He met his wife, Deborah in 1986, married in 1992, and they moved from New Jersey to Maryland in 1994. Carl was employed as a sales associate for Sparkle Pools Inc. at their Chestertown store location for the last seven years; a job which he really enjoyed.

In the years prior, he had a variety of jobs, ranging from working as a residential chimney sweep and air duct cleaner and for several years prior to that he was assistant manager for a large Marine Supply store in Glasgow, DE. He was an avid boater and grew up enjoying cruising, fishing, and crabbing the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries with his parents. Carl’s own family now shares in this joy.

He enjoyed vacationing annually with family in Wildwood Crest on the Jersey Shore in the summer and taking trips to Disney World with his girls. Carl was also well-known for enjoying the bringing in of the Christmas season and went all out every year decorating the inside and outside of his home, including setting up a large Christmas village complete with a running train. He was a member of the Chestertown Elks Lodge #2474. Carl loved talking with people and was always genuinely concerned about them and their well-being.
