    To the McGrew Family, It is an honor and a privilege to have known "KILLER" Carl McGrew. Killer was the kindest gentleman I've ever known. He had a heart of gold. The world is a much better better place because of Carl living in it. Please Accept my Heartfelt Sympathy for your loss. My prayers and thoughts will be with you during this time. I will miss you Killer, my old Ireland Buddy. Sincerely; Patrick F. Murphy
