    It is with our heavy hearts that we send our condolences to JoEllen and Susan and the respective family members. My husband Fred and I had a long and wonderful friendship with Karl for close to fifty years. He was a dear and caring friend to us. May he be at peace with his true love Joanne. We are just two out of many who loved him and all who knew Karl are truly fortunate to have had him in our lives. He will be immensely missed. With our deepest caring.....
