Carl was a very caring person who loved life.
He was a Husband to Maria who he loved very much and a caring Brother and Uncle.
He was the longest living Heart Transplant patient who achieved so much in his life, he ran for Great Britian in the British Heart Foundation Games where he became the Gold Medalist in his events he travelled the world with the team and made some lovely friends along the way who he stayed in contact with.
He also trained young Athletes and pushed them to their limits and was always giving them advice and he was a true inspiration he changed so many young athletes lives and we heard some wonderful stories at his funeral from the young athletes he used to train.
Carl loved cars and Kung Fu films he would always be watching Martial Art films.
Carl always wanted a Mercedez he would tell me about his dream that he had driving past me in his car and i was washing my car outside my mums house, well Carl i hope you have got the car of your dreams now.
The one thing i can say about Carl is he faught until the end he never gave up and that was Carl even if the doctors said he couldn't do something he would prove them wrong and that is what i love and miss about him.
I have set this page up so people can light a candle for Carl and write messages and stories about him as although he is not here in person he is around us all in spirit looking down on us.
God bless you Carl, i miss you very much and not a day goes past when i dont think of you and wish you were still here.

My wings are spread, my pain is gone-Do grieve for me-but not for long.
For wondrous peace surrounds my flight-I’m gliding towards that ray of light.
So grieve for me but not for long-Remember blessings not the wrong.
My life was full and so complete-Although the end was bittersweet.
You brightened up my everyday…By things you’d do, by things you’d say.
I’ll miss my life with you on Earth, but know you gave my life it’s worth.
I’m gliding towards a perfect place-No pain or sorrow, only grace.
My wings are spread, I’m soaring strong…Do grieve for me, but not for long.
love theresa xxx
a year already
My Dearest Uncle,
I cant believe you have been gone a year, it seems like it was only yesterday that I was with you and you were telling me jokes.
The day I got the call to say that you had left us and gone to meet mumma and grandad was they day my heart fell to pieces.
We miss you more and more everyday.
Always in our hearts

A rose once grew
where all could see,
sheltered beside
a garden wall,
And as the days passed
swiftly by,
it spread its branches, straight and tall...
One day, a beam of light
shone through
a crevice that had
opened wide ~
The rose bent gently
toward its warmth
then passed beyond
to the other side
Now, you who deeply
feel its loss,
be comforted ~ the rose blooms there ~
its beauty even greater now,
nurtured by
God's own loving care.
A Letter from Heaven
To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, 'I welcome you
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......'My day was not in vain.'
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
