Uncle Carl was one of the nicest people I have known. His love of life was contagious, as was his wit and sense of humor. His friendship with my father, Alec was a life long example of brotherly love. They spoke on a daily basis, bonded by a love of business and kinship.
At age 19, I sailed from Hr Grace to Gloucester on the Polar Reefer, Carl met me on the wharf in Gloucester and took me under his wing for a few days. His family were away in Maine at their summer home. I had a great time visiting him and seeing how his business worked. A fond memory, I will always cherish.
They were quite a family. Jack, Alec, Ruth,Bert, Dot and Carl.
All very accomplished and proud of their heritage. All are fondly remembered.
My sincere condolences to Ian , Keith and their families.
