Paula Spina peers into her 1950s-era crystal ball, but it offered no clues to the whereabouts of the ghost that haunts the Col. Walter Crockett House.

Unwanted guest may haunt

CROCKETT HOUSE

By JESSIE STENSLAND Staff reporter

The owner of a 150-year-old house in Central Whidbey plans to open it as a bed and breakfast after years of being closed to the public, but there may be one tenant who’s never left.

For decades stories have circulated about a spirit haunting the historic Col. Walter Crockett House. There’s tales of an unseen presence, objects moving by themselves and strange noises at night.

But unlike most other haunted house stories on Whidbey Island, ghost hunters can point to a specific dead person who might be lingering inside the farmhouse.

Charles Crockett, one of the colonel’s sons, killed himself in an upstairs bedroom on Dec. 12, 1893.

His blood still stains the floor boards underneath the carpeting. His trou-

bled spirit is said to roam the old parts of the house.

Or perhaps those days are gone.

Paula Spina, who owns the home and the adjacent Crockett barn, said she’s never noticed anything otherworldly in the circa-1850s house.

And she’s sensitive to those kind of things, being the owner of a genuine crystal ball and an occasional seance participant.

“It’s a very peaceful home,” she said. “Very comfortable. No bad feelings.”

Spina is in the process of getting the house ready to open once again as a bed and breakfast establishment.

She obtained the necessary permits and remodeled the kitchen. She lured historian Diana Peterson away from the Camlann Medieval Village to be the “bed and breakfast proprietress.”

Campaign contributions.

Are they a barometer of public support? A crystal ball into tomorrow’s agenda? Or, in small communities such as Oak Harbor where everyone knows everyone, are they simply the ultimate expression of one friend supporting another?

Whatever the case, the vast majority of those paving the road to power with their pocketbooks this year are doing so for Jim Slowik. The incumbent in the one of the most hotly contested mayor’s races in years, Slowik has amassed $13,828 from some 98 contributors since June.

“I’m humbled by the fact that people have confidence in me,” Slowik said.

Challenger Scott Dudley isn’t far behind, at least in terms of total contributions.

Since he filed in March, the Dudley campaign has amassed $10,799. However, it comes from just 41 people, fewer than half the number Slowik contributors. But Dudley is unfazed, saying fundraising hasn’t been the focus of his campaign.

“We were more focused on spreading the message,” Dudley said.

On the Slowik side, an $800 check from Skagit Island Realtors Group’s makes them the mayor’s largest financial backer though Corey Johnson from C Johnson Construction comes in at a close second with a $500 donation.

However, couples and family members who made separate donations have contributed equal or, in one case, greater sums. The mayor’s brother and sister-inlaw, Brian and Warangkana Slowik, put in a total of $800, while retired developer Bill Massey and his wife, Kathy,

have collectively thrown $500 into the pot. Greg Wasinger and his wife, Linda, also contributed a total of $500. They own an Oak Harbor 7-Eleven store and Greg is a member of the Oak Harbor Planning Commission.

Other top contributing business people include John McMahon of Northrop Grumman Field Support Services, who pitched $250; $200 donations from Tony Bartley of Whidbey Community Physicians and self-employed dentist Gary Berner; $150 from Kristi Leland of Windermere Real Estate; and finally, $100 sums from Michael Horrobin of Oak Harbor Motors, Geri Morgan of Koetje Real Estate, and both Greg Saar and Christon Skinner of the Law Offices of Skinner & Saar.

According to state Public Disclosure Commission records, the restaurant China City contributed $200 but an individual is not identified.

Slowik also saw financial backing from a host of past and present elected officials.

Oak Harbor City Councilman Rick Almberg pitched in $250, Councilman Bob Severns $200 and Councilman Danny Paggao’s wife, Nida, $100.

Island County Sheriff Mark Brown contributed $100 and former Oak Harbor Mayor Al Koetje gave $75.

Other community wellknowns who made donations include a $250 check from Oak Harbor School District Superintendent Rick Schulte — he also gave $100 to Dudley — $290 worth of contributions from longtime SEE PDC, A7

Oak Harbor Chamber puts candidates on the grill

By JUSTIN BURNETT Staff reporter

Along with salad and soup, Oak Harbor Chamber of Commerce members got to chew on political barbs and character innuendos at the groups’ candidate forum Thursday.

Held at the Elks Lodge, the lunch-time meeting offered Oak Harbor City Council and mayoral candidates a chance to speak to the business community about their plans and hopes for political office.

Most candidates stuck to the issues, rehashing familiar topics that ranged from SE Pioneer Way and open government to the needs and benefits of long-planned-for infrastructure projects.

However, with the Nov. 8 election day so close at hand and ballots already mailed, it’s no surprise that a few were feeling a little feisty and couldn’t resist a jab or two at their opponents. Causing the most stir, perhaps, were comments made by Rick Almberg, the incumbent run-

ning for Position 3 on the city council.

Heavily implying a lack of honesty on behalf of other candidates, though he didn’t get into specifics or even say who he was talking about, Almberg stressed that strong and healthy government can only be created if voters have all the information they need to make a good choice. “It starts with honesty from each one of us,� said Almberg, referring to personal resumes and accomplishments.

Naturally, challenger Mel Vance assumed Almberg was talking about him. “I’m about as honest as you can be,� Vance responded.

Firing back, Vance said he has a long record of consistency when “others� have not. Like Almberg, he didn’t dive into specifics or say who he was talking about.

Political newcomer Tara Hizon didn’t pull any punches either. Running for Position 1 on the city council, Hizon was quick to go on the offensive against her opponent, Paul

Brewer, concerning his ideas on job creation.

