Karl & Family,
I am sadden to hear of the sudden passing of Carol. My memories of growing up with you and your family came rushing back to me when I heard the news, from the holidays on Sandy Hook, setting Premium Quakers (the duck) free at your lake to the times that we spent together going to Northern Minnesota with the crew and all of the other times in between; memories I will never forget and Carol will forever be in my thoughts. God bless you and your family.

Dear Keller Family,
I am so sorry to hear of your wife and mother's passing. Your family has always been an important part of our family. Since your dad was best man at my mom & dad's wedding. Fall breaks at BWCA with the crew and their kids, learning to water ski on your lake and so much more. Your mother was a wonderful lady and I know will be greatly missed by all of us who knew her. May she rest in peace knowing all that loved her.
Sincerely,
Karen Torgerson Brankin

Karl and family;
I was shocked and sad to hear of Carol's death. You and your family are special to Margie and me. Carol was a special friend, who I always knew I could talk to either in person or phone and be able to pickup right where we left off, maybe a year before.
We will always cherish living next door to you'll in Mission and the many visits after.
Take care;
Charles and Margie

The one day that I will never forget
is Carol's and Karl's wedding day.
Karl and I went water skiing at
Turtle lake and Karl washed and waxed his car, making sure it was spotless. It was a great wedding.

Donn and Mary Olson are deeply saddened by your loss, Karl. We love you.
My relationship with Carol was a deep, special and unique one. All of the important stepping stones of our lives growing up were spent together. Such as confirmation at Bethel Lutheran Church; 8th grade graduation at Como Park elementary school; and our first Job's Daughter's formal. While walking, talking, and biking up and down Wheelock Parkway we solved a lot of our concerns of the day. There we figured a way to attend Murray High School and thanks to Carol Dunahey my folks also used her idea and consequently it made a big impact on the Vik family household for years to come. I can't thank Carol enough for being a kindred spirit of mine, a life long friend. I will alway cherish and love her and will miss her. Goodbye Carol. Mary Vik Olson
