Murder of pizza We did it shop co-owner shocks Freeland Husband held on $5 million bail By JESSIE STENSLAND Staff reporter
Greenbank resident Kathie Baker was hit in the head, possibly with a ball-peen hammer, and strangled with a ligature before her body was wrapped in a tarp and dumped in a ravine, according to court records. Her husband, 61-year-old Robert “Al” Baker, was arrested Saturday in connection with the brutal and bizarre case. A judge in Island County Superior Court set his bail at $5 million Monday after finding that there’s probable cause to believe he committed first-degree murder. The couple owns Harbor Pizzeria in Freeland and were known to work there together since opening it last year. They both also worked for Raytheon Corporation, a major defense contractor. Senior Deputy Prosecutor Eric Ohme said in court Robert ‘Al’ Baker that Al Baker is a scientist and travels internationally through his work, including spending part of each year in Antarctica. Detective Ed Wallace with the Island County Sheriff’s Office said Kathie Baker was last seen alive on June 2. Investigators discovered her tarp-covered body in a ravine in her backyard June 9. Island County Sheriff Mark Brown praised his deputies and detectives for quickly getting to the bottom of the mysterious disappearance, but he said they are scratching their heads at the unusual facts of the case. The Bakers appeared to be a happy couple and it seemed that little effort was made to clean up after the murder. “It just doesn’t make a lot of sense,” he said. Kathie, 53, was a high-level computer programmer and telecommuted from her home on Silver Cloud Lane in Greenbank. Kathie’s boss at Raytheon reported to police on June 7 that he couldn’t contact her and asked for a welfare check. Deputies went to the Bakers’ home and spoke to Al Baker, who claimed his wife had flown to Denver for her job; he said he dropped her off at the airport June 3. But a deputy again contacted her boss, who said she wasn’t see murder, page a10

Students sing praises of South Whidbey ‘home’ BY BEN WATANABE Staff reporter
LANGLEY — No matter where they go and who they become, the South Whidbey High School class of 2012 can always come home. And home will always be on Whidbey Island. In a gym packed with friends and family at the high school, 127 South Whidbey graduates smiled, sang, laughed and gazed, seemingly awestruck, during the ceremony. The South Whidbey class of 2012 is headed all over the state and
country in pursuit of its myriad passions such as music, biology, business, robotics, automotive mechanics, sports and creative writing. “You are talented, you are risk takers,” said South Whidbey High School Principal John Patton. “You are leaders, and you will change the world.” For all the time spent talking about what lies ahead of the graduates, the safety of South Whidbey’s shores — home — was equally audible. “Whatever path you
choose, remember one thing: This is your home,” said Patton, who is finishing his first year as the principal after several years as an assistant principal at South Whidbey. Home was so pervasive a topic, it became a bit obtuse, though no less galvanizing, when a group of grads sang a song entitled “Home.” A host of students clambered down from the stage and grabbed a saxophone, a piano, a guitar, a tambourine, a bass drum, a cello and microphones. Sung by
Amy Arand, Zach Comfort, Dinah Hassrick, Sommer Harris, Sidney Hauser, Sam Lee, Will Mellish, Athena Michaelides and Jenny Zisette, the popular song by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros drew the remaining 120 grads to join in the chorus: “Home, let me come home. Home is wherever I’m with you.” Comfort earlier in the ceremony recited a poem he wrote as the students’ choice speaker. He spoke about the See students, A13

kudos Robotics student heads to Florida After a disappointing finish at the regional robotics competition, South Whidbey’s Team Atlantis, Inc. robotics team member Hannah McConnaughey will compete at the international level, after all. Team Atlantis, Inc., missed out on a trip to the international competition in Orlando, Fla. A fuse blew on its remotely operated vehicle during a recent regional robotics competition, sinking Team Atlantis’ hopes. However, when the finalist Honolulu, Hawaii team saw the awardwinning poster McConnaughey designed and presented at Hannah McConnaughey the regional contest on Facebook, they asked her to join the team. McConnaughey was the publicist and communication director for Team Atlantis. The Hawaiian team offered her a spot to improve its poster and presentation. “They decided that their weakest point was communications, poster and technical communications,” McConnaughey said. “I was thrilled. I worked so hard on the poster.” The nine boys from the Hawaiian team communicated with McConnaughey through Skype, where she learned about the Hawaiian group’s “bot.” “I got to know every aspect of the bot,” she said. The Honolulu team went through hard times when they lost their mentor, and had to quickly find a new one by themselves. Also, their equipment was stolen, but they beat the odds and now they will appear in Orlando with a new poster designed by their newest member and the only girl on the team. McConnaughey will fly to Florida on June 21 for the competition, which runs June 22 to 23. Visit the Freeland Library to see Team Atlantis, Inc.’s underwater robot and award winning poster through June 15.

