Dad, as we called him in our golfing outtings, will be missed by all of us. I'd like to think that he's checking his tee times upstairs, trying to see who's he playing with. He'll always have a place on the fairway with us. God bless him and his entire family. - Posted by: William Porter (Golfing Buddy) on: Mar 12, 2012

Val and I were truly surprised to hear of Carsten's sudden passing. He and Olga have been great neighbours to my Mom for over 50 years and were very supportive of her. When we visited, he was there with a smile and a cheery hello. Our sincere condolences to Olga and family.. - Posted by: Val and Lindsay Ramsay (neighbours) on: Mar 04, 2012

We are saddened to hear the passing of my Uncle Carsten. I remember our summer visits my family made when I was quite young and how he made us feel welcome with his smile and playful ways. The memories I have will be cherished. - Posted by: Gail, Joe, James and Aaron Buonamici (Uncle to Gail) on: Mar 03, 2012
