Carl was born in Le Sage, West Virginia on November 28th, 1941 to Walter and Alice Wintz. He grew up on the family farm in Le Sage with his ten brothers and sisters. After high school, he enlisted in the United States Army. During his three consecutive tours of duty, Carl fought for our country in the Vietnam War.
After spending several years in Florida, he finally settled in Houston, Texas where he met and married Terrie Wintz in 1995.