Brewer, who spoke first, said he hopes to attract new businesses and industries to town by offering incentives, such as allowing them to pay +VTUJO #VSOFUU 8IJECFZ /FXT 5JNFT development and impact fees over time rather than all at Oak Harbor City Council candidate Rick Almberg speaks duronce. ing the Oak Harbor Chamber of Commerce’s political forum Although Brewer didn’t Thursday.

Speakers voice support for Pioneer Way project

By JUSTIN BURNETT Staff reporter

Days after the SE Pioneer Way celebration, and just weeks before the November general election, Oak Harbor City Council and mayoral incumbents were confronted Oct. 18 with an unusually strong showing of public support at City Hall.

During public comment at the city council’s regular meeting that Tuesday, seven people took to the microphone to say how nice downtown looks, to offer their gratitude for the project and for the prior Saturday’s celebration.

Oak Harbor resident Coreen Lerch, who said she was there “on behalf of a lot of people who couldn’t make it,� thanked the city council, the mayor and the city’s “amazing staff� for all their hard work on the downtown project.

She specifically named City Engineer Eric Johnston, Engineers Larry Cort and Joe Stowell, and merchant liason Rhonda Severns for their efforts. “I’ve been a proponent of this the whole time and I just say kudos to you for following through, for taking the criticism, keeping a thick skin and not letting all that negativity get you down,�

Lerch said.

She went on to read a letter from Jennifer Bachmann, the owner of West Coast Style Co. In the letter, Bachmann claimed that Saturday’s activities resulted in her best day ever. Bachmann opened her downtown store last month.

Coolidge of Popsies Gourmet Popcorn & Specialty Sweet Shop, echoed Bachmann’s comments. “Popsies had the biggest day it’s ever had Saturday,�

Coolidge said.

Coolidge, who opened her sweets shop in 2006, said not everything about construction was horrible. She also said that while some merchants may have felt like project decisions should have been theirs to make, the work downtown is for all of Oak Harbor. “The fact is that street is going to be a great blessing, and comfort and gathering place for this whole community,� she said. “I think that’s a great thing.�

Merchants Kathy Collantes of Angelo’s Caffe, Bob Olson of Whidbey Wild Bird, and Naomi Schneider of Collage also took to the podium to offer their thanks for the project and Saturdays event in particular. “Not in 30 years have I felt that sense of community,�

Schneider said.

Jim Flowers, of Flowers Marine, said he also liked the new downtown and told Mayor Jim Slowik that he was fortunate to have such a progressive city council.

Although mistakes have been made, he said that’s just part of being “bold leaders.� “I guess I’m concerned there are even more mistakes in missed opportunities and worrying things to death,� Flowers said. “Sometimes you just got to do something.�

Even some project critics grudgingly offered compliments. Cecil Pierce made it

clear he was not a proponent of the one-way street design, but said he had to admit that it was a good event for downtown merchants. “I prefer the two-way,�

Pierce said. “But for the merchants of Oak Harbor, I think

Saturday was a great day.�

Shane Hoffmire said he also thought the community came together well Saturday but stopped short of offering up any praise to the mayor or the city council. A one-way supporter, Hoffmire said that

support was for businesses, not city leaders. It’s easy to be progressive when you’re spending taxpayers’ money, he said, and he’s looking forward to November. “I have a lot of faith in the electorate,� Hoffmire said.

CROCKETT CONTINUED FROM A1 Peterson specializes in cooking period food and is working on a mid-Victorian menu for the Crockett House.

Yet a recent resident of the house has several spooky stories.

Gordon Weeks, a former reporter in Coupeville, lived for about six months in the room where Charles Crockett killed himself. He reported a number of ghostly experiences, though he claims he was never frightened. In the bedroom at night he often caught movement out of the corner of his eye. One time the doors to the bathroom mysteriously swung open and another time the shades went up by themselves. “I felt like it was a benign presence,� he said. “I never felt like it was threatening.

All the peace and quiet could be thanks to the previous owners, Bob and Beulah Whitlow, who had the house purged of evil.

The Whitlows owned the Crockett Farm from 1984 until

2005 and ran the house as a bed and breakfast for most of those years. They hosted people from all over the world, including the likes of Danny DeVito, Kathleen Turner and Michael Douglas. “I still love the Crockett House,� said Bob Whitlow, who now lives in Coupeville with his wife. “It’s a wonderful place.�

But it was a very different house when they first moved in. It had fallen into disrepair after years of neglect. For years it had been sort of a crash pad and party house for hippies, though a local man lived in the house and kept it from being trashed. Out of that environment, stories of hauntings and strange happenings multiplied in the years before the Whitlows moved in.

Blood stain on the ceiling Whitlow, who described himself as a born-again Christian and a former Bible college president, said he never paid much attention to the stories. But then strange things started happening during the remodeling. Mostly,

Custom Stone Fabrication & Installation

he said it was a feeling of an “unpleasant presence.� When he was upstairs he often found himself suddenly turning around to see if someone was following him.

Once, Whitlow needed to go upstairs to retrieve an item, but something inexplicable stopped him. “At the bottom of the stairs I had this real strange feeling,� he said. “I thought, I don’t want to go up there.�

Later, he gave a tour of the house to a group of women.

They stopped in the upstairs bedroom where Charles Crockett had killed himself.

As they left, the glass fell with a crash out of the pane of a broken window. “I about had a stampede of women on my hands,� he said. “It was really frightening.�

Even more eerie, the Whitlows discovered a handsized blood stain on the ceiling in a downstairs bedroom. As Whitlow explained, Charles Crockett shot himself with a pistol in his bedroom while his brother was away visiting relatives in Everett.

His blood drenched the floor boards and pooled on the ceiling below.

Charles Crockett and his brother Walter Crockett, Jr., lived in the house together, but Charles had suffered from

mental health problems. “He had a fear of becoming permanently insane and preferred death to the insane asylum,� Walter wrote in a letter to his sister after the death.

Beulah Whitlow has a copy of the letter.

