This is very sad news indeed.
I see that the news is spreading throughout the model railroad communities, and the reaction seems to be the same everywhere - the feeling that Carl is "the Giant of the Small Layout" as someone formulated it over in the Yahoo Group "Micro/Small layouts".
I would like to express my gratitude to Carl for the many hours of hobby enjoyment and enlightenment he has given his fellow model railroaders both near and far away - I have for a long time had it as part of my daily routine around the start and middle of every month to stop by the carendt.com web site to see what new ideas had been posted for that month or mid-month update.
My deepest sympathy for Carl's wife, other family and friends.
