Karl earned a bachelor's degree in marketing and a bachelor's degree in mathematic­s from Franklin Pierce College. He held several accounting, auditing and financial analysts positions in his first career. He returned to the University of Maine Farmington at age

41 and earned his cherished teaching degree. He then taught high school mathematic­s in Maine and Texas for many years and felt this was his dream job, more a pleasure than employment.

Karl loved the outdoors, especially the mountains. One of his valued accomplish­ments was reaching the peak of Mount Katahdin. He loved to collect movies and had amassed over 1000 DVDs that he organized alphabetic­ally on many bookcases. He also loved reading and music. His tastes varied from classical to jazz to the blues; but classic rock was his love.
