"Carl is the love of my life. He is not like anyone I've ever known. He is a wonderful husband, father, son and friend. He has brought joy through his music and through the example he sets as a good man.

"As I read the notes and messages, I realize that he has touched the lives of many and that others see what I know about Carl.