‘Restless spirit’ gets cleansed Whitlow said he doesn’t believe in the ghosts of Halloween lore, but as a Christian he knows “there are demonstrations of demonic forces.� At the time, the couple had friends in Seattle who did home blessings and home “cleansings.� “They called us. They said, ‘We feel there is a restless spirit upstairs and it needs to be cleansed,� he said.

Whitlow explained that the woman anointed each door and window in the house with oil during the ceremony. At one point, she appeared to be chasing an unseen intruder around the house, telling it to leave.

Afterward, she was so tired she didn’t have the energy to cleanse the barn.

But it worked, Whitlow said. “Something changed that day. There was a spirit of

rest in that house,� he said. “People would say, ‘We just love to come here. This house is just full of peace.’�

The Whitlows emphasize that the cleansing took place before the bed and breakfast opened. None of their guests ever reported experiencing anything but heavenly tranquility.

As for Spina, she’s undecided about the presence of a poltergeist in the historic house. She has no plans for a seance in the house, though she would like to have a big Halloween bash someday. “We’re always hoping for visits from former residents,� she said. “Charles Crockett is always welcome.�

North Whidbey robbery case fades to trespass

By JESSIE STENSLAND Staff reporter

The case against an Oak Harbor man accused of committing a home-invasion robbery on North Whidbey last April fell apart, according to the Island County Prosecutor’s Office.

The suspect, 48-year-old Richard Weatherford, has consistently maintained that deputies nabbed the wrong guy. Senior Deputy Prosecutor Eric Ohme said he didn’t have the evidence to prove the charges beyond a reasonable doubt.

As a result, the two sides came to a plea agreement.

Weatherford pleaded guilty by way of an Alford’s plea to criminal trespass in the first degree and assault in the fourth degree. An Alford’s plea means that Weatherford doesn’t admit his guilt, but acknowledges that the prosecution has enough evidence to persuade a jury to convict him.

The judge agreed with

the joint sentence recommendation and sentenced him to 364 days, with 273 suspended, for a total of 91 days in jail.

Weatherford was identified by a victim of the April 11 robbery. North Whidbey resident Jacob Woessner was lying in bed with a woman when two suspects broke the door down and came into the bedroom.

Both suspects were wearing red bandanas over their faces and one wore sunglasses; one man was armed with a hammer and the other had a screwdriver.

The two robbers demanded that the couple give them everything, but instead Woessner jumped up and punched one of the robbers in the face. He claimed he pulled off the robber’s bandana during a tussle and recognized him as Weatherford.

The two robbers eventually fled the residence in a

Richard Weatherford Jeep Cherokee, dragging Woessner as he tried to pull one of the robbers from the passenger seat.

Ohme admitted there were a lot of problems with the case. The female victim has made herself unavailable. The second robber was never identified.

Also, Woessner didn’t call the police for an hour or two after the robbery, making it

difficult for investigators to pin down the time the crime occurred.

Weatherford has two alibi witness who claimed he was watching TV and drinking coffee at the time of the robbery.

Woessner was cooperative, Ohme said, but he had previously been convicted of misdemeanor theft, which could be used to impeach him at trial.

Ohme said investigators couldn’t figure out any motive for the robbery. He said Woessner didn’t have

anything to steal.

Also, Woessner busted his hand punching the robber in the face, but Weatherford didn’t appear to have injuries.

Ohme said he had pinned his hopes on DNA tests on a pair of sunglasses Weatherford allegedly left at the scene. But the results came back inconclusive. “Based on all the problems,� Ohme said, “I didn’t think I could prove robbery beyond a reasonable doubt.�

WWW.WHIDBEYNEWSTIMES.COM

IN OUR OPINION

Every day is Halloween Halloween used to be a special time of year, aimed mostly at scaring kids and allowing the latter to do a little mischief, such as tipping cows and egging cars, without the risk of spending time in the juvenile detention center followed by months of counseling and decades of worrying that your criminal background might be found out if you decide to run for president.

Scary was unusual in those days, so one night a year little ghosts, goblins, pirates and princesses roamed the neighborhoods, knocking on doors where friendly neighbors would give them candy. Kids didn’t have to run a gamut of howling wolves with flashing red eyes, grinning skulls, screeching witches, smoke-belching gargoyles and other lawn ornaments just to reach the door to be greeted by a pretend maniac holding out an empty rubber head filled with mini-Snickers.

Terror is so prevalent these days that the imitation kind on Halloween, no matter how gruesome, hardly scares anyone. The really scary stuff we see every day on TV, or every five seconds on the Web. The European economy is about to collapse, taking the world down with it. We’re all going to starve to death in our cars, gas gauges on empty.

Every revolution in every two-bit country is covered in horrifying detail, and TV crews roam for hundreds of miles around the central downtown station to find stories revolting enough to show the family audience at dinner time: Murder, torture, rape and robbery help the Kraft macaroni dinner go down so much easier.

At the movies, we’ve gone from campy Frankenstein and Werewolf tales to chainsaw massacres of young people in various stages of undress. Cable TV makes heroes of serial killers, serial fornicators and serial smokers.

Now broadcast TV is branching out to feature teenage werewolves and vampires, sucking the blood out of one another between iPhone app commercials. Entertainment shows that once featured movie-land tramps now lead with the baby killer of the week.

Perhaps the constant horror is why Halloween is becoming one of our biggest holidays in terms of sales and partying. It’s a distraction from the real world which is far more frightening.

In Oak Harbor, Fright Night XI is taking place each night through Halloween at the Roller Barn, raising money for the Boys and Girls Club with a variety of horrifying sets. We recommend you go for a scary good time that benefits the community. Just don’t watch the nightly news first. Anything after that is bound to be a letdown.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR -BNPOU OFFEFE PO GJSF CPBSE We need T.J. Lamont as commissioner for North Whidbey Fire and Rescue.