notable Rev. Elizabeth “Kit” Ketcham to retire The Reverend Elizabeth “Kit” Ketcham of the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Whidbey Island (UUCWI) will retire June 30 after being on Whidbey Island since 2003. Ketcham has served the congregation for the past nine years. On June 24, she will be presented with the honorary title of Minister Emerita for her outstanding dedication and service. Raised a Baptist minister’s daughter, Ketcham received her B.A. at Linfield College in Oregon. She enjoyed many careers before coming to the ministry: welfare worker, American Baptist Home Missionary, junior high school Spanish teacher and guidance counselor. Ketcham’s ministry saw the construction of the new church on Highway 525 in 2008. She supported efforts to create a “green” building with ground source geothermal heat, recycled wood beams and insulated panels and windows. Active in the larger Whidbey community, Ketcham participates in the Lectionary Study Group composed of several South End ministers. Their purpose is to recognize the issues of
respective denominations, discuss the needs of the community and be supportive of each other. As the minister of a congregation that welcomes persons regardless of their sexual orientation, The Rev. Ketcham is active in Pflag (parents and friends of lesbians and gays), Equal Rights Washington, the Pride Foundation and Washington United for Marriage. In what Rev. Ketcham calls her “6th Career” she is the lead singer in Bayview Sound, an American roots music group of bass, guitars, viola and keyboard which has performed at venues all over the island. Visit her blog, “Ms Kitty’s Saloon and Road Show,” to find out more about this versatile woman. Ketcham will retire to Oregon later this summer. Of her years on Whidbey Island she said, “These have been the happiest years of my life. I’ve been appreciated by this community and have been able to hone my skills as a minister and to grow as the congregation has grown.” At her farewell Sunday service at UUCWI, Ketcham will present, “Down Memory Lane and Into the Future.”

HUB youth center raffle sale raises $4000 Sheriff’s Report BY RECORD STAFF
The HUB youth hangout raised $4,000 from its recent raffle ticket sale. At stake was $800 worth of gardening supplies like tools, seed and bird feeders, all donated by South Whidbey hardware stores and garden nurseries. The funds will help the HUB, which had an average of 25 kids coming to play pool, table tennis and video games, toward its goal of operating five days per week next year. On June 6, a HUB kid drew the winning raffle ticket for Linda Heintz. Frankie Petitclerc said they knew Heintz worked nearby at the Whidbey Island Bank, so about 20 kids carried all the gardening supplies to the bank to inform Heintz she won the raffle. “We just showed up and surprised her. It was fun,” Petitclerc said. The HUB sold the tickets at markets on the South End, as well as at both the Mukilteo and Clinton ferry terminals. After 22 years as part of the South Whidbey Youth Connection, a nowdefunct nonprofit, the HUB closed in 2011. Government funding was withdrawn and the program had to

some time and county officials have been working on a secondary access for that section of Highway 525 for years. Several years ago, six options were studied and a preferred route was established. However, the exact path is not set in stone and Public Works is sincerely looking for public input, Oakes said. “The general area is identified but we can still make changes at this point,” Oakes said. Under the proposed orientation, the road would run through or effect up to 40 parcels, he said. About one-third of the street would be made up of what is now Kempton Place, a private, dead-end gravel drive. The remainder would be constructed in what is now forest and grasslands. The
exact path hasn’t been determined yet but four routes are under consideration. All would intersect Highland Trail and be built largely on two 10-acre parcels owned by the county. The entire road would total between 1.4 and 1.5 miles depending on the route selected. Oakes estimated the total project cost at about $6 million. But as the county only has funding for design, permitting and right of way expenses, it could be years before construction begins. In past meetings, some people have objected that the new road would open up more Whidbey Island land to developers.
County proceeds with new road plan By JUSTIN BURNETT Staff reporter
Island County is laying plans to build its first new road in decades and officials are looking for the public’s help. While the start of construction is likely years away, Island County Public Works is in the process of designing the new road and is hoping to gather input from the community at an open house next week. The meeting will run from 6 to 8 p.m. Thursday, June 21, and will be held at Central Whidbey Fire and Rescue’s headquarters at 1164 Race Road. The proposed road would connect Race and Houston roads on Central Whidbey. The idea is to create an efficient alternative route for Highway 525 in the event it was blocked or closed in an emergency. According to Bill Oakes, director for public works, having an alternate access for that part of the highway is essential as a closure of that part of the highway would essentially split Whidbey Island in two. Aside from being a major inconvenience for motorists, it could present a major public safety issue, Oakes said. “A block in Highway 525 would isolate a significant portion of Whidbey from our primary medical facility,” Oakes said. It would also restrict the response capabilities of fire departments and first responders, sever public transportation service that connects one end of the island to the other and cut off access to the ferry docks in Clinton and Coupeville. The ramifications of such a closure have been known for

FREELAND Fireworks a go but money’s short Freeland’s Celebrate America fireworks show got the go-ahead last week, even though organizers are still trying to scrape up $4,000 to guarantee the same quality as in past years. Matt Chambers, organizer, said if the monetary shortfall persists, the committee in charge will have to make cuts, perhaps the rented inflatable toys for kids or the rented buses that carry people to and from the crowed Freeland Park. The fireworks show at dusk is preceded by music, food booths and fun and games for the kids. “We are wrestling with the money and all the options to come up with the best event with the money we have to work with,” Chambers said. Donations may be made by calling 221-1656 or emailing mbchambers@whidbey. com. Meanwhile, road closures for the Tuesday, July 3, event have been released. The following roads in Freeland will be closed from 4 p.m. to 11 p.m. July 3: • Shoreview Drive between Freeland Avenue and Stewart Road. • Myrtle Avenue

The special meeting is set for 9 a.m., Friday, June 15 in Conference Room B of the hospital.

