--------------------------------
Carlo was a Supervisor at Pratt & Whitney for 27 years, then he retired. He moved to the shore line & lived with his girlfriend for about 8 months, she then passed away with throat cancer. Carl & I rebuilt old Victorian houses for a while , Carl did landscaping & interior decorating & many odd jobs. Then he moved to the beach & became a caretaker for this house where he lived. Carl was well known on the shore line, where he had many friends. Carl took sick in March & didn't tell anyone, not even my mother or me. He didn't want us to worry because we lost my other brother 5 years ago. Carl wanted to come to the next reunion & see his classmates. Carl died suddenly at his home. He will be missed. He was very happy with his life.
Sincerely, Anna DiBernardi
