In his early years, Karl was an accomplished athlete in baseball, hockey, swimming and diving.  Later in life his interests varied and included sailing, running, and cycling.  In retirement Karl became a gifted woodworker and was often found in his shop creating keepsakes for his children and grandchildren.  These pieces of fine furniture will be treasured as a reminder for all.
 

The family would like to extend thanks and gratitude to the personal support workers, and nurses of the Victoria Order of Nurses whom made his final days peaceful.
 

In lieu of flowers, a memorial donation to the Canadian Cancer Society and Victoria Order of Nurses would be appreciated.