Langley pressures Supreme Court Builder joins commission The Whidbey action group known as Citizen’s Ignited won its first official ally in Langley last week. Dedicated to overturning the much criticized Supreme Court decision commonly referred to as Citizens United, the Langley City Council agreed to support the group’s goal with a resolution urging Congress to take action to reverse the decision. One of the only ways to do so is with the approval of a constitutional amendment. The council’s resolution, which was adopted by unanimous vote, urges Congress to begin the process by preparing and then sending an amendment to states for approval. The council’s action follows a national movement of cities and states that have passed similar resolutions or ordinances against Citizens United, which determined that corporations and unions have the same First Amendment free speech rights as people and that the government could not restrict them from making independent political expenditures. According to the Move to Amend website, movetoamend.org, so far at least four states and 120 local governments,

A Camano Island man has been appointed to the Island County Planning Commission. James Hall of Dallman Road was selected by the Island County Commissioners on Monday to fill the District 3 position 1 seat. It was previously occupied by William Lippens, who resigned in May after taking a job out of state. The planning commission is a nine member advisory body that makes recommendations to the commissioners in matters concerning growth and development. All positions carry a four-year term. Hall has been a builder for more than 20 years and is the current president of the Camano Island Builders Association. His appointment to the planning commission was decided by unanimous vote.

The board will also review eight policies covering a range of issues.

Saving lives, saving money To the editor: I manage the volunteer firefighter and emergency medical technician (EMT) program for South Whidbey Fire/EMS. I thought your readers might be interested to know that we have more than 75 volunteers donating 25,000 hours each year to help people in the South Whidbey community. This is a valuable program. Relying on volunteers saves our taxpayers $1.15 million each year in personnel costs. It’s even more valuable in that it saves lives every day. In 2011, our volunteers responded to 1,900 emergency calls for help. Volunteering with the fire department is a way of life for South Whidbey residents. Some of our volunteers are even second and third generation! In November, you will have a chance to vote on a levy lid lift to continue funding our volunteer program. The taxes you pay make sure that our volunteer firefighters and EMTs are trained and have the equipment they need for fire and medical calls. Please feel free to ask us if you have questions about the levy. On behalf of all of us, thank you for your support. Paul Busch Operations Chief

Frost/Nixon enlivens history To the editor: I have just been to the play Frost/Nixon at WICA. My 13-year-old daughter and I were captivated and impressed by the acting in particular. Everything about the play was superb. It was completely believable and we would highly recommend it. (There are some cuss words used, for anybody who is sensitive to that). I was 20 years old when Watergate began. I well remember the shock that the entire country felt when the original news hit the TV that there had been a break in at the Democratic headquarters and it was then revealed that there had also been a presidential cover up of the break in. This followed on the heels of years of enduring television viewing of the horrors of the Vietnam War and the deaths during the U.S. protests. (I lived near Isla Vista when the burning of the bank occurred in 1970.) The actual Frost interviews were high drama, and to have lived during that emotional time makes this play all that much
more interesting. The true test, though, was the reaction of my daughter. She became inquisitive and engaged in learning more about the events depicted. I consider her new understanding of history to be invaluable and want to commend everyone involved with this fine play. Joan Govedare Langley

What I hear over and over again is, “Yes!” Through the knowledge, guidance and patience of these generous adults, students have had opportunities to learn about small business operation, customer service, childcare and tutoring, animal health and horse training, culinary arts, cosmetology and technical theater skills. In experiencing what goes on behind the scenes and in developing relationships with caring adults, students gain confidence, develop communication skills while working with people outside of their peer group, get a taste of what having a job entails and begin to explore career choices.

FORGET MOONLIGHTING Imagine working two jobs, in two different locations, with one job providing excellent earnings while the other pays nothing? Which job would get the bulk of your attention? Homeowners sometimes place themselves in such a situation when they plant a “For Sale By Owner” sign. To successfully market a home, it is necessary to be available at all hours — seven days a week. The home must be kept in model condition, ready for showings — sometimes with only 30 minutes notice. Research must be done to determine recent sale prices on comparable homes. A marketing campaign must be planned and implemented. Mortgage loans must be arranged, appraisals and inspections coordinated, and... well... you get the picture. Real estate specialists work full-time. Period. They understand the complexities of marketing a home, and are 100% committed to the achievement of your objectives. Amazingly, they get paid only after successfully selling each home. Thinking of trying it as a “By Owner?” Think again!