We need someone who will do what he says after he is in office. Lamont has a proven record of supporting the taxpayer and keeping the expenses down. With the current economy we need someone who will vote against raising our taxes! He did just that!

We need someone who will vote against spending our taxes for needless training facilities that won’t help the public when we call 911.

I agree with his priorities.

T.J. Lamont wants to provide the best emergency service to the public that we can afford. He will put the money where it will support the taxpayers the best: firefighting and response equipment.

That’s what will show up at my door in an emergency when I call 911, not a huge expensive fire station or an extravagant office building.

We need to keep Lamont.

He has the right priorities: the taxpayer!

$IJFG -BSSZ GJU GPS CPBSE I am writing to the voters of North Whidbey Fire and Rescue. It is time for taxpayers to elect a new voice to the fire district board and that voice is Larry Wall.

Larry Wall is a believer in the principles of community service. He has spent the last 32 years in volunteer service to North Whidbey Fire and Rescue, his last position being emergency medical service chief.

Oak Harbor Mayoral candidates Scott Dudley and Jim Slowik at a recent political forum.

PDC CONTINUED FROM A1 city resident Donald Boyer, three handouts totaling $600 from Dr. R.O. and Janette Ellis, $100 from retired Navy Admiral Lyle Bull, and $200 from retired pastor David Lura.

As for Dudley, the largest contribution of his campaign was made by Don Howat of Blue Mountain Electric with $600. Harman Patrick, listed under PDC records as retired, pitched $500 as did RMJ N.W. Investment LLC and Ron Wallin of P & L General Contractors Inc. Wallin is also a Whidbey General Hospital commissioner.

Harbor Lands Co. also donated a total of $500 but did so in three separate increments. Other contributing businesses include $250 from Skagit Island Builders PAC, $175 from Anita Anderson – also in increments – and $150 from Edward Johnson, both of whom are with Island Brokers Realty.

Dudley’s campaign manager, Sandi Peterson, also contributed with two checks totaling $370.

The mayoral hopeful also saw financial support from four senior officers with the Oak Harbor Police Department. Detective Sgt. Teri Gardner made three contributions totaling $225, Lt. Tim Sterkel also made three totaling $240, Detective Carl Sein made two totaling $170, and officer Mel Lolmaugh contributed $50.

Past and current elected officials also contributed to Dudley’s campaign. Present Oak Harbor City Councilman Jim Campbell wrote two checks totaling $150 and former Councilman Fred Henniger donated $100.

Finally, Dudley received sums from two political leaders. Robyn Kolaitis, chairwoman of the Republican

Women’s Club of North Whidbey, pitched a collective $140 and Brett Wilhelm, chairman of the Island County Republican Party, contributed $100.

The mayor’s race is nonpartisan but both candidates are known Republicans.

Wilhelm said his donation was not an endorsement; he contributed because he was asked and he wanted to encourage campaigns to seek financial support from the community.

Although Slowik has clearly come out on top when it comes to financial support, both in total contributions and the number of people who donated, it may not prove to be the real muscle in the mayor’s race.

While Slowik has invested in expensive campaign tactics, such as commercials on cable television, Dudley has spent his time aggressively door-belling. By Dudley’s estimate, he’s visited 90 percent of Oak Harbor homes. “If we were all about fundraising, you would have seen a different campaign,� said Dudley, adding that the numbers would have been more comparable.

He’s also pretty optimistic about election day Nov. 8, claiming that his confidence isn’t just empty bravado but based on the response he’s gotten on door steps.

Dudley’s door-belling campaign has even earned him a nod from Slowik. The mayor said he had to give his competitor credit for his efforts and that he’d be “foolish� to discount the power a personal visit carries with voters. He said he’d have done more of it himself but that he’s been too busy. “It’s not about money, it’s not about signs, it’s about votes,� Slowik said.

However, while Slowik believes it will be a close race, he also thinks he’ll be the one celebrating with friends on Nov. 8.

Anthony and Seann Powell, Boy Scouts from Troop 4058 in Coupeville, attended the Oct. 11 Town Council meeting to achieve requirements needed for their citizenship, community and communications merit badges. They saw the council approve an ordinance to lower the speed limit on Highway 20 through Coupeville and appoint Larry Cort to the council to fill a vacancy.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR A great day for Island County This letter is a thank you to Martha Rose and her Island Transit staff for their tireless efforts on behalf of Island County.

Quoting from the Whidbey News-Times: “A $17.9 million federal grant will enable Island Transit to replace its inadequate transit facility with a new base of operations in Coupeville that will include a maintenance facility, bus washing and fueling facilities, and an administration and operations facility.�

The long term commitment Island Transit has made to all Island County residents is a commitment that goes all the way back to 1983, and gained real strength in 1987, when fixed route service commenced. Grant money is always extremely difficult to obtain, and the sustained efforts Island Transit have made since 1997 have accomplished a worthy goal: Improve the overall operations of Island Transit well into the future.

Quoting Senator Mary

Margaret Haugen: “This project will serve Island County riders for generations to come, and it will bring jobs and revenue into Island County right when we need them the most.�

As many of you know, long term economic development is difficult to come by on Whidbey Island. The Navy base and tourism provide many of our jobs, but not all of them. Workers and job seekers can depend on Island Transit to get them to work and job interviews. Students, commuters, senior citizens, the handicapped – all are served by, and benefit from Island Transit services.

And this smart economic development has never come at the cost of our unique Whidbey Island environment, heritage, or natural resources.

