Dr. Karl was a pleasure to have around Emeritus at Sandy Springs. I did my internship there this summer from May-July. He was trying to teach me a little bit of German each day, even though I wasn't very good at it. He always had a smile on his face and I will really miss seeing him around the halls when I go back to visit!

Dr. Karl was my physician for many years. I have no doubt that he saved my life on New Years Day 1970 or '71.  I had a temperature of 104 degrees and climbing. I called Karl and without hesitation said I will meet you at the hospital immediately.  I was sick for over a month. There is no doubt that he saved my life.  God bless you Dr. Karl.

Dr.Karl was a great friend and one of the most talented men I have ever known.We became friends during the final five years of his life meeting at the Manchester Arms almost every night that I spent in Atlanta. I had the pleasure of being invited to Karl's home many times where we talked for hours about flying,travel and Karl's amazing adventures during and after World War II. We travelled to Prague together with Dr. Ivan Bakkerman, Karl's closest friend. Karl always referred to Ivan as the smartest man he ever knew. These were wonderful experiences and will always remain with me. God bless Karl Ullman, may his soul rest in peace.

Dr. Ullman was a special person.
A great doctor who cared about you.
He always had our best interest at heart.
It was always a pleasure to go and see him at his office.
He was a gentleman.
I will always remember him.

Karl was my Doctor and friend for many years.  As a fellow German I would like to say, "Auf Wiedersehen und segnet Gott Sie mein lieber Freund."   If other pilots and friends would like to join me in contributing to Karl's funeral expense, please contact me at 770-552-0521.

Dr. Ullman was my physician from 1967 until his retirement. Such a gentle sole.Dr. Ullman always took time to go into details on each exam. Drawing pictures to explain what was taking place. My condolences go out to his family and friends. Rest in peace dear friend.

Uncle Karl was a fine man and doctor. I enjoyed many hours in his and Aunt Ruby's company as a child and a young man. Karl was always kind and wise and fun to be around. His tales of flying planes in WWII, being shot down and captured by the Russians always captivated me. Probably the most fun I had with Uncle Karl was on the golf course. Uncle Karl was very technical in his approach to sports and what he lacked in skill, he made up for in enthusiasm. I have many great memories of Uncle Karl and Aunt Ruby. I knew and thought of them as great individuals but even more as a great pair.......as they will be for eternity now.

Dr Karl was not only my FAA doctor but a great friend. We attended many Quiet Birdmen meetings and events all over the country togather. I enjoyed picking him up to take to our local meetings here in Atlanta. He will be missed. He always greeted me with a huge smile and warm handshake. Charlie Wilson  Luthersville, GA

Karl was the best.  We would spend an hour talking during my physicals as I was from Germany as well.  His train escape out of Prague was something to listen to.  
Karl was a gentle, lovely man.

A real gentleman and a excellent Doctor/AME.  I would have loved to have been able to sit down and talk with him about his German Air Force days.

Dr. Ullman was my Doctor for many years. As an FAA Medical Examiner, he cared about his patients and did his best to keep them flying. I remember the many conversations we had regarding his flight experiences. He will be missed by many of the pilot friends he made over the years. Clear Skies and Following Winds on your flight Dr. Ullman, you have many friends waiting to welcome you to your home above.

Dr Ullman was my FAA doctor for 25 years.  Any health problem I had he would always reassure me,,,"no problem I can fix that" and he did.
What a lovely man.

I was broken hearted when Dr. Ullman retired from practice. I had to search to find another to take his place as my AME. Although I found another AME, I did not find another like Karl. I will miss him at the meetings.

Dr.Ullman was a great friend and doctor who took care of my FAA visits for many years. One thing he always told me was,. I will look after my pilots,and he did. I will miss him.

Dr. Ullman was not just an aeromedical examiner, he was a true friend of so many Southern Airways pilots, we will miss him.

Dr. Ullman was my FAA doctor for many years and a neighbor. He was a delightful person who will be missed. 

Ruhe in Frieden

Dear Ullman family,
I am so sorry to hear of Dr. Ullman's death. Our families have known each other for many years as neighbors in Williamsburg. My father, Dr Earle Toler, and Dr. Ullman were friends and colleagues at South Fulton. I can still see Dr. Ullman walking down the halls at the hospital. I was a nurse there for 26 years. We all loved Dr. Ullman with his calm and careing manner. His patients also loved him and would not do anything unless Dr. Ullman said it was o.k.
Daddy passed away on August 4, 2012 and I saw your anouncement while reading Daddy's guest book entries. Please know that our family will be thinking of you and understanding how heartbroken you are.
Kathy Toler Mote

Uncle Karl was a fantastic uncle. He and Aunt Ruby treated me like their own son. I'm sure Aunt Ruby was glad to see him again.  He sure missed her.

To the Family of Dr Karl Ullman

Please accept our most heartfelt sympathies for your loss. Our thoughts are with you during this difficult time.