began in earnest over the weekend. When asked if he was relieved the closure was finally over, Jefferds said, “Absolutely. Now we see if we can make up for lost time.” The state Department of Health closed Penn Cove for shellfish harvesting on May 15 following the burning and sinking of a 128-foot fishing boat. It had been illegally anchored just outside the mussel rafts for more than a month. More than 5,000 gallons of fuel were recovered from the ship and on the surface after it went down but not before the fishery was closed. The derelict vessel was raised earlier this month, June 3, at a cost of about $2.7 million. While some areas were reopened for shellfish harvesting two days after the raising, the majority of Penn Cove wasn’t opened for commercial and recreation harvesting until Friday. Madrona Beach remains closed as slight
contamination was detected in the latest round of odor and taste testing. The closure has been tough on the renowned mussel farm. The company lost a day of sales, representing over $40,000, the day after the ship sank. The farm was able to mitigate most of its losses from there by shifting harvesting operations to its farm in Quilcene. Despite the hardship, Jefferds said the disaster could have been a lot worse and expressed gratitude to all the local, state and federal agencies that worked for weeks to control pollution and remove the vessel. Jefferds said he hasn’t yet tallied all the financial damages the farm incurred from the sinking and closure. For now, he’s content to be back in business in Penn Cove and serving locally grown shellfish to the community. “The mussels are really fat and sweet and we’re just happy to have them back on local menus,” Jefferds said.

Coaches applaud Sage’s passion as girls golf coach BY BEN WATANABE Staff reporter
LANGLEY — Golf is a game of rules, and few people in the Cascade Conference know those rules like Tom Sage. And not many coach like Sage. Other league coaches noticed enough to vote him the girls golf coach of the year. The most important rule, Sage said, happens to be the first rule: The rules cannot be waived. Not for other golfers and not for his golfers. “Otherwise there’s no stability,” Sage said. “It equalizes things.” “Everybody can know the rules.” Though he’s considered a walking (and sometimes carting) rule book, Sage’s wisdom was not always so sagelike. Sage recalled a tournament in Oak Harbor where another coach corrected him, and rightly so by Sage’s hindsight admission, in front of his own players. Embarrassment was an understatement, but it changed his approach to coaching girls golf. Now, Sage is the aficionado during conference meets. “Every coach would defer to Tom in a second,” said Ron Eaton, Falcon assistant girls golf coach. Now, before the Falcon girls set foot on the practice greens at Useless Bay Golf & Country Club, they study. Sage, who teaches math and wood shop at Langley Middle School, and Eaton teach the rules. Then the Falcons hit the course, where Sage teaches them again, and again, and again, all season-long.
Ben Watanabe / The Record
Tom Sage, the Falcon girls golf head coach and conference coach of the year, has a photos of the teams he coached on the wall in his Langley Middle School classroom. “If you’re in the second year, or God forbid you’re in your third year, and you don’t know the rules, you will hear about it,” Eaton said. “He is the rules guy.” And Eaton should know. His daughters Nici and Jessi were coached by Sage. Jessi returned to help the team this year, which demonstrates the other side of Sage’s coaching qualities: he connects with the young women in meaningful ways. Every year at the end of the year banquets, Eaton said, Sage tells the players they are the second-most important group of people behind his family. For at least one of those golfers this year, Sage was
briefly Falcon boys hoops hosts salmon banquet The Falcons have caught some salmon. The South Whidbey boys basketball team will host a salmon dinner from 6 to 8:30 p.m. Friday, June 15 in the New Commons at the high school. Funds raised from the $15 tickets ($55 for a family of four and more) will help the team buy uniforms, practice jerseys and new balls and attend a summer camp.

