He is also survived by his 4 step-children, Kevin Garnica (Kathleen), Jeffrey Garnica, Gregory Garnica (Tanya), Michelle Decker (Chris) and 10 step-grandchildren.
Carl was a true and honorable friend to everyone that knew him, in fact most friends called him "Brother"! He loved his Florida "Riverside Neighborhood Family", riding his Harley Davidson motorcycle in the sunshine and traveling the open road. His life was filled with laughter, love, music, great friends and good cigars.
