Carl a very good friend and Pal. I met him on my first day of school. He was in second grade. He introduced himself at our first recress. Start of a great friendship.
We had many of the same hobbies; model railroading, elector sets, fishing, riding bicles. Our parents became good friends and both families.
We sheared our first cigaret pack. Neither of us could smoke even half of one. What a wast of our hard earnt money; we thought. Much later we tried Martini's with the same conclusion. Was much later we found out they were good for us!!
We were both prankesters and love tricks on people and each other.
Things I have to be thankful to Carl for:
1. For great fun all throught grade school and Hight School. I could always count on him.
2. He conveince me stay on and finish H.S. along with my father.
3. He inspired me to do better; he had faith in me.
So untill we meet again.
