Karl was such a great guy. He never failed to make us laugh. He was always glad to help you out during a case with Dr. Loop, Cosgrove and others. He brightened the room and tensions faded.
So glad to have met his great wife, Jill, who as a wife like mine helped make us so much better than we would have been without you.
Glad that our paths crossed in life, but for too short a time. I still remember the good times and will never forget you.

Jill, I sat with you Karl, Mark and Sue at the reunion. Karl was in my home room through high school. We met in 7th grade, and our dads were on the city council together. Karl was such fun and made a room light up by being there. I remember he always thought Barb and Jane got away with everything and he had to do the dirty work, being the oldest boy, but they always told him what to do. Please know you, your daughters and the whole family are in my thoughts and prayers.

So very sorry Jill and family to hear of Karl's passing. He always had a friendly smile and kind words every time we met him. Memories of WCHA bowling league where he was such fun. He will be missed. May God bless you and your family as you navigate life without him. Bob and Bonnie Hollingsworth

Karl was a very thoughtful person who always had kind words about everyone. I never knew that he was a nurse until now and I am sure he was a great one from what it sounds like from other classmates. Karl you will be truly missed. Nancy Kerchner Herl

I grew up 4 houses from Karl across the street from Levina, around the corner from Tom Jones and the other corner from Snip Snider. I spent hours in their apple tree, ate a lot of pears in their pear tree and threw many a walnut over their neighbor's garage. Many a night on the floor watching TV and if I remember correctly, I may have had a hand in knocking over their magnificent Christmas tree one year. I remember us jumping the fires when all of 4th Street burned their leaves at the curb on the same Saturday night. There were countless baseball and football games in the big yard and hide and seek in the dark with only the street lights to find each other. I'm sure we were like all kids with great childhood memories. When we wanted to each other we would stand in the back yard at the back door and call in a sing-song manner; "Hey, Kar-eellllll! Hey, Jimm-yyyyy! Hey, Patt-yyyyy! At my house it would be Hey, Mark-yyyyy! Hey, Ned-yyyyy!
Karl, Doug and I went all through school together and played Junior High, Freshman and Varsity football together. Karl and I watched the Browns win the 1964 NFL Championship at Jane's apartment and, that was most likely, our first drunk. Jane was very nervous about us making our way to our homes and consequently, had her husband throw us both in a cold shower before she let us go home.
I came home on Leave and I remember Karl lived in an upstairs apartment on Third Street and he told me about Jill and that she was a nurse. They were in love and he was going to go to nursing school. A male nurse was a new concept at the time. I spent 21 years in the Air Force and when I came home because my father had an illness that required him to go to the Cleveland Clinic, Karl was there for us! He and Jill even put us up when they lived in Rocky River. Later when my dad needed heart by-pass surgery, Karl made arrangement for the best surgeon! When Rita was in the Clinic Karl visited often before he went home after another long day of surgery. Karl was a truly good man. More jokes that Bob Hope. Loving husband and great father who was extremely proud of JC and Jennifer.
He was a good friend!
Hey, Kar-ellll!

in honor of Karl.

I grew up across the street from Karl & we were in the same class in school. Karl,Doug LaVeck,& Mark Faust were the terrible trio all through school. I wish I knew where the pictures were from when we were kids. There are some eating ice cream on our front step & playing cowboys & Indians with my old Army saddle on a sawhorse. He was one of the nice kids that didn't pick on me in school. We became Facebook friends last year. In fact he was one of the people who convinced me to go to our class reunion. I'm glad that I went. I'll miss him. That sounds odd for someone I'd seen once in 50 years & only connected with on Facebook,but it's true. Every time you lose a childhood friend,you lose a piece of your childhood. My great sympathies go out to his family.
