I am so sorry to hear of Karl’s passing. We went to school together in Berkeley County West Virginia. He was always so kind. I am so sorry and will keep his family in my prayers…may God give you his peace that passes all understanding.
Karl was so nice and always a gentleman. I’ll never forget babysitting for him and his sister, and many sunny days spent together at the neighborhood pool.
I was very saddened to hear of Karl’s passing. Karl was my supervisor prior to becoming ATF employees. We became friends during his years at the ATF National Tracing Center.

I had the honor and pleasure of working with Karl for the past six years in the Regulations and Rulings Division at TTB. We are simply not going to be the same place without him. I will miss his smiling face, his dedication, his gentlemanly manner, his thoroughness, his humor, his willingness to take on any task, his ability to make the best out of any given situation, his travel stories, and most of all his respect for and love of all people. I’m sure he’s in heaven.

Dearest Stacey, Our hearts go out to you at the sudden and unexpected loss of your husband. Lyme Disease is an insidious, poorly understood disease which people don’t realize can be fatal. Your husband was far too young to fall victim to this horrific disease. Your love and caring for your husband shone through in your dedicated search for treatment and resources for him. You were a wonderful wife and advocate for him, reaching out to find whatever help you could for him. We are all shocked by his sudden passing. We wish we could reach out and wrap our arms around you. We are so, so sorry this disease claimed the life of your beloved husband. Our hearts and prayers are with you. Tracy and Blake Will
Stacey, Our heartfelt sympathies to you on Karl’s sudden death due to complications from chronic LYME/TICK disease! I’ve known you thru http://www.lymenet.org and assisted & supported you when you joined our lyme board. The entire lyme community sends our heartfelt sympathies to you although we had never met Karl! We followed his lyme journey as you posted. What an outstanding wife you were to him digging for info galore and about the BEST LYME LITERATE MD, LLMD, in your state! He couldn’t have wanted anyone better than you, and all your support and unconditional love to this god-awful, debilitating disease.
I am so sorry for the loss of your husband from Lyme disease. No one should have to go through this fate, let alone a young man like Karl. I hope everyone can protect as much as possible from getting it, and to seek out treatment quickly if needed. Thank you, Stacey, for reaching out on lymenet – we all care.
Stacey, Our thoughts and prayers are with you. While we did not have the pleasure of knowing Karl for very long we will rememeber him as a kind and good hearted neighbor. Please call us if you need anything.
Stacy, our thoughts and prayers are with you as we all mourn Karl’s death.
Though I did not know Karl personally, his sudden death has affected me deeply. As a fellow Lyme Disease sufferer, his passing really touches the core of me. God Bless you Stacy in the days ahead. The love that you had for Karl was so beautifully obvious. I hope that you are comforted in that fact. God Bless Karls parents and sister as well….the messages left here reflect what a fine human being Karl was. Rhonda L. Nielsen Michigan
To the Joedicke’s – I was very saddened to hear of Karl’s passing. I have many fond memories of the fun times I had with him – wrestling (he was strong as an ox), eating lunch at school, climbing the rocks down by the Potomac, and boxing in your basement are just a few. He was a good friend to me but, most of all, he was a good person to everyone.
I was friends with Karl in high school and I was shocked and saddened to hear of his death. My prayers are with his wife and family. May God be with you and give you peace.

I knew Karl through working on various assignments at the Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) with him. He was such an easy going kind man! I will miss Karl and extend my heartfelt thoughts of his loss to his friends and family.
I first met Karl back in 2006 when I was temporarily working at headquarters with RRD on revising regulations. After Steve retired last year, Karl and I began to work more closely on denatured alcohol issues. Karl had big shoes to fill with Steve’s retirement, but he was definitely capable and up for the job. He was a valuable resource for TTB members and the industry, and I always referred others to him when there was a regulatory issue dealing with denatured alcohol. Karl will definitely be missed. I pray that the family will find peace in knowing that Karl is no suffering from his illness and that comfort will be found in the beautiful memories that have been formed over his 34 years in this life.
Stacy, we were so sorry to hear of Karl’s passing. Our thoughts are with you. Betty and Mike
Stacy I am so sorry to hear of this huge loss that you’ve suffered! I hope you are finding peace and comfort in your memories of Karl. With love and sympathy, Sarah
Dear Stacey, I am so sorry to hear about your husband. I saw it in the paper and just to let you know I was thinking about you. Take care,
I know shock is an understatement when I heard about Karl. The Lord would bring him to mind from time to time, and I always wanted to know how he was doing. It is unfortunate that I did not pursue those thoughts into action, and now it is too late. Karl and I went to elementary, middle, and high school together. Being a high degree blackbelt in martial arts, he could whoop anyone at anytime, yet he chose the route of peace, humility, and kindness. I have good memories of him, and not enough space to share. I pray for Karl’s family in their grief, and hope that Karl Joedicke is not too soon forgotten. I know I won’t forget him. Jeremiah 29:11-13
