Carl Mosser

Carl Ray "Butch" Mosser passed away peacefully on August 15, 2023 at the age of 84. 

He was predeceased by his parents Carl and Virginia Mosser and the love of his life and wife of 60 years Margaret “Megs” Mosser, and a great-grandchild (Porter).

Carl leaves behind his loving daughters Deborah Martin (Craig), Michelle “Shelly” Kroskie (David), Margaret “Peggy” McCartney, and son Robert Mosser, 11 grandchildren he adored, 11 great grandchildren, and many more who called him friend. 

Carl was a dedicated educator and coach for 33 years for FWCS, the last 14 at North Side High School.  Through the years Carl touched the lives of many as a biology teacher, football, track and cross-country coach.   After retiring from education, he worked for the Lagrange County Sewer District supervising the new sewer installations at Big Long Lake and the surrounding area.  Carl was an avid outdoorsman and environmentalist.  He was a tireless volunteer for the Big Long Lake Association where he and Megs built their dream home in 1987.   

He will be remembered by many for his quick wit, practical jokes, his generosity of time and treasures, his love of family, friends, food, football and all things Purdue.
