BIOGRAPHY

From Find A Grave

Carl was exceptionally talented with his hands. He had superior skills as a machinist and could make just about anything that he wanted to. His brothers in law would joke after his death when trying to remove a bolt or screw to repair something that Carl had done that they could tell that Carl had been there and meant for it to stay.

He was very active in his church and was Head Usher for the North Rome United Methodist Church for many years. He worked many long hours to repair or replace anything in the church that was necesary to keep the church from having to pay to have it done. That was his mission.

He served as the President of the Men's Club, on the Administrative Board, Board of Trustees, and as Class President of the Clyde Smith Bible Class. For more Sundays than can be remembered he and Otha Youngblood were the two cooks for the monthly Men's Club Breakfast.

He was much loved by family and friends. He adored children and would go out of the way to make them laugh. The children at North Rome UMC missed him deeply after he died. His nieces and nephews by marriage were are dear to him as those by blood relation. His brother and sisters in law were as much kin to him as his natural brothers and sister. He had a special place in his heart for his "baby sister" Ruth and adored his Mother. He was also a true, loving, and devoted Husband and wonderful Father.

He was a gentle spirited man, slow to anger....but when anger came....step aside. It came and went like an explosion and afterward, never held grudges or bad feelings.

He served with the United States Army Medic Corps. of the Occupation Forces in Japan during WW II. His service is memorialized with one of the bricks in the Veterans Plaza at Myrtle Hill Cemetery.

He was the Superintendant of Griffin Foundry and Manufacturing Co. for nearly three decades and at his death was a master machinist at the Rome Machine and Foundry.

His kind heart and gentle nature will always be remembered and cherished.
