Carl Bayerl passed away after a long battle with diabetes. He was an Apartment Association member since 1986.
You could count on Carl to be the first one in the door at every legislative hearing, every Association event and meeting. When it took getting up at 4 AM, Carl would be there ahead of guys half his age.
Carl was never a man of many words publicly, but he loved the legislative trips to Madison. One of my fondest memories of Carl was at one of these hearings. When it was his turn to speak, he walked up to the committee with a telephone book, put it on the table and said something like ‘Landlords already have a stack of rules bigger than this! And you want to add more?’ That was it and he sat back down. It probably had more impact than all the twenty minute arguments made by me and others.
Memorial will be on Wednesday from 11pm to 1pm at
Prosser funeral home 3235 s. Howell ave.
Burial is at the VA in union Grove. This is where John Chitko is also buried.
