Carl was predeceased by his father, Carl Scherer, mother, Violet Scherer and stepfather, Albert Lorentz. He will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by his wife, Doreen Scherer; son, Martin Scherer (Amie Willoughby), grandchildren, Oliver and Elliot and brother-in-law, William "Bill" McNeil (Gaby) and his family. When Carl's mother remarried, he was welcomed into the Lorentz family, gaining eight step-siblings, all of whom he held dear. Born March 2, 1935, in Kitchener, Ontario, Carl worked for the Bank of Montreal for 39 years, which took him to Montreal and Markham. It was in Montreal that he met his wife of nearly 47 years. He retired at 56 and moved back to Kitchener. Carl spent his days playing with computers, amateur radio and keeping on top of financial news. He was a lifelong learner and storyteller. In 2018, Carl became a grandfather to twin boys, Oliver and Elliot. He enjoyed his visits with them, watching them grow and playing games and reading with them. Special thanks to all the medical staff at Grand River Hospital, for your compassionate care.
