Note	Dolores BALL (Carr) wrote on the death of her father in 1999: "He was a gentleman and he was a gentle man. I've always wondered how he could possibly have fought in the war, but he did it because it was right. He didn't care about image or status. He respected everyone as a person. The less fortunate got no less respect, and like it or not, people who enjoyed a high position received no edge from My Dad. People were people - period. He expected one thing from everyone - honesty. His sense of integrity was the only thing that surpassed his sense of humor. He was honest at any cost and he expected no less from everyone."
