Paul Frederick Karl

Paul F. Karl, a kind and gentle soul, known for his unwavering devotion to his family and community, passed away peacefully in 2024, at the age of 94.

Born on a Kansas farm in 1930, Paul lived a life rich in experiences and service.

Shortly after his time in the military, he married the love of his life and settled in a small town. 

He would go on to work as an insurance agent  building many long term relationships through his upbeat spirit,

 unique warmth, and integrity.

A man of many passions, Paul dedicated years of service as a docent at Las Golondrinas, where his love of history and

storytelling was appreciated by all who visited. His voice was also a familiar sound to many, as he sang joyfully in the 

church choir, bringing a smile to everyone fortunate enough to have heard him.

Paul had an adventurous spirit. With a particular fondness for travel, especially by train, he cherished the journey as much

as the destination. Always taking time to enjoy the simple pleasures along the way.

Above all, Paul will be remembered for his loving nature and playful sense of humor, often bringing laughter to family and

friends with his signature "bad Dad jokes". He Leaves behind two children, one grandchild, and countless fond memories

that will be cherished forever.

His gentle presence will be deeply missed but his legacy of love, laughter and service will live on in the hearts of all who knew him.
