This video is so cool. I was just at Karl's yesterday!! I brought my 4 wheeler over and tried to get him to ride it but he wouldn't. He helped me fix a couple things on it and helped my grandpa out with some stuff. He is definitely a hoot and a half! Next time I see him I'll ask about you. Thank you

I honestly don't remember how I landed here but this is one beautiful story. I hope Karl can reconcile with his son and that cancer goes away. May God bless him.

I've known karl Mackey all my life. he's a great guy. my grandfather is pat mccall, I'm sure he mentioned him to you. karl is one of the best mechanics I've ever met personally. I've helped him many times with different projects and he's helped with me with many.

Hi Patrick we very much enjoyed this video and Karl reminds me of my father. You said you personally know him, my name Is Lidia I live in the state of Arizona and was wondering if you would ask Karl if he has a P.O box where my family and I could send him a Hello letter with some Arizona stuff. (Maybe a scorpion lollipops?) Thank you, and if he says no we completely understand. Thank you in advance!

@@TroutandCoffee Hello, by far a best 'work', did you follow up to ensure he has proper care and supports through his final time. I read in above comments he does not even have 'water' piped to the home...that is absolutely tragic that a community would not care for a elder ill person. This world of disregard by the masses is not ideal for me, thus why I then ensure to step in constantly and help those without shelter and help with i.e. their dogs when able and take bedding etc. Again I am so very saddened that a 'son' would not care for his father nor this community did not step in to help along time before you met this amazing human. I can listen to your voice to no end and hope that the movie biz has learned of you for narrative parts?!?

I am from Springfield just over the OH/PA line. I just uprooted my life and moved to Cleveland. But I had heard of Karl many times. When my father died and it was just my mother and I for thanksgiving. I pushed her to use the church to have a thanksgiving for all of those with little or no family. I can’t quite remember, as I was basking in the joy of having a big dinner like I’ve always dreamed of. But I know Karl at-least got a plate. He was worried about not fitting in or being cleaned up or dressed well enough for dinner. I’ve been having a hard time dealing with my past and wasn’t looking at my hometown as positively anymore. Thank you for creating this beautiful tribute to Karl and our community. It Gave me a much needed boost to keep fighting my own battles and change my life on 2020 as well. ❤️❤️❤️

Karl was exactly like my dad, a blue collar who had every tool or thing you could ever need. He also had severe mental issues which caused him to appear like a disheveled hermit. He was kind and would help anyone for anything when he was sober and straight. When he passed last June from stomach cancer, I got to hear all the stories of leaky faucets and fences he built and fixed. I was truly in Awe and it made me the worlds proudest son that my father had Created a legacy better than I had ever imagined. Thanks Finn for this weeks wonderful tale.

This is such a beautiful example of human kindness. I love that God placed you there at that exact time so you could share this wonderful story. Your parents did a wonderful job raising you. They should be so proud of the man you’ve become. If everyone in this world had your attitude, we’d be living in a much better place. Love your channel! I’ve shared it with both family and friends.

THAT was one of your most beautiful stories and it brought me to tears. It’s how life should be - one helping another, living with purpose and joy in spite of means, and seeing thru what our ego wants to find humanity and compassion for those who are different. Bravo, Kyle - your soul is shining as it was meant to! ❤️

Karl is one of my grandfathers friends. And my fiance goes four wheeling there almost every other weekend. 💛 He truly is genuine and hard working. I recognized some of his sayings in there. It's interesting to see the place I live and my hometown on here as well (:

"How A Young Man's Experience of An Old Man Changed My Life." Moved to tears by this one. You do SUCH an incredible job of capturing the soul and expressing it, Kyle. Thank you, just...thank you...

Right on man! That's awesome. Good tools and the skills to use them are such timeless things to have. I appreciate you stopping by Charlie!

Serendipitous. Thank you for this wonderful and artistic story, as the timing of watching this caught me by surprise. I, like Karl, live alone and am battling cancer. Today I was released from the hospital after major surgery. Dealing with cancer, living alone, in the midst of a global pandemic that turned society from social networking to social distancing, is something I couldn't have imagined. While I am also not a hermit, many close friends may fade away as we age, adding to my challenges. As your recent stories have shown, I too have been putting pen to paper, as my thoughts flow freer through the ink on the page rather than taps on a keyboard. I have many experiences to capture, but during this time i have found that being in the present and presence to those around me in recent days - especially those that I don't know - gave me such clarity and peace, that it helped calm my soul during such a strenuous chapter of my life. As you've captured so well, we are all human. Thank you, Kyle. TR.

