I am sorry for your loss. I enjoyed having Karl for a math teacher and sitting with him while playing my cello.
He was always kind and understanding. I really appreciated his patience. I wish my father had been as kind and understanding as Karl was. His presence in my life was a gift.
My deepest sympathies to the entire Nienhuis family. I’m so sorry for your loss.
My heartfelt condolences to Karl M Nienhuis and family for the loss of his father. I have had the pleasure to work with Karl M at North High School in Sheboygan. He is an inspiring and positive teacher and coach, and makes a difference every day in the lives of students. I have also had Karl M's sons in class. Super students and athletes. A great family and a joy to be around.
Wishing you God's strength and comfort during this time,
Tamara Byberg-Kautzer
Mr. Neinhaus was an excellent and important role model for me growing up. A very kind person at church, an important teacher at school and my wrestling coach. I am grateful for knowing him and am keeping his family in my thoughts!
Susan and family, we are so sad to hear of Karl's passing. Mom and dad enjoyed their time with the both of you so much, whether playing bridge, cheering on the Badgers or catching up while everyone was in Florida. Sending thoughts and hugs your way.
Respected family in Beaver Dam. Great educator. Sympathy to the family.
Wonderful teacher! I was blessed to know Karl.
Loved being a student of yours and fishing in Canada with you, Big Kahuna. You were loved and will be truly missed. My sincere condolences to the entire family.

My sympathy to you and your family. Karl was a person I admired and liked to work for and with.
Many years ago I knew him as Mr. Neinhuis my geometry teacher. Then I moved into the Evergreen Estates condoes. He soon became Karl to me and I enjoyed his smile and laughter for 12 years. I will sorely miss our conversations as there were many times he would be outside when i was on my walks. Rest in peace dear friend and neighbor. I will keep your family in my prayers. Mary
