He was a dynamic and wonderful human being who planted seeds wherever he worked and they grew and flourished, be it projects or the work of others - many of Liverpool's youth workers owe a lot to Carl and his vision on working with young people- I for one am one of them. He was a fantastic mentor and a truly great friend...I will miss him so. \My thoughts are with his wife and children. R.I.P Mr Spearechristine quarlessnoreply@blogger.com
