Carvill joined the Guard in the 80’s out of a sense of patriotism. He was a devoted big brother to Peggy Liguori, who still remembers how as kids, he took her to see Blue Hawaii and Born Free at the movies. He was the longtime pal to Rick Rancitelli who admired Carvills million-dollar vocabulary and his writing and public speaking skills. In 1993. Sgt. Carvill was working in the WTC as a paralegal when it was attacked. He helped a co-worker down 54 floors to safety. In 2001, he was still working at the WTC. He had just left the North Tower moments before the first plane hit.
Sgt. Carvill was killed when his convoy was attacked outside of Baghdad.
We Should Not Only Mourn These Men And Women Who Died,
We Should Also Thank God That Such People Lived
