Johnnie and family, I grieve for you in the death of Carl. He was such a great Christian who loved the Lord and served Him well. L.L. Collins and I had some great times together with him, members of Ironton Baptist Church, and your family. Love you, praying for God's comfort as you continue mourning with his death. I wish that I could be there to share my comfort. We will be with him again when the Lord calls us home.
