OPINION
more spending on the part of the Legislature. Jail time and required court appearances of the drivers also increases
the cost of government.
Being against something such as
new refugee families doesnt cost taxpayers anything. Opponents paint it with
anti-terrorism hues.
President Obama has proposed accepting 10,000 refugees nationally. If relocated
proportionally, Wisconsin would receive
200 persons, or 50 families of four.
Over the years in Wisconsin, the real
work of helping refugees, regardless of
their race or religion, has fallen to Lutheran and Catholic social service agencies.

All this new construction is creating problems on the island. Most of the
building is for second homes for people
who live in Austin, San Antonio, or Dallas. They built these homes with the idea
that theyll retire here some day, or they
are built as rentals for those just wanting
to live here a short time.
It prices those who work on the island
right out of a place to live and, in a way,
creates problems for businesses trying to
find employees.
The other one suffering is the school
district, which has seen their enrollment
decline as people with families live off the
island in housing they can afford.
The city council is trying to work something out, but who in their right mind is
going to build a house to sell for a couple
of hundred thousand dollars when the
market is seeing homes ranging in price
from half a million to a million bucks?
TF-20048
Weve been here for a week and are beginning to get our routine in place. It has
taken awhile to learn when our favorite
television shows are on. The Price is Right
is on at 10, just like home, but Jeopardy
comes on at eleven and the second show
follows right behind. Thats fine, as it allows the whole afternoon for exploring
the island.
We had a couple of days of rainy weather when we first arrived, but things have
turned around and today, after the fog
lifted, was just grand. The temperature
got up near 70 and it was actually nice to
sit in the shade.
The ships, pelicans, and dolphins
havent disappointed us, with a good show
by all. This afternoon we drove first to
Roberts Park and then to the jetty next to
the ship channel where we watched five
ships that were out-bounded and one came
in along with the new gambling boat.

Jean Graves
P. Jean Graves, 81, Spencer, passed away peacefully in
the early hours of Sunday, Jan. 10, 2016, at the House of
the Dove in Marshfield. Visitation will be held from 4-8
p.m. at Life Tributes Funeral Home in Spencer on Friday,
Jan. 15, and again on Saturday, Jan. 16 from 10-11 a.m.
at the United Methodist Church in Spencer, where her
funeral service will be held at 11 a.m. Burial will follow
immediately after the service at West Spencer Cemetery.
Pallbearers will be Eric Aspey, Elliot Graves, Will Graves,
Neil Plummer, Nick Graves, Timothy Kraus, Jacob Weaver
and Landon Moore.
Jean Heckel was born on March 24, 1934, in Marshfield,
to Orena (nee Petersen) and John Heckel. She graduated
from Columbus High School, Marshfield. She married Spencer DuWayne Graves
on Dec. 28, 1954, at Our Lady Of Peace Rectory in Marshfield. They were married
47 years until Spencer passed away on June 2, 2002. Jeans favorite memories of
her youth were times spent on her family farm, and to this day her brother, Harry,
and his wife still live there. The importance of family, integrity and charity were
practiced and instilled in the Heckel household and Jean continued to live by those
values throughout her life. She was a member of the United Methodist Women,
Spencer Womans Club and Eastern Star. She was also a Girl Scout leader, a poll
worker for the village of Spencer and served on the Board of Directors of the Lucille
Tack Center for the Arts. What she treasured the most was time spent with friends
and family. She looked forward to her Friday night outings with her friends, at a
different restaurant every week. As far as family, there were not many events she
missed. No matter the age, she loved all the children in her life and gave generously
of her time and love. So much so, Jean and Spence opened their home and were
foster parents to two children. Some of her hobbies included reading, crocheting,
puzzles, shopping, and watching sports (especially the Green Bay Packers). She
was also an excellent cook and baker.
Jean is survived by her children, April Weaver, Spencer, Spencer (Mary) Graves,
Spencer, Jackie Graves, Marshfield, Greg (Val) Graves, Crystal, Minn., Jeff (Julie)
raves, Hewitt, and Sarah (Patrick) Kraus, Pittsville; eight grandchildren, Michelle
Aspey, Elliot Graves, Erica McCall, Brittany (Neil) Plummer, Nick Graves, Will
Graves, Lauren Graves and Timothy Kraus; and two brothers, Jerome (Donna) Heckel and Harry (Karen) Heckel. She has also been blessed with 10 great-grandchildren.
She was predeceased by her husband, Spencer; a sister, Joan Reigel; and her
parents.
Jean had expressed her desire for memorial donations to be made to the Lucille
Tack Center for the Arts, 300 N. School St., P.O. Box 337, Spencer, WI 54479.
The family wishes to thank the thoughtful, caring and tireless staff at the House
of the Dove.

