He was married to a woman named Nora and they lived on Terrylynn Ave for a long time.. I was a child the last time I saw him. I know he is buried in Calvary Cemetery, Section 31, lot 131, grave number 4NE, in Dayton (I got that off the web) and I would love to have a copy of his obit and a photo of his gravestone for my records. I'm trying to fill in my mother's history for her (and myself.) The one thing I can remember about G-Uncle Carl were the quarters he used to pull out of our ears when we were kids. It's been almost 15 years since I've been back to Ohio, so I'm hoping a kind person can help me out. thank you! Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
