Karl-Heinz Wiesbock, 65, of East Sandwich MA peacefully passed away on
Friday, July 27th (2012), with family surrounding him in his final days. He
bravely fought cancer for the last two years, keeping his sense of humor to
end.
Karl was born in Vienna, Austria on March 21st, 1947, son of the late Herta
Aichberger Voloshin of Hingham MA . His life took him to live in many
countries before making the U.S. him home, and lived in Northern Virginia, the
Shennandoah Valley of Virginia and recently East Sandwich, MA. Those who knew
him appreciated his love of life, sense of adventure and "living in the
moment".
He leaves his wife of 36 years, Sara, two sons, Erik Karl of Chantilly VA,
Mark Paul of Falls Church, VA and granddaughter Kennedy Blaire of Chantilly
VA. Also to grieve his loss are his sister Cindy Barry and her family, husband
Chris, niece Caroline, nephew Matt and Kirby the pup, Karl's bagel buddy of
Norwell MA. Also, Karl's brother Larry Voloshin and his family, niece Julianna
and nephews Harrison, Colin and Erik of Bedford NH, plus many other family
members and friends.
Karl attended the Art Institute of Boston and opened his own Graphic
Arts/Screen Printing Company in Falls Church VA and continued his business
until his death. In addition, he was very active in the community, including
youth soccer leagues in Northern VA and Woodstock VA, including coaching, one
of the founding members of the Shenandoah Forum in Woodstock VA and various
community organizations.
His love of kayaking was therapeutic in his last year, often exploring Scorton
Creek and the inlets of Sandwich.
In lieu of flowers, please make a donation in Karl's name to the wonderful
McCarthy Care Center of East Sandwich, MA who helped make his last days
peaceful and comfortable.
A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date
