equipped for useful work in life he like
many a young man with energy and

Carl was "a very fine and capable
young man, gentle and mild-mannered.

one OF the mysteries of human exis-
tence that is hard to understand. But

a complete, well rounded life. Though
young in years, Carl had passed
through many varied experiences in
life and was ready to be transferred
to that fuller life beyond the skies.
