As strange as it may initially seem, we chose to discreetly video-tape the Memorial Service on May 2, 2009. And we're glad we did, for now we can share it with a larger audience, including those unable to attend.

One of Carl's long-time requests was that this piece be played at his memorial service.
We, of course, honored that request. Unfortunately, the video-tape ran out before the end of the service, so you can't see this part, or the Benediction. We hope to have at least an audio version of both available here shortly.
