You will be missed by all Uncle Carl. I always felt that your home was my home growing up. You walked a special path that few people would ever understand. I am lucky to have known you and your family. I have learned from your life of service that nothing is unseen by God. Rather than putting money first in your life you put God first. We know that you are in a good place. Love from Veronica and the Stoner family.
Carl was a gift from God that is in heaven now with our Lord and Savior. Saying well done my good and faithful servant. God bless you and your family.
I remember Dad's story of Carl. Him pulling up into the yard saying, "DAD DAD Smokey only threw me twice today ". Dad laughed and said I guess that was an improvement from past days. Smokey was only 9 months old and Dad didn't know Carl was breaking him. Those 2 were a joy to watch working cattle.
Then all the conversations with him and Todd. I was the fly on the wall and learned a lot from those 2, between milking cows and sleeping in the same bedroom. They would joke, laugh and all the singing. Once Carl came home from college and Dad told him he liked the song Daisy A Day, by I believe Ged Strunk. Well Carl proceeded to sing it for Dad. So many memories. Carl was always kind and caring ❤️ and will be missed by all.
We're unable to be there because of medical issues. All our love and prayers.
I am so sorry for your loss! I loved Carl very much and visiting with him was something I cherished.
I loved Carl. Such a sweet guy who was always kind and supportive of me. I am sad he left and pray for him.

Dear Georgianne Swearson and Family,
I am deeply saddened to hear about the passing of a truly remarkable brother. My heart goes out to you and everyone who had the privilege of knowing him.
A Guiding Light: He was instrumental in connecting my wife, Brenda, and me to the Unification Church during our journey to Korea in 2011. His unwavering support and encouragement helped us navigate challenges with confidence.
A True Son of God: He embodied the ideals of God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. His spiritual life was an inspiration, demonstrating the love and connection we all strive for.
Cherished Memories: I will always remember how he held our hands during our first experience in Ancestor Liberation and Blessing, guiding us through the process with compassion and care, nor will I forget how he sat with Brenda while I went up the mountain to pray, because she was unable to make the journey.
A Comfort in Grief: When Brenda ascended, he was there for us, spending countless days offering support and instruction, and a resting place. It was a time of profound sorrow.
His legacy will live on in the lives he touched, and I aspire to embody the same kindness, love and support as I navigate my own senior years. He truly was the “Best of us”!
Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.
With heartfelt condolences,
Pastor Meldon Quarells and the Greater Works Family Church

God bless you Carl in the life beyond life. Jim Borer
My heartfelt love to Carl and his family. If ever Heaven's arms would be open for someone, Carl shall have showers of love. There will never be another like him. Man of Dakota rock...hardest and toughest that come. Solid in faith and loves people enough to whoop them back into their saddles and get moving again! ( like me) Thank you Carl. Farm boy of all farmers!!
Carl was truly a man of God and lived his life serving, loving, caring and educating others. Despite his humble North Dakota beginnings, he could embrace those throughout the world . Both my sister Betsy, my husband Tom and I, had the honor of working with him during his time with the American Consitution Committee and the American Freedom Coalition. During that time he devoted himself to educating others about freedom, faith and family values. He was a man of integrity, internal strength and great warmth. He was also a great supporter as a spiritual brother as well after my husband died. In spite of all his responsibilities as a pastor, and leader, husband and father, I will remember most his wonderful " cowboy" sense of humor. Carl will be greatly missed, but I know he will continue his work in Heaven to bring peace and God's love to this world. My deepest condolences to his dear wife Georgianna, children and grandchildren. May God surround you all with love during this challenging time.
With love from Paris, France

Godspeed, Dear Carl, You are a fighter for peace and justice. I always think of you when the rodeo is airing. And around St. Patty's Day when you gave your national Sunday Message. You brought light unto the world with your music, too. God Bless Georgie and the family. HAPPY TRAILS CARL!!!
REVELATION 21:4 "AND HE WILL WIPE OUT EVERY TEAR FROM THEIR EYES, AND DEATH WILL BE NO MORE, NEITHER WILL MOURNING NOR OUTCRY NOR PAIN BE ANYMORE. THE FORMER THINGS HAVE PASSED AWAY."
Carl was and will always be a special man. I have the privilege of knowing him and Georgie and their family. One of his greatest legacies is all of them and his granddaughter and grandson! This family is a light of love that shines and embraces anyone they come in contact with. Dad was a man of strength and wit. I miss the morning texts we exchanged daily. I will thank God always for the blessing of knowing and enjoying this family. Carl will shine through them all especially his beloved Georgie May all the memories and love of Carl in whatever capacity you knew him help everyone through the celebration of his life