The amount of times I cried while watching this is uncountable

Karl looks like the deceased Imam of our local muslim mosque. He is is genuine and I hope and pray that he is at peace till the last month of his life. Greetings from Pakistan-Canada.

That was so heartwarming. I know what it’s like to have a son that doesn’t speak to you. My son had an incredible upbringing but things happen. I haven’t heard his voice in 16yrs. I’m sure Karl’s heart aches everyday. Please... never do that to your mom. ❤️💔

Very touching Kyle. My parents are both gone because of cancer ! Lets not forget its the older generation that is disappearing. They are the ones that true wisdom comes from ! No more front porch lessons or family get together during the holidays.How i could wish i could go fishing with my dad or watch my mom make a lemon pie. We must not forget what really matters in life and what our parents and grandparents taught us ! We must carry on what we have learned from them. Wishing you a very Happy Easter! and know life still goes on after death when they cross over to the other side. We must always believe and trust in God and have faith in him to get us through the hard times. Cause when our life comes to the end he is all we have !

This was... beautiful. Heartwarming but also heartbreaking. What an amazing, simple man. And I mean simple in the best way possible. This is how more people should live. Heck, this is how I want to live, without the fast pace of life and the greed. Karl stole a piece of my heart and I truly hope he beats the cancer and does connect with his son. Other than that, this video was a work of art. It catches everything that's important in life. I am in awe...

My father was 100% Finnish and was born and raised in Ashtabula but knew Sulo Mackey and probably Karl, Finns tend to know other Finns. My dad passed away at age 95 February 15, 2019. Hearing the name Sulo brought back memories of my dad. Karl has SISU and I hope his life comes together so he can reconnect with his son. Wonderful story, thank you.

Thank you again for making a video that put the squeeze on my heart. I too had Prostate Cancer back in 05 and survive it, thank God. I have a son and daughter that I have not heard from in over 20 years and I live alone, so this video should bring my heart up to date and maybe some day, who knows. Thank you for what you do, and may God Bless you.

I'm not crying, you're crying!! You did this man's life justice with your gift. You're a beautiful soul... and A DAMN GOOD KID.

Kyle, that was beautiful. Made me cry 😭.He will never forget you being so nice to him and vice versa. You are such an amazing young man. God bless you.

I live in this small town and I sincerely hope I run into him. I would love to buy him breakfast and hear more stories about him. He reminds me of my step father who passed away 2 years ago. How precious and what a blessing to have been in the right place at the right time.

Met him today....we a just a mini conversation but in the end it felt like he was a friend. I hope he reconnects with his son and lives another 5yrs. He has a beautiful soul. Wonderful old man.

What a wonderful video. My father passed of prostate and bone cancer 10 weeks ago. Loved by many and not alone. With Jesus now but greatly missed. He would have done the same thing for you as Karl. He helped us all our lives. Perpetual dad to the end and beyond. This was one the best films seen you do and you have a real gift. I hope Karl won his fight in every sense. This was a God given moment for you, I think. Really glad found your channel. Bye for now.

I was in tears watching this ... reminded me of my passed Dad to keep moving forward in life no matter what . Praying the best for this wonderful old man that his son recognize he has a good Dad and may Mr Karl gets healed from cancer . Keep us posted Kyle if u can ❤️

May Carls soul rise as high is his kindness

Happy Father’s Day, Karl! Thank you for this, Kyle. I’m tearfully watching near Boston. You both have more to teach me and my 13 year old son than most educators and role models. We are deeply blessed by your stories and the insight into your family, friends and lifestyle. Thank you.

Karl is a treasure! You were so lucky! He has a huge heart and knows how to fix almost anything, especially with cars. He helped my daughter out so many times when she was down on her luck. He has been such a great friend to her! He is one of those salt of the earth people! Thanks for this great tribute to him

What you also witnessed which you may not be aware of is how that man represented old school America. The days before the radicalism, the butthurt,and the know it alls. You were granted a wonderful gift spending time with that man. Im disgusted that people are so blind they cant see that man is worthy of love and help. Of course this is what happens to a people who forget GOD and no longer honor old fashioned morals. I pray the wonderful story you shared with us not only touches you but brings you a great wisdom. Thanks for this! It touched me. Im over 50 and it brought back good memories.

So sad seeing such a beautiful home not being up kept. But men like him what built this country.

Conneaut is my hometown , and what Carl Mackey has is Finnish Sisu. Thank you for this beautiful story . Brought back so many memories of my own grandfather.