OBITUARIES

Barbara Buescher

Barbara Wellings Soame Buescher Barbara Wellings Soame Buescher of Coupeville passed away peacefully on Oct. 18, 2011, at the age of 85 surrounded by those she loved. She was born March 16, 1926 in Oxford, England, the only child of Esther and Reginald Soame. She settled in the United States in 1938, after traveling between England and the U.S.A. on many trans-Atlantic voyages on the Queen Mary accompanied by her nanny and her beloved Teddy Bear “Teddy Snowflake.�

She moved to San Francisco during World War II and in 1946 met and married the love of her life, her husband, Lt. Colonel Edward White Buescher, who predeceased her in death in 1982.

Barbara had lived in Coupeville since 2000 when she bought the Historic “Griffith House.� Prior to 2000 she traveled extensively all around the world, including solo trips on the Siberian Express through Russia and China, travels through Eastern Africa and many travels to Europe to her beloved England. During these years Barbara split her time between homes, living half the year in England or Italy.

Barbara is survived by her four children, daughter Cynthia B. Merrill and her husband, William B. Merrill of Newport, R.I., daughter Mimi S. Buescher and her husband Craig A. Platt of Coupeville, son Henry S. Buescher of Wellington, N.Z., and son, Colonel Christopher R. Buescher, USMC (Ret.) and his wife, Tracey L. Buescher, of Pleasanton, Calif.; her six grandchildren, Jessie M. Merrill, William B. Merrill, III, Alexandra E. Platt, Tobe E. Platt, Olivia C. Buescher and Krista N. Buescher; and her two devoted felines, Susie and Jake.

As she wished, a celebration of her life was held in her honor at her home and attended by her family and close friends. Barbara will be laid to rest with Military Honors next to her husband at Arlington National Cemetery in Washington, D.C. Family and friends may sign an online registry and leave notes at www.burleyfuneralchapel.com.

Card of thanks The Martha Youngsman family wishes to thank the wonderful nurses at Whidbey

General Hospital CCU for their compassion and care for Martha. Special thanks to Judy G., Janet, Ann M. and Linda K. for making a very difficult time so much easier because of your kindness.

Thanks so much ... And to Island Transit for the many years of caring for our mother and for Steve who notified the family that something was wrong with Martha. And to Gary at Wallin Funeral Home and to Pastor Jon Brown, First Reformed Church, for such caring for the family during our time of loss. The Families of Marthella & Earl Ayersman, John Youngsman and Donna & Gary Friend.

William Wilson

William K. Wilson William K. Wilson was born in Mount Desert, ME, on June 10, 1932, to Arlene and Bill Wilson. He lost his battle with lung cancer on Thursday, Oct. 20, 2011.

Willie leaves behind his wife Judy; five children, Cynthia Parks (Danny), Steven Wilson (Jane),

Michelle Coughlan, Nicole Wilson and David Wilson; five grandchildren, Michael Parks (Christine/Sweetness), Jacob Wilson, Jolene Wilson (Kenny), Shawn Coughlan (Maebe), Danielle Coughlan and Leila Walton; eight greatgrandchildren, Taylor and Haley Parks, Christian and Casey Wilson, Halle and Kalyn Coughlan and Perry and Nevaeh Coughlan.

Willie grew up in and around Fitchburg, MA. At age 16, he joined Ringling Brothers/Barnum & Bailey Circus as a caregiver to the elephants. At age 17 he joined the U.S. Navy and served his country proudly for 20 years, retiring in 1970. After retiring he continued serving as a bartender for the CPO Club in Alameda, Calif. In 1977, he went back to work for the government, and was employed for the Naval Air Rework Facility in Alameda.

He thus returned to the occupation that he spent the majority of his life perfecting and teaching others the repair of the aircraft of the U.S. Navy.

Although Willie came across to those who did not know him well as a gruff, unpolished stone, those who did know him knew he’d give the shirt off his back if they needed it. For those of us that loved him so deeply, he will always be in our hearts.

Fair Winds and Smooth Seas, Dad/Papa.

We love you!

A gathering was held at the family home in his memory. Family and friends are encouraged to share memories and extend condolences at www.whidbeymemorial. com.

Oak Harbor runs at the district cross country meet today at South Whidbey High School at 12:10 p.m.

Completing an impressive run through the second half of the Cascade Conference schedule with a 3-0 win at Lakewood Tuesday, Oct. 25, the Coupeville High School volleyball team journeys to Lynden Christian High School for the district tournament today, Oct. 29.

The Wolves open tournament play at 11 a.m. against Meridian (5-9).

If Coupeville survives the first-round, elimination match, it will advance to the doubleelimination portion of the tournament and need to win one of its next two matches to qualify for tri-district.

After struggling with several close losses early in the year and a 2-5 record the first time through the conference slate, Coupeville went 5-2 in the second round.

Are the Wolves (7-7, 8-7) peaking at the right time as they head to the playoffs? Coach Toni Crebbin said, “I think so.

It feels good.�

In the 25-18, 25-19, 25-20 win over Lakewood (6-8), Crebbin credited the blocking of Makenna Martyn and Bessie Walstad with slowing Lakewood’s power game.

Katie Smith rapped nine kills for Coupeville, and Martyn and Ali Trumbull added five each.

Walstad recorded 16 digs, and Taya Boonstra dished out 20 assists.

A$BUT XJO IPTU EJTUSJDU NBUDI The Oak Harbor High School volleyball team polished up its play for the district tournament by brushing aside host Everett 3-0 in the final regular-season match Wednesday, Oct. 26.

By a quirk in the schedule, Oak Harbor

(9-2, 10-4) will meet Everett (4-7, 7-7) again in the first round of district on the Wildcats’ court Monday, Oct. 31, at 5 p.m.

Lynnwood (8-4) and Ferndale (8-5) will also play in Oak Harbor Monday. The winners and losers will pair up at 7 p.m. in the eight-team, double-elimination tournament.

In the win over Everett 25-15, 25-14, 26-24, Taylor Nienhuis handed out 26 assists as Kayleigh Harper recorded 11 kills, Roshel Muzzall eight and Janine DeGuzman seven.