doubling up on her importance to him. His daughter Molly, a freshman, was on the varsity team with Coach Dad. “Any time a parent has the opportunity to coach their kid, it’s a special thing,” Sage said. While he enjoyed seeing his daughter an extra couple of hours during spring, their relationship wasn’t always a hole-in-one. Sage learned to separate between the roles of parent/child and coach/player, though at times coaching his daughter was like talking in the mirror. “Part of it was just our personalities,” Sage said. “We’re very much alike.”
One of their shared traits is a competitive drive. During a season, it’s hard to tell Sage wants to claim victories, conference championships, district and state titles because he patrols a course to help golfers — any golfers — with rules explanations. “He is uber competitive. He wants to win, win, win,” Eaton said. “That doesn’t rule his behavior with the girls.” Changing from a young, win-at-all-costs coach some 20 years ago to a father-coach stemmed from lessons others taught Sage. He credited Bill Patterson for his organizational skills and making the team a family. Golf can easily become individualized,
Little League looking for tournament help
Crabs claim Pony League baseball title
South Whidbey Little League needs a little help at the end of June. The youth baseball league will host the District 11 all star tournament June 30 to July 7 for the 9-10 year old division. Seven teams will compete in the double elimination tournament for a total of 12 or 13 games that week. Jeff Daly, South Whidbey Little League president, said volunteers are needed as scorekeepers, pitch counters, announcers, scoreboard operators and to work concession stands during each game. To help, contact Daly at swllpresident@gmail.com or 360-661-6025.
The Whidbey Crabs baseball team won its second consecutive league championship as a Pony League club. The Crabs added three wins this week to bump their record to 26-3, which cinched their title hunt. Whidbey, which is part of the Mountlake Terrace Youth Athletics Association, beat the Seattle Blaze 11-1 Wednesday in Mountlake Terrace. Peter Jacobs led all batters, going 4-for-4 at the plate. Will Simms, Houston Schmutz, Trent Piehler and Josiah Sergeant each added two hits. Charlie Patterson picked up his eighth win and remained perfect from the
but Sage said it’s important for retention and enjoyment to focus the game around the social aspect. Chad Felgar taught Sage how to use humor to reach students and young people at “a kid level.” Mick Heggenes showed Sage how to keep golf light and fun. And Andy Davis indirectly demonstrated how to work with difficult athletes to keep them part of the program, rather than dismissal, as a way to build character. “Not many kids are perfect, in fact few of them are. And when they make mistakes, it’s how I deal with those mistakes that defines me,” Sage said. South Whidbey Athletic Director Scott Mauk noticed that drive. He praised the way Sage works with kids, both as a coach and as a teacher. “Tom, he’s one of the guys in the district who’s a kid whisperer,” Mauk said. “He’s out there with the kids. He’s not hanging out in the club house.” “His peers see that. His peers see how dedicated he is. His peers see how ethical he is.” Luckily for Sage, he had a team of well-behaved students. Still, that doesn’t stop the math teacher from estimating the probability that someday a student will make an off-the-fairways mistake or poor decision. That belief combined with his desire to create a family atmosphere about the team led him to his mantra of treating the Falcons and other teams’ golfers like they were his children. “I want to be the kind of coach the kids call at two in
mound, while Houston Schmutz closed the final innings. Over the weekend in earlier action, the Crabs hosted a MTYAA jamboree three-game tournament with the MTYAA Titans and the MTYAA All-Star team comprised of the best players from all teams except Whidbey. The Crabs opted out of all-star competition to continue their season as a local squad in a few weeks. The jamboree was another showcase for the Crabs as they beat the Titans 4-2 and rallied in the final inning to clinch a 5-4 win over the All-Stars as Jacobs knocked in the winning run in the bottom of the seventh inning. The team stormed the field and swarmed Jacobs. The Crabs will be back in
the morning if they’re in trouble, and not worry if they’re going to get kicked off the team,” Sage said. “Sports in school are a vehicle for a different end. First of all, to give kids a positive thing to do when they could get pulled the other way. Then just be the best person I can be to show the kids what it’s like to show gratitude for people helping you, empathy for your fellow players and competitors, and character building all the way around.” Sage learned an invaluable rule when he returned to the program in 2006. The Falcons were a 3A school then, and the girls golf team had a shot at the state team title. A golfer made a rules mistake that cost her a stroke, which ended up dropping South Whidbey to second place — still the best finish the girls golf team ever recorded. Flash forward six years to 2012 at the state 2A girls golf tournament. Falcon junior golfer Jenna Kaik had qualified for the second round. She hit onto a cart path in the first hole, right in front of a rules official. What happened next was a moment Sage called his proudest as the Falcon girls golf coach. “She looked it over, looked around, did exactly what she was supposed to do with relief,” Sage said. “And the rules official looked at me and said, ‘It’s nice to see kids who know what to do.’” Kaik followed the rules, and that’s a rule Sage can live by.
action June 30 when they host the Seattle Pony League team for a doubleheader at the South Whidbey Parks & Recreation District field at Community Park. The Whidbey Crabs are a select baseball club of 12 and 13-year-old players mostly from the South End. Whidbey’s select baseball club has worked the past two years to make Dave Mackie Park its home field. They repaired the dugouts, backstop, foul poles and field with the help of Island County Public Works and the Rotary Club of South Whidbey Island. A team parent said the inaugural game at Mackie Park in Maxwelton may be played in early July.

scheduled to do any work at the facility. During the investigation, deputies discovered that another woman was staying at the house. The 52-yearold woman had flown from Alaska and had arrived June 3. She said she knew the Bakers through their work in Antarctica. The woman said Al Baker had made it clear that he wanted a romantic relationship with her and had claimed his marriage with Kathie was over, according to a report by Detective Mark Plumberg with the Island County Sheriff’s Office. Based on inconsistencies with his story, the deputies and a detective returned to the house and interviewed Al Baker again on June 8. He gave “improbable stories about the whereabouts of his wife” and then stopped answering questions, Plumberg wrote. Al Baker gave the deputies and detectives permission to search his home. As he entered the house, Plumberg immediately noticed “a vivid stain,” later identified as blood, on the living room carpet.

