Not sure what to say?

I graduated with Karl from Memorial High School, 1974. He was always so involved, smart and kind. I enjoyed reading about his amazing life. What a difference he made. My condolences.

I met Karl in 1977 when we both pledged EXCELSIOR Men's Society at Heidelberg College. We continued a friendship for 40 plus years in Columbus, OH and beyond. He was also a great friend and supporter in 1987 when my son was born with Down Syndrome.
Rest in peace Old friend and frat brother.

I babysat for the Poetters....Karl and Anne first, then Tommy and Vivian came along. Annie taught me things I wasn't aware I needed to know until I had my 2nd daughter....Kendra (Down Syndrome). Karl has an amazing resume'....please accept my deepest sympathy for you and your family.