Harper added three blocks, Muzzall 14 digs and DeGuzman four aces and 13 digs.

Christina Alexander and Amanda Pavey each had 10 digs.

Coach Kerri Molitor said, “I think Everett will be tough on Monday.

We have to be prepared mentally; any past matches -- wins or losses -- make no difference now.�

$PVQFWJMMF MPTFT QMBZPGG NBUDI Meridian’s onslaught of shots finally paid off in two second-half goals as the Trojans defeated Coupeville 2-0 Wednesday, Oct. 26, at Mickey Clark Field and eliminated the Wolves from district play.

Meridian (9-8) dominated the match and fired 32 shots at Wolf goalkeeper Grace LaPoint, finally looping one over her head from 20 yards out in the 55th minute.

The Trojans tacked on a second score on a breakaway with 7:35 left in the match.

LaPoint finished with 17 saves.

Coupeville failed to amount an offensive attack and produced only two soft shots, one each half, in the match.

In round two, Lamb lost to familiar foe Sandro Meyer of Friday Harbor 2-6, 1-6. The pair split four matches earlier this spring.

The Seagulls (15-0-1) are “the real deal,� according to Wildcat coach Jeff Laiblin; they have “speed, strength and size.�

Oak Harbor, missing five players because of injuries, tried a “defensive style at first,� Laiblin said.

In the second half the ‘Cats tried to “push forward but ended up giving up some ugly goals,� he added.

It was tough season for Oak Harbor (0-133), but the future looks promising, Laiblin said, as his club loses only three players to graduation.

Monday’s tryout begins at 1:45 p.m. and Tuesday’s at 2:45 p.m.

As advertised.

The much touted Meadowdale defense matched its billing as it shut down the high-energy Oak Harbor offense in the second half and led the Mavericks to a 34-17 win at Edmonds District Stadium Thursday, Oct. 27.

The win earned undefeated and fifth-ranked Meadowdale (8-0, 9-0) the Western Conference championship and handed seventh-ranked Oak Harbor (7-1, 8-1) its first defeat of 2011 in the regular season finale for both schools.

Now it’s on to the playoffs. Oak Harbor hosts Eastside Catholic Friday, Nov. 4, at Wildcat Memorial Stadium at 7 p.m. in the district cross-over play-in round.

Meadowdale entered the game with the conference’s top defense, allowing only eight points per game. Oak Harbor came in averaging 51. Something had to give and the Mavericks didn’t.

The Wildcats led 17-14 at the break but managed only 35 yards of offense in the second half.

Oak Harbor coach Jay Turner said the Meadowdale D was “better in person than on film.�

The game turned in the third quarter. With Meadowdale leading 21-17, Oak Harbor was facing a fourth-and-11 at its own 27. A missed blocking assignment blew up a fake punt and Josiah Miller was thrown for a 9-yard loss.

The Mavs took over and scored two plays later.

Turner said, “That’s on me.

We weren’t moving the ball and I thought it would get the momentum back.�

On Meadowdale’s first possession of the game, Casey Ferguson sacked Maverick QB Brian Marty and forced a fumble recovered by Josh McVey, and the ‘Cats took over at the Meadowdale 46.

Miller scored on a 21-yard run, Peter Franssen kicked the point after and Oak Harbor led 7-0.

Meadowdale, like Oak Harbor, is a run-first team, but two passes

by Marty proved pivotal.

Students may pick up tryout packets at the high school athletic office. The completed paperwork must be submitted to the athletic office for approval no later than Monday morning, Nov. 7.

Requirements for tryouts include current physical on file, passing all classes and teacher recommendations.

A parent/student informational meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, Nov. 1, at 6 p.m. in the OHHS fieldhouse.

For more information, contact coach Robin Gohn at gohn1983@comcast.net.

The first came when Meadowdale was sitting third-and-20. Marty hit Ryan White for 46 yards at the OH 12, setting up the tying touchdown.

The ‘Cats regained the lead on Franssen’s 31-yard field goal, set up by Brent Ryan’s 36-yard run.

After a short punt and good return, Meadowdale had the ball at the Oak Harbor 31. In two plays, the Mavericks led 14-10.

Oak Harbor went 70 yards in just over two minutes to score with four seconds left in the half on an Ian Kolste’s 15-yard pass to Mike Washington. Oak Harbor led 17-14.

The second half was all Meadowdale. Oak Harbor had only four first downs and two of those came off penalties.

Marty struck again on the Mavericks’ first possession of the third quarter, hitting Kyler Larsen on a 44-yard bomb that put Meadowdale up for good.

Marty threw just five passes, but hit four for 100 yards.

Oak Harbor was forced to throw in the second half and didn’t get the same results. Kolste misfired on all seven of his attempts, finishing 4-for-13 for 42 yards.

Miller and Ryan, the two-headed engine of the Oak Harbor offense, had solid, but not spectacular, nights. Miller ran for 89 yards on 16 carries and scored one touchdown.

Ryan picked up 111 yards on 20 carries.

As a team, Oak Harbor finished with 193 yards rushing and 206 total yards.

Meadowdale racked up 403 yards.

Turner said, “I thought we played well in the first half. But when they (Meadowdale) needed to make plays, they did. We didn’t.�

Eastside Catholic from Sammamish will provide a stiff test for the Wildcats. The Crusaders are 6-3, but all three loses came to team’s ranked in the state’s top 10, including a 20-19 loss to thirdranked and undefeated O’Dea.

Gideons hand out free hope FAITHFUL LIVING

By JOAN BAY KLOPE

I learned about two years ago that texting is a great way to communicate with older kids. It’s less disruptive for them to receive a quick message than a call if they’re busy. It also cuts to the heart of conversation.

My favorite texting exchange of the week goes to my son Dan, a college sophomore. Our conversation went like this: Dan: I ran into a Gideon, today. Haha.

