Carl was a Vietnam Veteran and retired from the US Air Force as a MSGT in 1979. He was an entrepreneur and owned businesses in South Dakota as well as Tennessee. Carl loved fishing, and cooking. He especially loved sitting in his rocking chair and waving to good friends Patti and George.

Carl is survived by one son, Michael Richardson of Rapid City, SD. Three daughters Diana (Dan Papka) Hogan of Spearfish, SD, Arlene (Barry) Krecow of Traverse City, MI and Heidi (Brandt) Williams of Sioux Falls, SD.
Carl was known as "Opa" to his 4 grandchildren; Shay Hogan, Hunter and Carson Krecow and Judd Williams. They will remember him as a practical joker and a man who loved them very much.
