I always enjoyed visting with Mr. Karl. He was such a nice man. He reminded me of my Grandpa in many ways. I know he will be missed by many. When I mentioned him to my husband I always referred to him as "My Tractor Buddy." I'm sorry that my husband did not get to meet Mr. Karl too. They would have had a lot to talk about when it came to tractors! Our Thoughts and Prayers go out to the family. Ms. Carol, let me know if you need anything. It was an honor to get to know you both.

I've thanked God for my Uncle Karl...and that he was a sweetheart of an Uncle. Specifically I'm grateful for having experienced his loving ways, fun spirit, generosity and joy. I'd posted online that I didn't always get to spend lots of time with him when I was younger, true... but the most important and lasting legacy I think he has is that we saw God in him. Uncle Karl - you finished well. Hugs, love and prayers to all my AR family too, Amanda "Mandy" Smith.

And- to add to my previous note - a special big hug to my Aunc Carol and to Grannie Kinion.
