Karl always had the best smile and conversation waiting for you. He was a long time plumber/pipe fitter and farmer, working all over the province. Karl was a hard worker and loved to see the finished result from his actions. Karl always had to be busy working on some project or getting some chore done. He never sat still; he was the teacher of the perfectly piled wood pile and was a wealth of knowledge with the best stories, that he loved to tell his grandkids. His pride and joy was his wife, his family, his farm and their German Shepherds. He adored his family and would do anything for them. He will be forever missed.

 Cremation has taken place.

A private family service will take place at a later date.

In lieu of flowers and expressions of sympathy donations to the Heart & Stroke Foundation would be appreciated.