Kyle, this video has come at a very important time for me. We are in lockdown where I live. For the first time in my adult life I have no choice but to relax. No meetings, no sales targets, no stress. I need to change my life. I have a wife, a baby boy called Myles and an elderly mother. If I don’t do something and look up for once I might miss it. I need to have a job to pay the mortgage and provide but I need the stress to be gone, I honestly think it’s as bad for your health as smoking. I want to live my life, collect experiences with my family and be able to look back in time and say I made the most of it. This video has tipped me over the edge. 2020 is the year I change my life, I’m done with the corporate BS. Thank you.

That’s heartfelt America! Thank you...you’re blessed to have had that encounter.

Kyle, that story was priceless. For those two days you let Karl reconnect with his son in a way. You spending time with him meant so much to him . Great work as usual. My favorite story so far. You are a damn good kid!! Say hi to Hudson for us. Take care be safe!!👍🙏✌️

Kyle ,first off let me thankyou for this story! A simple reminder to appreciate who we are and where we come from.Karl reminds me so much of my Pop.He passed in 92. A year after I got married.He too passed on the love of things old and simple,of fly-fishing.And to do an honest day's work and be proud of whom you are.I miss him dearly.Ive been a subscriber I think nearly 2 years now.Although I'm much older at 53.I think we are similar in ways.too many unfinished projects,not enough me time.ill retire someday to the farm near my siblings after 30 plus years being gone about 150 miles away.To a more simpler and peaceful life.To good music,and food and a good shot of great whiskey.Cheers my friend to our lives ,may we live it on our terms,our way.

Trout and Coffee, I discovered you a while back and have enjoyed all your work Despite our Cultural differences but not so much. I live in Western Australia but have spent most of 35 years Travelling the world and mostly the hard way!.. On a budget and little money. 2 Road trips through America and Canada in the late 80's and early 90's, and so I. An relate to your geography. This story is perhaps one of your Best so far and like you said it is cutting through the bullshit and finding the gold in front of your eyes! I have mostly been the happiest when all I own is a good pair of Boots, a backpack & a road to travel and from my experience I have to tell you the Truth Karl wasn't a coincidence!!!!! The Universe sent him he was a gift for what you needed at the time! Not what you wanted but what you needed! This has happened to me many many times while out in the world and feeling Vulnerable, all of a sudden an Angel would appear and it was a gift a connection to Humanity! You will find yourself over the years into the future seeking out these very special moments for your own sanity and reason to believe in the greater good Thank you for your post and that connection with Karl Peace out!

Kyle, a fine story and tribute to a heck of a guy. I grew up with so many guys like this. I moved off to the city to chase what I thought was important. You grow older and realize that what is important is what this guy is all about. To help a stranger willingly is a rare thing these days. Good video. Here is to 2020 being a great year for you.

I remember watching this months before my mom passed in June of this year. I am rewatching it again months and months later. It is even more special and I cant help but reminisce of great memories with her. Thanks for this wonderful story Kyle. It remains one of my favorites. I am wishing Karl all the best.

I seriously appreciate that Alex!! Glad you enjoyed this. It was one of the most memorable experiences I've ever had!

You make my heart smile....such a sad story to see him alone. I’m sure you made his time with you special. You are a blessing. I believe you have found your place in this overwhelming world. Simple life, simple beliefs, Simply you. How beautiful.

Maybe, God has chosen @Trout and Coffee, to meet this kind of pure hearted man, that is a warrior along the road, not only to give him realization of life's energy and time, (a big thing) but also because God knows, Kyle, is one of the perfect man He will use to become the instrument to many, to see the life of this kind of a life-long working man, full of dreams, little by little, be covered by the time, but still living to the fullest inspite of being illed. So much sense to life, a life-learning lesson. Salute to you bro! I wish I was a man too, xD if I were, I'll definitely love to do stuffs like your doing. Especially meeting special persons, having old stories of their lives, not only just to "listen", but learn. God bless along the way, and wishing you best journeys of your life! 👏👏👏👏

My favorite video of yours so far. Wasn't expecting the tears but couldn't help it. Beautiful work.

A very touching story. My husband has survived cancer 3 years longer than expected and still going. I am very thankful for that.

Thank you so much David!! I appreciate that beyond words!

Something that a dear friend wrote to me when I was 14 years old: "There is a destiny that makes us brothers. No one walks this earth alone. The good deeds we do for others, will come back unto our very own" . I dedicated my public service life to that motto for 45 years. Like you I have a trail of people that I have met in my life that have been my "cairns". Not to sound too cosmic but I think they have been the delivery mechanism for my "return on investment".

i cried my eyes out watching this. kindness is the way, u can learn something from any an everyone if ur just willing to listen. i truly appreciate your channel an the way u see the world an all people in it.

This is my favorite out of all the videos you have done. A great story. Hope your 2020 plan is working out.
