Originally from Potosi, WI. Passed away peacefully at home on August 31st,he was 57.
He is survived by his loving wife and best friend Mel (Melissa) nee Klockow. Sister Bonnie (Paul) Klein, Brothers Dwight (Beth) Kuster, Kevin (Candy) Kuster, Wade (Michelle) Kuster. In-laws Kenneth and Susan Klockow. Also many nephews, neices, other family and friends.
Karl will be deeply missed, remembered for his kindness and generosity. He never backed down from a dare, especially if it involved cars or trucks. He grew up a farmer and never lost his love for it. He was a jack of all trades, would help anyone out no matter the time of day or night. He had a knack of finding items that people were looking for no matter how odd the request was. He had a Love of storms and tornados. You would often find him watching and monitoring storms from all over. Karl and his wife would spend many Saturdays driving around listening to polka music and finding unique thrift stores.
The family would like to thank Aurora at Home Hospice and Aurora St. Lukes South Shore Vince Lombardi cancer center for their wonderful care and support.
In lieu of flowers. Donations to the family would be appreciated. To plant a beautiful memorial tree in memory of Karl, please visit our Tree Store.
