Carl and his family left many good memories. I remember Carl's father John doing one legged squats with the other leg on a chair. I remember going to the Von Allmen's home on the east side of Madison for a Sunday picnic in their large back yard, and Carl and his brothers wrestling vigorously after the meal. I remember family reunions at Tenney Park in Madison with lots of beer and soda and lots of card playing. I remember thinking they were going to break a table when they slapped down their trump card. I remember Carly's happy nature and constant smile...always having a good time. Lots of laughing. We wish Carl happy trails and God's blessing. Our mothers were sisters.
