Dr. Hasskarl was our family doctor growing up, as well as a family friend. I know that his presence will be greatly missed by both family and friends. My deepest sympathy goes out to the family at this time.

Our families have such histories. We are with you in spirit.

My family and I have depended on Dr. Hasskarl's compassionate care for as long as I can remember. He was a fine human being, and the world is a sadder place without him.

My deepest sympathy to you, the family of Dr. Hasskarl. On a Sunday morning in early February, 1962, I found myself in the ER in Brenham as a result of a serious auto accident. To my good fortune, Dr. Hasskarl was on duty in the ER. He repaired my face and gave me courage to make it through a number of pain filled days. I want you to know how much I appreciate everything he did. Years later, He remembered me and called me by name! I was moved to tears. May God grant you His peace.

Dr. Hasskarl was my personal Dr. all my life and I would like to extend my best wishes to his family for their loss of such a wonderful kind person.

The last time I say him was at the Ford dealership in Brenham and we had the opportunity to have a long visit. I got a "great big" HUG.

He will be missed by many.

To Dr. Boy's dear family,

Doc was one of a kind, and I feel blessed to have gotten to know him some over the past year. He was the subject of my story on Brenham in the 1920s, called Bootleggers, Baseball and Barbecue, which ran in Texas Co-Op Power Magazine last summer. But Doc was more than just a window to the past...he knew Brenham history and her people, was passionate about life and living it to the fullest, and I had a hard time keeping up with him on our jaunts around Brenham and Washington County. We later toured the Wendish museum together and he introduced me to some of Brenham's most colorful and fascinating characters. I will never forget the times I spent in his company. He was one of a kind, a southern gentleman, the likes of which we shall not see again. He had a genuine sense of wonder and curiosity about the world, and wrote with the same humorous and gentle touch that he seemed to offer to all those around him. He will be sorely missed.

With my deepest sympathy and thoughts for your family at this time of great loss.
