Karl Otte

Karl and I were high school classmates at South High School. It was always a pleasure talking to him and catching up on each others' lives at our class reunions. He will be missed.
Prayers to the family.

Karl was a gentle soul with the biggest smile that came straight from his heart. I loved spending time with him and his family. My son TJ and him were very close, it takes a special person to take time out of there busy life to spend time with special needs kids, Karl only asked if he could take him for a ride or go to a game and even more important , he was TJ's prayer partner. I will miss him deeply as my friend. Prayers to you Marylyn and keep smiling as did Karl knowing he is still alive...

Karl was/ is a great friend. We had a lot of adventures together; Some involved cars, power tools motors , water and occasionaly alcohol. Fortunately no one was ever injured or arrested!! Whenever we went somewhere, Karl would always call Marilyn and let her know what was going on. And hw always ended the phone call by saying "I love you'. Life lesson learned. Thank you Karl!

Sorry about your loss. You will be missed! Karl was a good friend to me as well as an awesome prayer partner! I remember when going to football games and him tucking me in when we got home late and he would say prayers with me.

Char,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Dear Marilyn and Family,
Dear Charlene and Family,
Dear David and Family,

I am very, very sorry to learn of Karl's death. Jan and I send our deepest sympathy. Karl was my first and therefore longest friend. Our families were next door neighbors when we were born, Karl 12 days after me. We were neighbors for 10 years and grew up together. Even after we moved, Karl and I went to the same Junior High and High Schools. We had fun together and got into trouble together. In those...

I remember the first time I met Karl at work, he was a funny man, always willing to help fix the problem When I told Karl about a problem my Daughter was having with her car not only did he tell my what was wrong, the next day he showed up at my home to help fix it. He will be sadly missed.

Karl was a wonderful co-worker and friend. I loved his stories about being on the water. He will be greatly missed here by the Steelcase Athens family. My family will be praying for yours.
