My first memories of Uncle were of him coming to visit us in Illinois. I always remember the smell of his vanilla pipe. Always there for me when I needed advice. We had a great memorial for you. Keith, Kevin, Tony and I came to Florida to scatter your ashes. It was beautiful and the boys all got along so well. Had a great time with Brenda and your dog Charlie. Love ya Uncle.
Brenda,
I just don’t know where to start.
The trip we took to Monterey was a blast. The grin on Karl’s face while we were playing golf at Spyglass, Spanish Bay, and of course the course Pebble beach was just wonderful and the lone bagpiper walking the grounds around Spanish Bay Lodge in the evenings. What can I say?
Going to Denver to see” Always Patsy Cline” and the laugh he got when we were almost run over by a truck load of porta-potties.
Standing in your yard in Loveland and looking at the comet early one evening and kidding about calling him at 2:00 in the morning to go comet watching.
Or going to the sculpture show in Loveland where you guys bought the “KIM” sculpture that sat in the round window in your house there.
We have great memories of our time with Karl and you. We know you will miss him.
You are in our thoughts and prayers every day.
Robin & Donna
My dearest Karl, I have such a void in my life right now, but I also celebrate the fact that you received Jesus 2 days before you departed this world and into your eternal home with the Lord. I loved you, cared for you, prayed for you and even sang to you as I sat at your bedside. Now the void is almost more than I can bear. Charlie loved you and was such a comfort to you and now he is comforting me. You would be happy the boys are coming to help scatter your remains in the ocean just as you wanted done, even Valerie plans to come. I did decide to have a memorial service at my church. Knowing you I felt you would be ok this decision since you accepted Jesus. It will be healing for me.. You were a wonderful husband, partner, lover, friend, father, grandfather and great grandfather. I am sorry we didn't get to spend more time with Jaxon but your health limited you from so many things you loved. I know your are golfing if there is a course there and you have met up with so many friends and family. I too one day will join you on the other side and spend eternity with you and family and friends. I will miss you calling me "sweetpea". Karl, you took such good care of me and loved me so much. I don't know how God is going to use your death and John's death for good but it is a promise He makes in the Bible and I believe it. Charlie and I will continue to watch NCIS on Tues nights, just as we always did. No more suffering for you and you now can breath just as normal as can be. I will not say goodbye but see you one day in heaven for all of eternity. What a glorious day that will be!!
Love and miss you,
Brenda and Charlie too.
Dear Brenda,
I am so sorry to hear that Karl is passing.
The little photo shows me the Karl I remember when you visit us
in Holland in 1992.
We went to Germany, Solingen where Elsie is born.
He was very happy and proud to be there.
His warm welcome into your house and our time together I always will remember.
Our thoughts are with you in these sad days.
I hope some of your family takes care of you.
With love,
Corrie.
Paul and Jeffrey.
Brenda, We were so sorry to hear about Karl. I know he fought a hard battle and you were right there the whole time. He was a wonderful person and now he is in God's hands and isn't suffering anymore. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you. Jim and Judy Durant