Me: Did you take a Bible? They are a good group of men. Salt of the earth.

Dan: I did take a Bible. He was standing in the rain and he reminded me of our friend Bob so I had to. And if I take one I can flash it to the other guys so I don’t seem like I’m rejecting them.

Me: Was it green or orange? And have you read Psalms lately? Good stuff when feeling frustrated about life.

Dan: They are green, handed out by super old guys. They’re great!

Me: Amazing. Cold and wet for Jesus. Now that’s dedication!

They certainly stand out: impeccably-dressed retirees, usually positioned in high traffic areas where people come and go. How easy it was for me to imagine the team at Dan’s university, a cleanshaven, smartly suited group with genuine smiles and small green books in their hands.

Members of Gideons International are always dressed to serve their King and quietly appear for no other reason than to place into our hands God’s words of love, as found in the New Testament, Psalms and Proverbs. The materials are always pocket-sized and free. The men are polite and enlist no religious rhetoric, pressure, or coercion.

It’s what Gideons International is all about: making Scripture available to everyone by standing in the human traffic lanes of life. What you do with God’s Word and how you respond is up to you.

Founded in 1899, Gideons International serves as a missionary arm of the church and is the oldest Christian business and professional men’s organization in the United States. This year an international board of Christian laymen will oversee the distribution of Bibles in 179 countries and in 82 languages, making use of 140,000 volunteers who will pass out one Bible every two seconds.

As I imagined Dan talking with a Gideon, I was reminded of a sweet exchange a couple of years ago. “Beautiful day! Might you be interested in receiving a free New Testament?� I was asked. Their approach was as simple and sweet as that. “You can keep it in the glove compartment of your car and it fits great in the pocket of a kid’s backpack!�

I was additionally informed. I could even have more than one as there were plenty to go around.

Outstretched hands and glad smiles. Short, sunny interchanges even on rainy days. Generations gently touching for brief moments in ways that seem too easy. That’s because it can be. In spite of their formal appearances, Gideon volunteers are able to pass out New Testaments filled with God’s message to us all: His love is for everyone.

Glass art unites father, daughter

By REBECCA OLSON Staff reporter

The light shifting over Clark Donnell’s wavy-edged blown glass vases and bowls seems to transform the pieces into slices of the sea that inspired them. But one person is happy to see such a creation break before completion: Clark Donnell’s daughter, Kelsea Donnell.

Kelsea uses the broken glass for her own profitable art, fused glass jewelry.

She’s made hundreds of brightly colored pendants of every hue and design, from whimsical flower shapes to modern silver geometrics to classy red stripes. She sells necklaces, earrings, bracelets, customorder keychains and more via Kelsea’s Creations by the Sea. Together, Clark and Kelsea will be the featured artists at Garry Oak Gallery for November. They’ll host the gallery’s First Friday event on Nov. 4 from 5 to 8 p.m.

Clark has been creating blown glass pieces for seven years, after spending 23 years in the banking industry. Kelsea started fusing glass a year or two after that and has become one of the best sellers at Garry Oak Gallery. Her jewelry is also sold in California, Arizona, Minnesota, Michigan and Hawaii.

Sitting at a table layered with inspiration, broken glass of every color and plenty of creativity, Kelsea enjoys a view of Oak Harbor’s water out the window.

To create fused glass pendants, Kelsea vertically stacks rough-edged chunks of broken glass and stringers, which are long, thin rods of glass, with clear glass to form a design. Then she places them in a kiln and the rough edges melt away, forming a smooth pendant.

Clark and others at his workshop give Kelsea their scrap glass. “I like it when they break pieces,�

Kelsea said, smiling. “Somebody’s always happy one way or another,� Clark said.

Since broken glass has little use, Kelsea found a way to be creative inexpensively. “She’s found a way to recycle.

Otherwise, they would be hauling it to the dump and she’s found how to make it beautiful,� said Kelsea’s mom, Joan.

A friend convinced Clark to start glass blowing because he’d taught himself how to make stained glass windows for their previous house. “It’s a long learning curve on blown

Father and daughter artist duo Clark and Kelsea Donnell are the November featured artists at Garry Oak Gallery. Clark will bring his blown glass, like the sea-inspired pieces in the background, and Kelsea will bring her fused glass pendants. glass,� Clark said, noting the physical work of holding up more than 100 pounds of glass on the end of a steel pipe. Glass blowing is a two- or three-person job, especially with the larger-sized pieces Clark makes.

To begin, Clark blows into a pipe to shape molten clear glass on the end.

Although the glass is clear, it’s so hot that it glows orange. “I have to keep spinning it so it doesn’t just drip off like honey on the floor -which is does sometimes,� Clark said with a laugh.

He shapes, cools and blows the initial bubble. Dealing with an oven at 2,500 degrees is sweat-inducing work.

To add color, Clark can roll the glass in frit, finely crushed glass, or drip molten colored glass over the top of the clear glass. He has achieved blues and teals that gleam like the ocean, mottled reds and golds, stripes and anything his creativity can imagine.

Symmetry is difficult so Clark often makes wavy-edged designs and vases with uneven edges. “I really like the random nature of something that’s more natural,� Clark said.

Clark has donated numerous pieces to local groups for auctions, including the

Rotary Club, Soroptimist International of Oak Harbor, the Boys and Girls Club and the Oak Harbor Christian School. He also does commissioned pieces and has many clients outside of Washington.

Kelsea holds jewelry parties and she does custom orders. To set one up, contact her at 675-3041 or creationsbythesea@yahoo.com.

At the gallery, they’ll display their latest experiments alongside many other pieces.

Kelsea has recently been experimenting with making cuff links. “I think more and more guys want something so I’m starting to do things for guys -- I didn’t think I’d ever do that,�

Kelsea said.

