An unforgettable memory I have of Karl is watching him cut his lawn with a long sleeved gardeners outfit on. He would carefully and meticulously trim his entire property without seemingly breaking a sweat and declining my offers to help. I would be across the street having all sorts of difficulties with a riding mower in the heat. Not Karl however, he was cool as a cucumber. Oh and I left out the fact that he only used a HAND MOWER. Truly this gentleman was one of a kind. An ambassador of kindness and compassion and a neighbor I will never forget. God Speed my friend, rest well.
Sincerely,

I worked with, or for, Karl for many years at the Department of Commerce. He was a true mentor in the full sense of the world and taught me so much. I admired him for his intellect, common sense, and loyalty. He was thoughtful and kind, and he had a wonderful wit. He was affectionate and caring in word and deed. He was honorable and ever so decent. I cherish the memories I have of him at work and at the occasional social events we attended where he, Martha (when she was able to join us!), and I giggled a lot! I am so thankful for those beautiful memories, and I am forever grateful for them.
Rest in peace, my dear friend.
