Karl Jacobs

I was related to Karl via. his wife Francis, who was my aunt. I enjoyed visiting the Jacobs in the 40`s and 50`s. I was always impressed with Karl`s intense interest in whatever topic intrigued him at the time. Those interests ranged from fly fishing (he had a huge collection of fishing gear) to gliders, to Volkswagon autos, to photography, etc., etc. I remember him teaching me how to throw a baseball in Fowler. I remember being amazed that the 4 boys would finish off one gallon of milk...

My mother worked for the Jacob's when I was a very small girl. I am sorry to hear of your loss. Karl and Frances will always be remembered to me as kind people.

Karl was a big part of my childhood,he was such a kind and wonderful man.He gave me framed photographs of the Beautiful Roses he grew ,helped me with my multiplcation by recording his voice all the way through to 10x10=100.He always was happy to see me when I came into the office after Girl scouts and waited for my mom(Faye) to get off work,he really made me feel special.God Bless you Karl Jacobs,you will be dearly missed.

Karen,Mike,Kent and extended family: I went to work for Karl in 1954 and worked until 1973, with a few interruptions when Tim, Tammy and D.J. were born. Frances cared for Steve while I worked until Tim was born. Both Karl and Frances were so good to me and our family. We stayed in touch by telephone until Karl's hearing deteriorated to the point he was unable to hear. (I have to admit this is the first time I have used his first name in referring to him. Out of respect to him I always called...

Growing up in Fowler, everyone knew Karl Jacobs. Sorry for your loss.

To the Jacobs family my thoughts and prayers. I remember growing up that he was always a kind and caring person.
