Born in Butler, Pennsylvania, Carl, as a young boy enjoyed car races; especially on Friday nights when his father, “Bunny,” would race at the Palm Beach Fairgrounds in car 51.

It was in Georgia that Carl met the love of his life; Geitra “Gidge” and they had been married for 53 years. Once honorably discharged, he moved back to Palm Beach County where he was employed with the Palm Beach County Engineer’s Office for 39 years. Carl enjoyed fishing, Nascar, and stock car racing as well as spending time with his family and friends. He leaves behind his loving wife Geitra, brother Don Miller; brother and sister-In-law, Fred and Linda Weaver; three sisters, Heather Bauer, Cindy McCoy (Doug), Marla Smith (Tom), cousins, nieces and nephews plus so many friends. In lieu of flowers, the family has asked that contributions be made to St. John Lutheran Church – 241 Cypress Dr, Lake Park, FL. 33403.
