Honoring Carl Phillip Marder-Grant – A Life Taken Too Soon
With heavy hearts, we share the devastating loss of my beloved husband, Carl, who was tragically taken from us due to gun violence. At just 31 years old, he had so much life ahead of him and so much love to give. He was a father to his 8-year-old daughter, who adored him beyond words. His mother, Bernadine Jenson loved him deeply.
Carl had a passion for music and found peace in fishing—simple joys that brought light to his days and those around him. He had a warm, kind soul that left a lasting impression on everyone he met.
This unexpected tragedy has left our family heartbroken and facing overwhelming emotional and financial challenges. We are asking for support to help cover funeral expenses and to provide stability for our family during this incredibly difficult time.
Anything you can contribute, no matter how small, is deeply appreciated. If you’re unable to give, we ask that you please share this with others and keep our family in your prayers.
Thank you for your love, kindness, and support.