LESAR
by TRG Editor Dean Lesar
an igloo north of the Arctic Circle. Not sure why
that image came to mind, but it seems to work.
I tried downhill skiing when I was a kid and
my leg bones were still flexible enough to wrap
around the back of my head while cart-wheeling
down a mountainside while wearing boots that
each weighed as much as a small anvil (I don't
know, do anvils come in more than one size?).
Actually, descending the steep ski hill inclines
were not much of a problem for me, because
I never much got the hang of using a rope tow
while 2x4s were tied to my feet. Once in a while,
my scarf would get tangled in the rope and
drag me up the hill while my larynx was being
crushed, and then I would feel the tremendous
rush -- i.e, the shamefaced panic -- of standing
at the top of the precipice, knowing that the rest
of my family would be divvying up my belongings before nightfall. My sister wanted my Barbie
dolls, I know she did.
I have been on cross country skis, too, but not
for very long. The part where you slide gracefully
along pre-formed trails on flat ground is almost
enjoyable, but inevitably, you have to make a
gradual ascent up a mild slope, only to round a
bend in the woods to find an 89-degree vertical
plunge for which you are neither physically nor mentally prepared. The last
time I went out, I skied a considerable
distance on a loop away from the trail
head, where I crashed into the underbrush and ripped the sole from my ski
boot. For those of you who are unaware
of the importance of a proper boot
while cross-country skiing, stay that
way. It took me the rest of the winter
and the first part of the growing season
to get back to my car.
I will admit that ice fishing is almost
a bearable way to spend some winter
time, as long as you have 500-gram Thinsulate
boots, gloves, underwear, socks, hat and jacket
and an insulated shack with a wood or gas stove,
in which case you've spent more on the hobby
than you did on your house, so why not just stay
on the couch in the first place. Ice fishing is a
sport that's defined by murderously long hours
of awful boredom, interrupted less than seldom
by hallucinogenic moments when you swear
your plastic bobber jiggled. Trust me. It didn't.
It is an infallible rule of ice fishing that the
other guy who's with you catches all the fish,
even though his hole in the ice is only six
inches away from your hole in the ice, and
you're using the same bait, at the same depth,
and you've even shaved some skin off his fingers
and rubbed it on your line so his DNA will be
evident there, too. As his fish pile grows, you
grow more angry, and an experience that started
out optimistically enjoyable soon turns to an
interior burning rage that only gets worse as
you realize that spring is still more than two
months away.
And you thought bears and skunks were just
stupid animals.
came night we switched over for walleye. Over the course of the weekend
we caught five snakes and no walleye.
Our comfortable abode is lit with propane lights that run off 20-pound
cylinders and later in the night Paul Bucher heated up scalloped potatoes and ham.
At dark we had about 35 crappie between the four of us that were all
in the 9-inch range. Mr. Schiefelbein likes to call them lobsters of the
lake.
When we pulled tip ups and headed to camp we had about 70 extremely tasty crappie between the four of us.
If you were outside of our shack and listening, you would pretty
much hear non-stop laughter.
Saturday, Jan. 2 -- high 32, low 19
Today, Preston joined our ranks, I probably should have charged the
battery on my Vexilar, (it showed the pretty colors but not my jig) we
caught a lot of fish and we laughed a lot.
At one time I had a flag and missed a small fish right at the hole. Chris
Bein was watching the experience and as usual verbally abusing me.
Low and behold I had a line hooked onto my tip up and though I had
to pull really hard I broke it off from the tree that it must have been
snagged onChris starts pulling in the other end and there is about a
24-inch snake on it and all the line from someones tip up.
No ones flag went up so we figured it was a fish that had been hooked
a day or two earlier. When we showed the guys the set up Joey claimed
it was his rig and I may have put the entire spool into a very large mess.
Joeys flag never went up and there was some debate as to why that
may have happened.
Well after dark I burned a precooked hot dish that had kind of froze
and even my dog would not eat.
This trip is so much fun that we must return next year!
