NACM is saddened to share that Carl L. Garner, former President/CEO of San Diego Credit Association (NACM San Diego), has passed away at the age of 85. Carl led the affiliate from 1972 through his retirement in 2001 enjoying great success including his practice of administering General Assignments for the Benefit of Creditors and directing business reorganizations. Under his guidance, San Diego Credit Association expanded its NACM areas of responsibility into New Mexico and Colorado. Carl and his wife Dollie have lived in San Diego, California since their move from Cleveland, Ohio in 1968. The loving couple were high school sweethearts and enjoyed an incredible marriage for 61 years. Those who knew Carl and Dollie surely know their love to travel, especially cruising the high seas and living the “island life” in the Hawaiian Islands. Carl is survived by his wife Dollie Garner, his son Greg Garner (wife Jan), daughter Lisa Mallory (husband Pete) and grandsons Ryan and Michael Mallory.
