Our prayers go out for the family at this time! We now live in what was Karl and Nancy’s Potter County cabin. We will miss their visits. We think of them often and enjoy our retirement in the property that was their small piece of God’s Country here on earth and look forward to seeing them again in God’s Heaven someday.

I had the privilege of offering communion to Nancy and Karl for several years. My visits were never confined to just sharing bread and wine, they always included great conversation and exchanging stories about family and friends. I was always greeted with a huge, heart melting smile from Nancy. I learned some history of Lititz, history of the Erb family and history of the Usner family. But most of all, I learned that there were 3 things that were very, very important to Karl and Nancy. Firstly, their faith in God. It kept them grounded and directed their life decisions. Secondly, they deeply loved their children, grandchildren, nieces and nephews and all who are included in their family circle. And lastly, they wanted to be good people; loving, generous, and kindhearted. They fulfilled those wishes and goals with ‘flying colors’. I feel so blessed to have had the opportunity to get to know the Usner’s. I will miss Karl and Nancy, but I am comforted knowing they are eternally together in God’s beautiful gardens. Love, Tami Ruckel

I’m so sorry to see that Karl has passed away. I remember him so fondly from my years working at St. Paul. He was very kind, and I always enjoyed my conversations with him as he helped so much around the church. I hope his being reunited with Nancy, eases the pain of his loss for his family.

My prayers for your family through your grief.  I enjoyed knowing Carl through my work at LH.  He was most kind and reached out to others, showing care for them.  I will miss him.  God be with you all.
