He was an all around handy man according to his cousin, Tom Wible, when Carl started a job he worked on it non-stop,  day and night until it was finished. 

He is survived by his sisters,  Christine O'Shaughnessy ( James ) and Dorothy Tomzack (Stanley).  Sadly missed by his many nieces and nephews.
