By Adam Pincus

“From housing to health care to crime, Karl fought to ensure that the concerns of Queens residents were heard in the City Council, the mayor's office, Albany, and in Washington, DC,” U.S. Rep. Joseph Crowley said.

A wake was held Friday at Frederick Funeral Home in Bayside. His funeral was scheduled for Saturday at Saint Mark's Episcopal Church, at 33-50 82nd St. in Jackson Heights.
