Sad news from Marti...
Carl died suddenly on August 18. The following is his biography sent by Marti. Our condolences to you and your family, Marti.
Carleton
Marchant Hause, Jr.
Carleton
Marchant Hause, Jr. was born November 25, 1939 in Detroit, Michigan
to Carleton Sr. and Jeanne Brunner Hause.
Having
grown up on the shore of Lake Erie with his parents and sister,
Marjorie, Carl had an adventurous spirit and enjoyed boating and
fishing. He graduated from Eastern Michigan University with a degree
in Education.
While
attending college, Carl met his future bride, Martha Ellen Wenk, and
after five brief months of dating, they were married on June 13,
1959.
In
July of 1961, along with their newborn son Jeffrey, they followed his
parents and sister out to San Diego, California where Carl began his
teaching career. He continued in the line of educators that started
with his great- great- grandmother when he began teaching math at
Washington Junior High School in Vista, California. While at
Washington, Carl began his legendary coaching career in both track
and football. In his first nine years of coaching track, Coach Hause
compiled a 63-1 dual meet record.
In
1965, Carl and Marti added to their family by adopting Kathy. Two
years later they adopted Eric and then moved to their current home
where they would spend the rest of their lives together. In 1968,
with the birth of Michele, their family was complete.
In
1980, Carl began coaching at Vista High School and in 1984 he was
named the head track coach. In addition, Carl also coached JV
football and cross-country. In 1987, he left coaching track after 16
years with an overall win-loss record of 105-5 to take the position
of Athletic Director at Vista High. He served as Athletic Director
until 1997 when he retired after over 40 years of teaching in the
district.
In
retirement Carl was as busy as ever, being able to devote more time
to his fantasy sports leagues, his love of growing rare fruit,
gardening, and reading James Lee Burke and Robert B. Parker novels.
He
was
also an avid game player, loved to research genealogy, and enjoyed
morning walks on the beach.
Carl’s
retirement also afforded him time to more deeply pursue his faith
journey and love for the Lord. The primary way he lived out his faith
was through his membership at King of King’s Lutheran Church. There
he served as a church council member, financial secretary, Sun-day
School teacher, Men’s Prayer Breakfast leader, and Intern
Commit-tee Chairman.
During
his teaching career, Carl was involved with Sunrise Kiwanis, and in
retirement was heavily involved with the Vista Golden K Kiwanis, and
their scholarship foundation, where he continued to show his care and
concern for students. He also volunteered at Meals with Love.
Carl
was very proud of his grandchildren and loved to visit them in New
York, Stockton, Napa, Denver and enjoyed being involved in all their
activities. Carl loved teaching and coaching as it gave him the
op-portunity to impact the lives of students and athletes. He was
known for his great sense of humor and it gave him a unique ability
to break down walls and bring people together in classroom and life
situations. Carl was a great man loved by so many.
He
is survived by his wife Marti, his sister Margy, son Jeff and his
wife Lori Ann, daughter Kathy and her husband Hal Larsen, son Eric
and his wife Mary, daughter Michele and her husband John Houston, and
eight grandchildren: Sasha Larsen, Dylan Larsen, Camille Larsen,
Madeline Hause, Atticus Hause, Phin Lee Hause, and Sara and Avery
Houston. They and scores of students, athletes, and congregation
members will miss him dearly.
In
lieu of flowers, the family asks that you would donate to Vista
Golden K-Kiwanis Foundation, which is a fund for student
scholarships, at 14212 Pebble Beach Way, Valley Center, CA 92082 or
the King of Kings Lutheran Church Memorial Fund.