“The stain was long and consistent with something being dragged over the carpet,” Plumberg wrote. The deputies followed the drag marks to the kitchen, down a flight of stairs and to the garage. They found what was later identified as blood stains on the cement floor of the garage. Upstairs, a deputy also found a small pool of blood on the master bedroom carpet, according to Plumberg’s report. Based on the evidence, the detectives obtained a search warrant. Members of the state patrol’s Crime Scene Response Team arrived at the house June 9 to help process the scene. Wallace said the drag marks led in the direction of a small ravine behind a woodshed in the backyard of the house. The investigators searched the ravine and found Kathie’s body at 10:15 a.m. Saturday. She was wrapped in a blue tarp and

wound was consistent with a single blow from a hammer. Island County Coroner Robert Bishop said the cause of death was blunt force trauma to the head with ligature strangulation. “Both of the causes are lethal,” he said. “We are not going to split hairs over what came first.” Bishop said Kathie Baker had been dead more than 72 hours, but it’s not possible to be more accurate beyond that.

A couple of photos of Kathie stood with a few flower bouquets. Business at the nearby Midway Cafe was nil during the lunch rush, and employees said it was unusually slow that morning, too. Midway Cafe has only been open since January, but the employees said they met Kathie and she came in frequently for lunch and was “super nice” and “sweet” and ordered hot

Explore the cultural wonders of Japan in Langley BY PATRICIA DUFF South Whidbey Record
From sushi to shakuhachi, the art, tastes and sounds of Japan comes to Langley next week. Join the celebration of Japanese culture through visual art, food, music and dance Saturday, June 23 at the Northwest Language Academy Cultural Center in Langley. “The Riches of Japan” is the next in the academy’s Language of Food Series when cuisines and cultures from around the world are explored, along with the way in which such cultures maintain past traditions. Several events will take place honoring Japan that day. Through the week preceding the event, NWLA will host 21 Japanese fiber artists, who are in the United States as part of an exhibition on Japanese Quilts and Embroidery at the La Conner Quilt and Textile Museum. The evening Japanese feast, at which the artists will be hosting, will be a culmination of their stay. Kimonos and Japanese quilts and fiber arts will be on display, and guests are invited to mingle with the artists, ask questions and learn how to wear a kimono. Academy board member Ako Shimozato is responsible for the visit of the Japanese textile artists, who will show their work in La Conner. “The La Conner Textile Museum will hold its eighth annual Japanese quilt show. These artists will be here for three months and while they are on the island they will study English for three days while they stay at the Northwest Language Academy or nearby,”
Shimozato said. Shimozato likes to provide a full experience for visiting artists. To that end, in addition to the NWLA event, she will bring them on the Whidbey Island Garden Tour, as well as to other attractions around the island. They will meet the South Whidbey Quilters on the Rock group and learn how that group provides quilts for those serving abroad in the military and for disabled persons. “These ladies have done a lot of work themselves for the survivors of the tsunami in northern Japan. They have much in common,” Shimozato said. A cooking class from 2 to 5 p.m. will demonstrate the techniques of sushi and other traditional favorites. The class will be led by Chef Kotaro Kumita, a disciple of Seattle sushi deity Shiro Kashiba — founder of the iconic restaurant Shiro’s Sushi. Chef Kotaro will prepare a traditional Japanese dinner from 6 to 9 p.m. served family style on NWLA’s garden terrace. Guests will enjoy appetizers, sake and Japanese beer as they take in the festive atmosphere, with performances of koto and shakuhachi music, and a performance by the Sound Singers Japanese Chorus. Yasuko Honjo Harris will be play Shinbue, a transverse bamboo flute. NWLA is also delighted to welcome Mary Ohno and the members of her Kabuki Academy Performance Troupe for a performance of Japanese classical dance and the Kabuki arts. Ohno has studied classical Japanese dance for 50 years, and earned the title of “Hanayagi Fumiryu” in 1966. She and

LANGLEY — Moonraker Books in Langley sails into its 40th year this weekend as owner Josh Hauser continues to navigate the waves of fortune. Hauser, who began the bookstore in June of 1972 with her recently deceased husband Glenn, said that she has utterly enjoyed the ride. “I’m going for distance and not for speed,” said the petite and pretty Hauser, reminiscing from her perch behind the counter at 209 First St. Indeed, holding the place of honor as the oldest business in downtown Langley shows a good deal of stamina for any store, particularly an independent bookshop in a world of big chains, online booksellers and e-readers. Hauser’s friends and fellow merchants will celebrate accordingly with an official toast at 4:30 p.m. Friday, June 15 during the Second Street Market festivities and sponsored by the Langley Main Street Association. Mayor Larry Kwarsick will even declare June 15 the official “Moonraker Day” in Langley. Hauser said when she and Glenn first landed on the island from Southern California, they weren’t sure what they were going to do. He had been a military pilot and she knew she could use her wits. “I can read!” Hauser said she kept thinking out loud, and besides being able to command an air wing, Glenn was good with tools. “It was a very benign time to start a bookstore,” she said. After a “for sale” sign went up in the window for the building on First Street, the couple snapped it up and transformed the dumpy structure into a warm and sunny enclave for book lovers. They also owned what was a liquor store next door, but eventually sold that. “If I had gone to the American Booksellers School I would have been out of the business in six months, because their idea of a bookstore was to have

