COUNTY GOVERNMENT

County board pays tribute to Gouker John Finfrock elected as new Ogle County Board Chairman

BY VINDE WELLS vwells@oglecountynews.com

The chair at the center of the Ogle County Board table sat vacant Tuesday night in memory of board chairman Kim Gouker, who died unexpectedly a week earlier.

Gouker, 66, was found dead in his home in Byron on Sept. 10.

A suit jacket, like the ones Gouker typically wore, was hung over the back of his chair and a red rose lay on the table at his place.

Vice chairman John Finfrock, of Mt. Morris, paid tribute to his friend and colleague.

“Kim’s passing was a complete surprise and shock,” he said. “I was honored when he asked me if I would serve with him as vice chairman. We didn’t always agree, but one thing we did agree on was that we had the best people, the best board, and the best department

heads we could ask for.”

The board’s first order of business was to elect Gouker’s replacement.

Finfrock got the board’s unanimous approval to fill the vacancy, and Patricia Nordman, of Oregon, was elected vice chairman.

The board also announced a board vacancy in District 6, where Gouker served. The seat must be filled within 60 days, and applications for the post will be accepted through Oct. 10 at the county clerk’s office.

Gouker was elected to the county

board in 1996 and had served as its chairman since 2012.

He was instrumental in the planning and building of the Ogle County Judicial Center, the restoration of the historic Ogle County Courthouse, and the planning and building of the new Ogle County Jail that is currently under construction.

The board recognized Gouker’s service to the county with a resolution declaring Saturday, Sept.

21 as Kim P. Gouker Day to “encourage all residents of Ogle County to join in remembrance and recognition of our county’s John Finfrock great public servant.”

In a statement released last week, state’s attorney Eric Morrow said Gouker “worked tirelessly for the good of Ogle County and had an extensive knowledge of county government.”

“Since his election as chairman in 2012, the Ogle County Board has been a cohesive and productive legislative body,” Morrow said.

“Chairman Gouker will be missed, not only for his contributions to local government, but also his wit and personality.”

Gouker’s body was discovered by Byron police officers doing a welfare check.

Coroner Lou Finch said Sept. 12 that an autopsy was performed the day before but did not release a cause of death pending the results of lab tests.

A complete obituary appears on page 20.

This evergreen was rumored to be diseased but actually the real reason was perhaps it had gotten to big to put Christmas lights on anymore.

The tree was pronounced healthy by experts.

I guess the question is: Do we really want to take down a healthy tree when

it is not endangering anyone or anything just because it is no longer handy for Christmas lights?

Perhaps our energy and concerns could be used in better ways...and one healthy tree should not be sacrificed as too big for a month’s worth of Christmas lights when the town is full of dead ash

trees just waiting for someone to afford to take them down.

I guess it doesn’t make much sense to me but that is just me. I am sure common sense will prevail.

LOCAL HISTORY

Warmolts created a hospital, clinic in Oregon Editor’s note: Otto Dick, Oregon, has researched the people, places, and events important in the Oregon area’s history for the Ogle County Historical Society.

The following is one of a series of the articles he has written.

BY OTTO DICK The apartment complex north of St. Mary Catholic Church on Fourth Street is the footprint of Dr. Lambertus Warmolts.

The 1942 Oregon Reporter newspaper announced “Oregon’s New Hospital Now Enters Service.”

This 109 by 72 foot building faced with white brick was designed by architect Willis Hubbard, of Rockford, and the builder was Charles Mongan, of Oregon.

This was Dr. Warmolts’ third hospital. His first hospital was at the home he purchased just south of the old Oregon Golf Course.

He converted this home into a hospital. His first patient was a mother delivering a baby lying on a camp cot for the delivery.

His second hospital was located on the second floor above the corner drug store located at the southwest corner of Washington and Third Streets.

Here he created a 13-room hospital with an operating room.

My partner in life Marilyn was born in this hospital.

Her folks carried her down the long stairs. They must have dropped her because she married me.

Dr. Warmolts’ father and mother were both born in Holland.

His father Lambertus died on Oct. 15, 1947 at the age of 81. His mother Elizabeth lived 95 years.

Lambertus Sr. was 20 years old when he came to this country. In 1903 they moved to Oregon.

He worked as a carpenter and contractor. His two sons and daughter received their education at local schools.

Many of our early settlers were born in other countries.

Dr. Warmolts graduated from Oregon High School in 1911.

The following is from (Viewpoint, An Oral History 1975).

“During my high school days I worked on the farm all the time.

My dad was a carpenter, so I did a lot of work.

“I didn’t have much time for school activities. I love to dance but never went to dances at school. It was a hard life. There

“I graduated from high school and never spoke a speech. Every Friday, they used to have a kind of an afternoon where we’d have to speak a poem or read some damn thing.

