Adam John Karls was born June 13, 1983 in Coon Rapids, MN to Gordon and Dorinda (Wolle) Karls. He was baptized at Servant of Christ Church in Champlin, and attended Champlin Park High School. Adam was like a social worker to all his friends; he was always there to lend a hand and willing to help others who were down and out on their luck. He had a big heart. Adam always wanted a place of his own; a place he could call home. The love of his life was a two year old little girl named Melonee. Adam loved camping, fishing, and boating. He also loved working on cars and had plans to race at Brainerd International Raceway this summer.

Adam is survived by his parents Gordon and Dorinda Karls of Lucan; brother Nicholas Karls (Lina Dezuani) of Mounds View; niece Marie Irene Karls; grandmother Hazel Fisher of Jamestown, ND; and many aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends. He is preceded in death by his grandparents Norbert and Irene Karls, and Arnold Wolle, and uncle Keith Wolle.
