Karl William Trisler

September 15, 1955 - August 16, 2017

Karl W. Trisler, beloved husband, father, grandpa, and friend entered eternal life on 8-16-17 at the age of 61.

We remember with gratitude a very kind, creative, and devoted man.  Karl enjoyed spending time with his grandchildren, folk dancing, reading, taking care of his plants, camping in the desert, and taking part in local plant shows.  He was a long time member of the Riverside – San Bernardino Counties Orchid Society and the Gates Cactus and Succulent Society.  He also was an accomplished artist and folk dancer who performed with several fork dance groups.  He worked at Hemet Valley Medical Center as a caregiver and cook and at Valley Resource Center as a vocational assistant for developmentally challenged adults.

He was a man with strong spiritual beliefs who studied Soto Zen under Maezumi Roshi and was an ordained Buddhist priest.

We celebrate his new life with prayers of gratitude and by remembering his kindness to friends and family and his service to the community.

Remembering our good friend with prayers and good wishes as he begins his eternal life.  Please be kind to someone in his memory.  Thanks for all your prayers.
