He will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him. My condolences to the entire Carr family, I’m sure he is looking down and smiling upon everybody. I was honored that I got to spend some last time with him before he passed.🙏

Aug-27-2026 | Buffalo, NY | FriendSo sorry to hear of Charlie's passing. He was a great person and a great boss. I worked for him a few years with OxyChem and then, once he retired, I always looked forward to his annual trips to Louisiana. He was always positive and was just a great guy to be around. He will be missed but I'm sure he has his special place in heaven.
