    Carl was my favorite cousin; a great nephew to my Dad; the two of them were so much alike. Missing both of them.

    I worked with Carl at Oak Hill for many years. He was such a great guy. Everyone loved him! I’ll always remember the "miniature" vegetables he brought us from his garden and the laughs we all shared about that. I’ve thought of him many times since he retired. Those memories always bring a smile to my heart. He was a joy. Sending sincere condolences to his family and friends.

    I recall Mr. Ciotti allowing me to tag along as a fifth in a foursome with his boys. Plenty of trips to Latta Lea, and fishing at Longpond. Many fond memories. Condolences to the family for your loss.
