Life is full of wishes and regrets, I definitely regret not taking time to visit with Karl more and I wish there was a way to change that. But reality sets in suddenly and before we know it, time has taken it all away. However, I will remember those times that we did spend together...I'm richer for them. I'm going to miss my old friend and his crazy and wonderful sense of humor. Rest in Peace Airborne, I'll see you again at Heavens Drop Zone. AATW and Strike Hold
Dear Denise this is Mike's uncle Rick. I know you didn't know our family very well, but over the years of seeing you guys at Mike's family get togethers we've grown to consider you guys as family! We have all grown to love karl ❤️! He was always the life of the party, I loved all the conversations we used to have!! He will be greatly missed 😔! It's with much sadness we offer our condolences!!! On a brighter note I'm sure he'll have them roaring in heaven 🤣😇🕊️.
What a great man that truly LOVED his family! The last time we spoke he said ’I don’t care about me, but who’s going to take care of my family.’
Every time I hear the song by Judas Priest - some heads are gonna roll, I will always remember the FUN times we shared at work.
My deepest condolences to the Family!
Always,
John R. Gaskins
