Oh, the adventure of working for Carl in the '80's and 90's! Never a dull moment! I'll never forget the disappearing tuxedo, the boat he always left in the water too late in the season, the runs to the Bridgeville Trust, the dog that ate my boots (was it a German Shepard?), sitting around the Christmas tree with Carl, Hedy-Jo and Josh, and of course his answering machine message which made you think for a second he was actually on the line and couldn't hear you! So many great, crazy, and happy memories. How about when he dressed as Santa Claus, driving a Corvette, and got into a fender-bender? Still wish I could have seen the other driver's face on that one! He made every day at work seem not so much like work but that you were just along for this crazy ride and just strap in and hold on!
Hard to believe that someone larger than life and so full of life (so much like Hedy-Jo!) could be gone much too soon. What a blessing to his friends and family he was. What a joy to have known him, and the entire Behling and Shaw families. Those days are forever in my heart. Godspeed, Carl.
