Dear Lind Family, I knew Carl from his bus driving days of transporting our clients to and from the DAC. What a joy to have met him and learn of his sense of humor and fun personality! He took great care of our folks with humor and kindness every day he worked. I also had the priviledge of dancing with him a few times out at the monthly Silver Creek dances! He had a zest for life that was contagious! He will be missed as a North Shore treasure. Much sympathy to his siblings, children and grandchildren in your great loss. Jana ( Maxwell) Olson
