Dear Family and Friends:
We are so sorry to hear this about Carl. Carl was always a good friend to my deceased wife Janet Bowen Taylor and me and to our children Kathy, Virginia and Frank when we all lived in the Lake-of-the-Woods. Our thoughts, prayers and deepest sympathy go to you at this time. Kathy Taylor, Frank Taylor, and Virginia (Taylor) and Mike Stollings.

Although I did not know your loved one personally, I am truly sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in Gods promise found at Revelation 21:4- “And He will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will be no more…”

Uncle Carl seemed like a great guy. I really enjoyed the visits with him and my dad the last couple of years, getting to know Carl, Helen and both of you. May God Bless all of you! My favorite saying from him was, I would have taken better care of myself if I’d have known I was gonna live this long!
