A very good sense of humor at all times. A great attribute to railroaders. Rest in peace my friend.

My heart is broken to hear of this news. This was one of my best supervisors that I've ever had. He taught me so much and I will truly value every single lesson learned. May GOD bless this entire family!
