Beloved brother, uncle, and friend passed away unexpectedly in his home in Saginaw, Michigan, on Saturday, December 9th, 2023, at the age of 62. Karl was born in Saginaw on December 3rd, 1961, to the late Robert & Virginia (Dreffs) Cook. He spent his time helping his friends, family, and community by mowing lawns, making repairs, and being an all-around handyman. Karl loved to stay active fishing and bowling. He occupied much of the rest of his time listening to music of all sorts, enjoying the Detroit Tigers radio, and starting his day with a cup of coffee. Karl would give the shirt off his back if someone needed it and was someone his friends and family were glad to know and have in their life. He was never judgmental, and his easy-going nature helped inspire others to keep an open mind and take it easy.
Karl is survived by sister Cathy (Dave) Baase and brother Philip Cook. He is also survived by many nieces, nephews, other family members, and friends.
Karl was preceded in death by parents Robert & Virginia Cook and sister Christine Cook.
A private committal service will take place at Eastlawn Memorial Gardens. Those planning an expression of sympathy may wish to consider a donation to the family discretionary fund c/o Cathy Baase. Arrangements have been entrusted to the W. L. Case and Company Funeral Directors, 4480 Mackinaw Road, Saginaw, Michigan, 48603. Please share your thoughts, prayers, and memories with the family at www.casefuneralhome.com.
