“Roedd Carl yn ffrind yn ogystal â chydweithiwr a dwi mewn sioc ac yn drist iawn am ei farwolaeth. Fe wnaeth Carl gyfraniad mawr i fywyd cyhoeddus Cymru a gweithiodd yn ddiflino dros y bobl roedd e’n eu cynrychioli fel Gweinidog ac Aelod Cynulliad.
“Carl was a friend as well as a colleague and I am shocked and deeply saddened by his death. He made a big contribution to Welsh public life and fought tirelessly for those he represented both as a Minister and as a local Assembly Member.
