Carlos Lynn Guettner, age 78, of Powell, Tennessee went home on Thursday, April 4, 2024, to be with his Lord and Savior and also his wife of 51 years, Gloria Ellen Donica Guettner.

He played guitar with the National Road Trio for many years and enjoyed ministering through music in numerous nursing homes and churches. He was an avid sports fan with a wealth of knowledge of sports and a huge fan of Indiana basketball, but after moving back to Tennessee he became a huge Tennessee fan as well. He had a huge sense of humor and always had a smile on his face. With a very outgoing personality he never met a stranger. Next to God, his life revolved around his family. His children and grandchildren were his world. He always enjoyed spending as much time as possible with them and was always their biggest fan. Carlos was an amazing father and father figure to so many through the years. He will be deeply missed by everyone whose life he touched.
