Carl was preceded in death by his parents; two sisters, Ann Kuchan and Marian Schaber; and one grandson, Robin Fletcher.
Carl was a graduate of Ilasco High School, where he excelled on the basketball team, even being offered a college scholarship for his talents on the court.
After high school Carl served his country proudly in the United States Army.
Carl began his professional career at Crane and Flemming in Hannibal, where he was a construction manager. He later was elected to the office of Marion County Assessor, a position he held for many years until his retirement.
Away from work Carl could be found on the golf course. He enjoyed playing any opportunity he could. Carl was a longtime member of the Hannibal Country Club and later Norwoods Golf Club. As a youngster Carl dreamed of being a sportswriter for the newspaper, later in life Carl never missed the opportunity to read the local papers for this reason. A sports fan, Carl loved to watch any sport with the exception of baseball that he said was too slow. He loved to watch the Notre Dame Fighting Irish Football Team along with college basketball and hockey. Occasional visits to the casino to play the slots, trips to Biloxi, Mississippi and his martini at 4:30 PM each day were a few of Carl's favorites. Most will remember Carl's friendly spirit. He never met a stranger and could often be found enjoying a good conversation with others. Carl cherished his family and friends and always looked forward to the moments they shared.
Carl was a member of Holy Family Catholic Church.