40
20 employees,” Hauser said. Instead the young couple did it all themselves, including the interior carpentry thanks to Glenn. The Moonraker name has nothing to do with James Bond, and everything to do with strategy. “We didn’t want a name that tied us to selling books,” Hauser said, in case the book business didn’t fly. So they took a nautical name. Moonraker is a small, square sail set above a skysail on a sailing ship. They thought it an appropriate name for a store in a seaside village, no matter what it sells. Nancy Welles was glad it was books. She strolled onto the Langley scene in 1977 and said the Moonraker was the first place she stopped. Ten years later she was employed by her favorite shop and said she’ll probably be there until they carry her out. “You have to have a passion for this business; it’s a labor of love. And we are dear friends, of course,” Welles said of working for Josh and Glenn for the past 25 years. Being a presence there for so many years has also given her insight into why the business has survived so long. “Josh has an ability to make the customer feel like her best friend. She has always had a great sense of community,” Welles said, “Plus she’s the cutest girl in town,” she added with a smile. The LaRue sisters agreed. Denise and Michele LaRue are also longtime business owners of the First Street clothing shops, Big Sister and The Cottage, and good friends of the Hausers.

Josh Hauser stands in front of the children’s book section at Moonraker Books in Langley. Hauser started the bookstore 40 years ago this month with her husband Glenn Hauser, who died May 10. “Josh was my very first friend when we moved here in the spring of 1975,” Denise LaRue said. “I was working for the Oaken Bucket antiques and in those days we’d be sittin’ on the stoops in our overalls waiting to see who would hit town,” she said. Denise called Hauser Langley’s “good will ambassador;” the one who would welcome all the new business owners to town. “They also had a great sense of humor. Upstairs in their attic window they had lettering that said ‘Tuxedo Rentals,’” Denise said, laughing. Michele, too, remembers she and husband Les Dunner befriended Josh and Glenn immediately. “She’s everything that makes Langley great. The businesses are driven by the people who own and run
them,” Michele said. “First you must love talking to new people and sincerely win them over as a friend for 15 minutes or a lifetime. Josh does this easily with everyone she meets. Langley would not be Langley without The Moonraker. It’s because of the spirit of both Glen and Josh, with their charm and enthusiasm for books and people, and, of course, they’re wonderful manager Nancy and the whole crew, who make The Moonraker a very welcoming place to visit,” she added. As it turns out, choosing books was a good idea. Hauser and Welles said that they hear folks talk about the value of having a local independent bookstore in town and that they’ve heard people say that they moved to the South End because of it. What’s even
more unusual is that the Village by the Sea manages to have room for two bookstores; Gregor Rare Books on Second Street has been around for 25 years. “It’s pretty hard to remain a small book vendor,” Denise LaRue said. “Josh is a good buyer; she’s got a great personality and she’s great at customer service.” Personality, enthusiasm and charm are some of the words repeated again and again about Hauser, and the merchants of Langley will make some noise on Friday to show their appreciation. “It’s always been fun. I’ve always loved it,” Hauser said. Michele LaRue and Jennifer Todd will lead the community in singing “Happy Birthday” to Moonraker Books and to Hauser, whose birthday is June 18.

speaker. He spoke about the wonders of adventure and the power of having a place like South Whidbey to call home. “Futures aren’t started by fantasies, but footsteps,” he said. “Let’s remember the Whidbey roads and the people who helped us get here today.” In his closing remarks after the receiving of diplomas, Patton reminded the students to thank their parents. “(Parents) are the reason the class of 2012 is on the stage right now,” he said, even as his pockets were packed with marshmallows, gum drops and other soft candy students had handed him as they shook his hand (a longcontinued tradition). Sommer Harris, one of five valedictorians for South Whidbey, urged her peers to embrace their curiosity and to choose a positive attitude. “You always have a choice,” Harris said. “We have a choice about our attitude every day.” “Keep alive your zest for life.” While earlier speakers encouraged the experimentation and mistakes of young adulthood, one speaker reminded her classmates about the realities of the future. Holly Huey, another valedictorian, talked about the responsibility that accompanies graduating from high school. “From this moment on, we will own every mistake, every compliment,” she said. The final valedictorian speech came from the high school’s Associated Student Body president, Will Mellish. He reflected on how his class had matured from rowdy middle schoolers into school-spirit shouting Falcons. “How many assemblies did we have (in middle school)? One. Why was that? Oh yeah, we got banned from them,” he said. “There’s something about a childish enthusiasm that will serve us well.” Home also meant a long distance to some students, among them Chris Penafiel, a South Whidbey resident since he was a student at Langley Middle School more than four years ago. His family is from the Philippines, which he represented by donning a lei made with flowers and folded dollar bills his father Carlos had made for him and a few of his childhood friends. There were also three foreign exchange students — Suttida Chinnawong, Judith Jaeger and Carol Jenkinson — who received honorary diplomas from South Whidbey. South Whidbey’s schools superintendent stressed the meaning and importance of the diploma and graduating high school. Jo Moccia echoed life lessons like “be kind” and “change all the time” that she shared a couple of days earlier with the graduates of Bayview School. “It is something that no one can ever take away from you,” she said. “The most important learning that you do happens every day.” Though she urged these former students to continue learning, they know where they began their educational journey: South Whidbey.