Clark’s latest experiment has been creating wine aerators because he wanted to make something more affordable than his larger pieces. Shaped with a smaller sphere on top of a larger sphere, they fit into the tops of carafes and decanters to expose wine to more oxygen while pouring.

Meals for seniors hiked in Coupeville

BY NATHAN WHALEN Staff reporter

In hopes of providing a healthy meal to more senior citizens, a countywide meals program is scheduled to expand next month.

Senior Services of Island County is partnering with the Coupeville United Methodist Church, the town of Coupeville and the Coupeville Lions Club to offer a new program that will begin in early November.

The program, called “Lunch and More,� will offer one meal a week for the senior citizens. “We looked for a way to provide more access to more seniors in the Coupeville community,� said Cheryn Weiser, executive director of Senior Services of Island County, which is a nonprofit organization not affiliated with Island County.

Senior Services currently offers a meal program at Cam-Bey senior apartments; however space is limited, especially if the complex’s residents decide to enjoy a meal and learn about important services for the island’s

senior citizens. So officials decided to offer a second meal program in Coupeville. “I call it a model attempt of a mobile senior services in Coupeville,� Mayor Nancy Conard said during a recent Town Council meeting.

The Coupeville Lions Club is providing volunteer and financial support for the program while the Methodist Church is providing space.

Senior Services of Island County will offer additional meal programs in six locations throughout Island County once the service is established at the Methodist Church. Other locations are the Whidbey Evangelical Free Church, Brookhaven, Cam-Bey, the Oak Harbor Senior Center and the Camano Community Center.

Senior Services of Island County served almost 90,000 meals in 2010.

The organization plans to start off offering one hot meal a week served on Wednesdays. In addition, there will be a chance to educate folks about the services offered by Senior Services, which also includes

Sherrie Baker, meal site manager for Senior Services of Island County, serves lunch for folks at Cam-Bey apartments. Officials decided to offer a second meal site in Coupeville that starts in early November.

Meals on Wheels, housing help and adult day services. Entertainment will also be offered during the meal times, but the details still have to be finalized.

To eat a meal at the Methodist Church, Weiser said a person should make a suggested donation of $3.50, which is less than half the $8.13 needed to prepare each meal.

If demand for the meals increases, then senior servic-

es will add additional days.

Island County Senior Services is not a county agency and is funded through the Northwest Regional Council, federal dollars and through its own fundraising efforts.

Volunteers are being sought to provide entertainment during the meals.

To get involved, call Senior Services of Island County at 360-321-1600.

Autumn is the peak season for influenza, so...

Penn Cove Grange will be hosting the Small Agriculture Producer Caucus on Saturday, Nov. 5 at noon, at 180 Parker Road just south of Coupeville, the old pheasant farm. “We are excited to host this group on their first visit to Whidbey Island,� said Penn Cove Master Bob Cadwallader. “This is an opportunity for various small agricultural producers, and other interested parties, to learn about preserving the remaining small, sustainable farms on Whidbey Island.�

The event will feature speakers from the Small Agriculture Producers Caucus on how they are working to preserve small farm agriculture in their communities across the state.

Penn Cove Grange is the local affiliate of

the Washington State Grange. It was recently organized to support agriculture in the North and Central Whidbey Island Communities. Deer Lagoon Grange in Langley is also helping with this event.

Rusty Hunt from the Washington State Grange Membership Team will be speaking on how the grange is working to help the small agriculture producer. In June, the Washington State Grange adopted the position that it will “pursue an active role as an advocate for small agricultural producers in their dealings with government entities.�

For some time, the grange has assisted small agricultural producers in the legislative arena, lobbying for the small farm.

Bellingham resident Ian Steger and Grimsby, England, resident Paul Everitt are pedaling a quadracycle to Mexico.

Drivers speeding down Highway 20 on Whidbey Island slowed to stare at two people riding something different.

The pair were riding recently in a quadracycle, a four-wheeled pedal-powered machine that seats two people and a cargo carrier on the back.

For one of the riders, the trek down part of Whidbey Island was the latest stop in a journey that stretched for thousands of miles. Paul Everitt, 28, from Grimsby, England, started riding his four-wheeled contraption in Halifax, Nova Scotia, April 29 and traveled across Canada to Victoria, before beginning his trek down the West Coast of the United States. “I needed a bigger challenge, so I thought I’d ride across Canada,� Everitt said earlier this month while taking a quick break near San de Fuca. Prior to his current adventure, he rode his quadracycle, which he designed and built, across Europe.

He only recently started

cycling in the United States.

While in Bellingham, he picked up a passenger, 29-year-old Ian Steger, a friend he met in New Zealand several years ago. Steger spent several days pedaling with Everitt before returning to his job in Bellingham.

Steger and Everitt traveled on the shoulder of Highway 20 on their way to the Port Townsend ferry. From there, they planned to ride on Highway 101 toward Mexico.

He has a website, www. going-solo.co.uk, established to document his journey. In addition to highlighting his travels, he also has links established allowing people to donate to veterans’ assistance organizations — the Wounded Warrior Project in the United States, the Wounded Warrior in Canada, and Help for Heroes of the United Kingdom. He was inspired to raise money for wounded soldiers by his friend who serves in the armed forces in the United Kingdom.

Everitt said he prefers the four-wheeled machine to a bicycle. It has been a spark for conversations in the towns

he’s visited which has made for a more enjoyable journey. “It opens you up to things you normally don’t see. It seems to capture people’s hearts,� Everitt said.

Meanwhile, he continues his travel down the West Coast. He said he doesn’t have a set schedule and is open to suggestions from anyone he encounters. Everitt does have a deadline, though. He wants to cross into Mexico in January; that’s when his visa expires.

He is already thinking about his next journey. Instead of a quadracycle, he said he hopes to use a raft, which he will use to sail down the Mississippi River, “Huck Finn-style.�
