I met Cap and Karn on a trip to Australia. They took me under their "wing" and we had the best of times. Lots of laughter. On one of their road trips they came east and stayed with us for a few days....what fun playing cards all night...going to our casinos.....We feel honored to have been in their lives and hope to continue the fun and laughter with Karn. Hold the door open for us Cap.....you know Harv loves to fish and play cards......

After sending the guest entry this morning, I should have waited. A friend and I went ice fishing this morning. I caught 9 bluegills on a bait Cap gave me. Just like the first time I ever saw him, I caught fish on a bait he gave me. What a friend.

I have known Cap since 1998 when I met him on Big Muskego ice fishing. He was catching fish and I wasn't, so he gave me a bait. That started a long friendship with my very best friend ever. Cap always fished with something else. He wouldn't fish with what I was fishing with unless I was catching fish. You never knew what he was fishing with; cut bait, plastic, and he always put anise oil on everything. The "little fart: was always catchin' fish and now he ain't around.

I spent many happy hours with him, not only fishing but at other times too. In the summertime he always took the stuff we had left in the garden. He always said it shouldn't go to waste, even though Karn didn't want to do it. She had already done all the canning she wanted to do, but he'd still take it home to her. He told me about her really good pickle recipes.

Cap had this trumpet vine growing in his backyard that I liked. New ones kept popping up all over. For years I couldn't get one to grow, then Cap started bringing me starts from his. This last year our trumpet vine took off like wildfire and Cap was still trying to get rid of his.

I talked to him a week or ten days ago and told him another friend of mine and I had made an agreement, that whoever was to go first, him or I, we would leave the door open for the next guy. Cap told me he would go before either of us and leave the door open. Don't catch all the fish, Cap, cause I'm coming.

Cap will be missed by all those who knew him or had anything to do with him. A great Fisherman who enjoyed being out on the water attempting to catch the "Big One". And if he caught smaller ones, that was OK with him. He enjoyed Life and right to the end, he gave it his "Best Shot". He was an example that would be hard for anyone else to try to take his place.
