Karl Liepold

After a fulfilling and complete life, it's with sadness that we announce the passing of Karl Liepold. (Mar 2, 1931-May 21, 2023) We were lucky to have celebrated his 92nd birthday in March.

Born in Bavaria to a large family with nine siblings, he immigrated to Canada in 1954 and made his home living and working in the nickel mines of Onaping, ON, or "God's Country" as he called it. On top of his weekly euchre nights at the legion, he was a true outdoorsman. He spent summers tending to his garden, blueberry picking, and enjoying Windy Lake. In the winters he enjoyed cross country skiing, and eventually, wonderful trips to Cuba. He was predeceased by his wife Irene, and will be missed fondly by his daughters Heidi (Ricky deceased) Birgit, grandsons Max (Luisana) Devyn, his precious great granddaughter Talia, as well as his many friends from Onaping, his trips to Cuba, and across the world. We are comforted in knowing that he is reunited his wife Irene