Strawberries make a fine tribute to the best Dad For a number of years during my childhood, one of my best friends frequently borrowed my dad for some occasion or another. She lived just across the street and spent a lot of her non-school time at our house, and even though I knew she had no dad of her own, it didn’t occur to me until years later what a huge difference it made in her life. And every Father’s Day, she made him a card and brought it over to give him. Her dad had died in a logging accident when she was two and her mother never remarried, so she and her older brother grew up fatherless. I, on the other hand, had been dealt one of the best fathers I’ve ever known, and I didn’t mind sharing him with my friend. Of course, during those years, I wasn’t aware that my father was exceptional; he was just Dad, and as far as I knew then, most kids’ dads were pretty much the same. Dad went to work on weekdays, mowed the lawn and went fishing and/ or hunting on the weekends, fixed things around the house when something broke, checked our report cards and either praised or urged improvement, sat through school plays and piano recitals, took us out for Sunday afternoon drives, read the paper, scolded us when Mom said we needed “a good talking to about our behavior,” took out the garbage, and mostly was just always there. All the other dads I knew were more or less the same, I thought then. Over the years, h o w e v e r, I came to u n d e r stand that there are, indeed, exceptional

Whidbey Island takes its wildlife habitat seriously
WHIDBEY BIRDING Frances Wood Has a bird crashed into your window or have you watched a crow carry off a baby robin? If so, you are aware that birds’ lives are very fragile. About once a year a hummingbird gets trapped in our garage and
I later discover its tiny body on the floor. Of all the young swallows that hatch here every summer, only about 19 percent survive their winter migration to return in the spring. Not all baby birds are destined to survive. Think of mother mallard with her 12 ducklings in tow. If all those offspring survived and also produced a dozen babies, generation after generation, we’d soon be knee deep in ducks, not to mention what they leave behind. Traditionally, the balance of nature, at least in theory, kept the population of each species in its proper place. Then along came humans. And we are now placed in a position of controlling, for good or for bad, the fate of many non-human species.
Two bird death issues have recently come to light right here on Whidbey. The recent oil spill in Penn Cove is one. Mussels, clams and oysters are at risk, as well as about 100 pigeon guillemots, black seabirds with white wing patches and bright red feet, which breed each summer in the bluffs around Penn Cove. The discharge of diesel fuel into the water will influence the health of that ecosystem for years to come. Since diesel is light and transparent we won’t see birds covered in gooey black sludge, but indirectly they may be harmed by ingesting the oil and by the degradation of the habitat and their food source. The second issue is the killing of Canada geese at

Honeymoon Lake. I’m particularly concerned when decisions are made based on lack of scientific information of the lives of these birds and/or from over-emotional reactions. Decision makers on the goose issue need to consider some basic facts about these birds. The big, pale-bellied Canada geese camped out at the lake are non- migratory. They do not fly away in the spring or fall, although they may change campsites within the region. During the last century, in order to populate wildlife refuges and provide prey for waterfowl hunters, we humans transported these big geese from the Great Basin into Western Washington. The geese populations thrived and spilled

out into our lakefronts and golf courses. Their numbers are continuing to increase and if we kill off the ones on Honeymoon Lake now, there will likely be new pairs of geese out looking to claim that territory in the future, absent a comprehensive, regional plan to reduce their numbers. Locally, the geese can be discouraged from waterside property by vegetative barriers. Those smaller, darker migrating geese that we may have seen in large V formations flying overhead are a different species. They still fly overhead and breed father north, although in reduced numbers. Let’s not confuse them with our transplanted and now resident populations, the ones causing the problems. The American Bird Conservancy defines the number one cause of premature bird death as habitat destruction. And the number two cause is predation. Much of that predation is traditionally a part of nature, for example the predation on all those “extra” baby mallards. But also millions of birds are killed each day by house cats that roam outdoors and from feral cats. This has prompted a growing “keep cats indoors” campaign. Not only is it saving
birds’ lives, it is also saving cats’ lives. Are we, perhaps, spending too much time debating the lives of a few geese and neglecting our duty as protectors of the lives of millions of other birds? I’m so proud that Whidbey Island was recently awarded a Community Wildlife Habitat Certification. It proves we are taking seriously the need to preserve habitat for wildlife. Thanks to the work of Audubon volunteer Lydia Sikes, and many others, we’ve become a community that, at least officially, cares about wildlife. Earlier this month a Backyard Wildlife Habitat Fair celebrated this designation and brought together community members and organizations that are working hard to preserve our wildlife and to learn ways to deal intelligently with unwanted wildlife. June is a month of new life and renewed hope. May we all recommit to being responsible stewards of our rich, natural habitat here on beautiful Whidbey Island. Frances Wood can be reached at wood@whidbey. com. Her book on bird watching is titled, “Brushed by Feathers: A Year of Birdwatching in the West.”
