Carl R. Kruger

Carl R. Kruger, 78, of Manchester, passed away at Catholic Medical Center on October 15, 2024.

He was born in Chicago, IL on March 7, 1946, the son of Emil Paul and Elaine (Bernard) Kruger. He was a United States Army Veteran. Carl was in sales for most of his career. He enjoyed cars and was building his own car. He was also an avid reader. He was an animal lover; he never went to animals as they came to him. They found his loving trust very comforting. This was going to be Carl’s first year voting “ever” in the upcoming election. The family has decided that in lieu of flowers, donate to the Kamala Harris and Tim Walz campaign in his memory. Carl would have appreciated it. 

Family members include his wife of 51 years, Carol (Ursini) Kruger; his daughter, Tyler Kruger of Concord; and his brother Patrick McCauley of CA. 

Per Carl’s wishes, there are no services. Phaneuf Funeral Homes and Crematorium, Manchester, is in charge of arrangements. To view an online tribute, send condolences to the family, or for more information, visit www.phaneuf.net
