Mr.Carl as we affectionately called him will long be missed.I was particulatly blessed to have known him.I offer condolences to the family.
My thoughts and prayers go out to the family for your loss. Mr. Gravely was a client, freind and mentor! For all the good works he did at Clairmont Baoptist church with the sunday school and choirs, adult , childerns & youth! A Christmas does not go by when I do not think of the hay rides he would do for childern & junior choirs christmas parties. Faron
“Faith in God gives meaning and purpose to human life”…I think both Carl and Geneva Gravely exemplified this to anyone who knew them. I first met them through Clairmont Baptist Church many years ago and always thought they raised a wonderful family. I hope your memories of them will sustain the family through this time.
Mr. Carl was the first neighbor to welcome us to the neighborhood when we moved in next door almost 4yrs ago. He always had a kind word. I will miss our mailbox chats.
To the family of Mr. Gravely: I wanted to offer my sincere condolences for the loss of your loved one. Even though the human condition at present must endure such losses the Holy Scriptures provides real comfort and a secure hope of the reversal of the effects of passing. Please, capture the time to read in a copy of the Bible the encouraging experience that Jesus performed for some dearly loved friends back in his day. JOHN 11:5 to 45 is were you shall locate this wonderful act of the son of Almighty God. God’s son shall do the same for our loved ones and countless others in the near future. Take care, and may your family experience solace in this time of loss. Much affection and fellow feeling to you all.
Sorry for your loss Martin & Shirley & family. He was a good man and we thought a lot of him.He will surely be missed.Our love and prayers to all.
I fondly remember the many hours we shared at Southern Bell, especially the time we spent drinking coffee and discussing everything under the sun, and hearing stories of his growing up in WV.
It was a privilege to know Carl all these years and to be able to pray for him in his last days. Our prayers continue for the entire family.
You reilly be missed. I reamber you when I was a small kid in Dacula. May god be with ur famley and loved ones.
