Carl was a loving husband, father, grandfather, brother, son and dear friend to many. Carl was an avid hunter. He worked many years as a Tech 4 with Wildlife and Fisheries. Anyone who knew Carl knew he had a strong personality with no filter, he was also loving and caring, enjoyed camping, and giving his family a hard time.  Above all, he loved his family and friends dearly and spending time with them especially his favorite "t-rex". Carl left this world too soon but leaves a beautiful legacy behind. He has been reunited with his baby boy and they now rest together in the arms of their Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.  

The family would like to thank Ochsner-Kenner and staff for their love and support shown to the family.
