My deepest condolences to Karl's family. I went to school Karl from 1st grade at St Agnes through our high school years at Marian. Such an incredibly nice guy. I moved out of state after graduating for Marian and haven't seen Karl since graduation day but did speak to him over the phone once many years ago when talking about some alumni function. I am so sorry to learn of his passing. Prayers to his family.

We will miss Karl: His dry wit, his brilliant tech mind, his German logic, his wonderful friendship. Our hearts are full of sorrow for Therese and her daughters.
