What can you say about a man that has touched so many in so many ways. Whether is was cheering us on during: Basketball, Football, cross-country, track, baseball or softball games; being the biggest Packer fan ever, you know your a die-hard when you paint your truck Green and Gold. 🙂 His love for the outdoors, and his LOVE for his family and friends. He was the type of man that made friends, not enemies and would help anyone in need.
His genuine smile and laughter will be greatly missed. My sympathy to the Peterson family, my heart goes out to you all for your loss.
Love

I know no other man with a larger and kinder heart than Carl!
I have been asked to thank you for your kind words and memories of Carl. I know he would appreciate everything you are sharing and your loving thoughts and gestures.
In keeping with Carl’s’ love of nature and gardening, the family requests that only potted plants be offered rather than bouquets of cut flowers.
In Carl’s memory, a special garden will be created with all the flowers and plants received. We will miss Carl with all our hearts, but will be grateful to have a beautiful place to visit and reflect.

I worked, hunted, fished and watched Packer games with Carl for many years. He was a good friend and an all around great guy. He was the Packers best fan ever. The only people he loved more than the Packers was his children and his grandchildren. He talked about them all the time. The fish and the deer won’t miss you but the Pack and I will. So long Carl.