“But every Friday when my turn came up, some of the cows got out. So it got to be kind of a joke with the teachers.

“When I graduated they never gave me a diploma. During graduation when I marched up to receive my diploma all I got was an empty piece of paper.

“It was because I didn’t give a speech or recite.”

He said about 30 years ago when they were cleaning up the old Nash School House and in an old desk “they found my diploma and they mailed it to me.”

“Always through my whole life, I hated to get up and talk in front of people. It doesn’t bother me when I do surgery or any kind of work, but to get up and talk to people, I just can’t, it’s a phobia.”

Dr. Warmolts mentioned his parents never encouraged him to be a doctor.

He said, “I did as I darn well pleased like my son did. I would have liked him to be a lawyer, but he wanted to be a law enforcer.”

Marilyn worked as a nurse for a few years at Warmolts Clinic.

She said Warmolts was quite a character. He usually didn’t wear hats or socks.

It’s interesting to me that a young man who refused to speak in class left his footprint, a hospital in Oregon.

When I drive by it’s a hospital not an apartment complex.

The next article will feature Warmolts Clinic.

LOCAL LANDMARK

BY VINDE WELLS vwells@ogleocountynews.com

• Friday, September 20, 2019

State officials assured a local committee last week that, barring unfavorable weather, repairs to the Black Hawk Statue will be completed by year’s end.

Crystal Curfman, executive director of the Illinois Conservation Foundation, told the Black Hawk Art, Restoration & Development Committee Sept. 11 that the actual repairs would be underway in the next few days and should be finished “by the end of the year.”

A crew from Brand Safway, of Chicago, started erecting the scaffolding around the 108-year-old concrete landmark on Sept. 9, but as of early this week it remained shrouded in protective wrapping as it has been for most of the last five years.

Quality Restorations Inc., of Wood Dale, has been hired by the Illinois Department of Natural Resources, which has jurisdiction over the statue, to do the restoration to the surface to of the statue, which has been damaged by the ravages of time and weather.

ICF Chief Operating Officer Steve Ettinger said once the scaffolding is completely in place, the black plastic tarps will come off and the statue will be examined to see if more damage has occurred since it was wrapped late last fall.

He said even if additional restoration, the budget for the project will cover it.

“We will be on budget as far as we can foresee,” he said. “The money can’t be swept by the state.”

Committee member Roger Cain said QRI began work in June, applying various mixtures of concrete and other materials achieve the most accurate match of the original mixture.

“The bottom line is we want it done right,” said George Bellovics,

Money for the plaza will be provided by the IDNR, he said, and work on it could begin as early as next year.

The Eternal Indian, better known as Black Hawk, was created by sculptor Lorado Taft in 1910 as a tribute to Native Americans, and is situated on a high bluff overlooking the Rock River at Lowden State Park, near Oregon.

Once the restoration is complet-

ed funds will still be needed for long-term maintenance of the statue.

SPORTS

Forreston, Polo post wins, Oregon loses again Polo 44, Bunker Hill 14 The Marcos scored early and often in this Sept. 13 route in 8-man action in Polo.

Polo scored 22 points in the first quarter and 22 more in the second quarter en route to the win.

Forreston 40, Amboy 7 The Cardinals wasted little time in securing their third win of the season jumping out to a 32-0 lead at the end of the first quarter.

The game was a running clock starting a couple of minutes into the second quarter as both coaches agreed to allow the early clock.

Jordan Neuschwander started the scoring for Forreston with a 37-yard run for a touchdown. Braden Politsch scored on a 4-yard run followed by 30-yard touchdown by Ethan Mulder.

Dom Christensen then scored on a 27-yard run and a 1-yard run.

Neuschwander was the leading rusher with 51 yards on two carries followed by Mulder with 41 yards on three carries.

Dixon 46, Oregon 14 Dixon coach Dave Smith pointed his finger at a few specific things after the Sept. 13 game in which his Dixon Dukes beat Oregon 46-14 at A.C. Bowers Field.

It was the first win of the season for the Dukes.

He pointed first to the defense, which set the tone early with a fourth-down stop on the Hawks’ opening drive.

He pointed to the leadership of his quarterback Jacob Shafer, who executed the offense and got the ball in the hands of the Dukes’ playmakers.

Finally, he pointed to Nate Long, who always seemed just a moment away from a touchdown.

“He has the motor,” Smith said of Long. “Jacob did a good job of getting him the ball, and Nate just has a way of making people miss.”

It started with Shafer and Long, as the two connected on a 23-yard touchdown pass to complete the Dukes’ first drive of the game.

Oregon (0-3) looked to answer, driving across midfield before being stopped on a fourth-and-short at the Dixon 45.

Long embraced the momentum, taking the handoff from Shafer on the next play and scampering

the spread. It’s going to make them even tougher to beat.”

Andrew Herbst intercepted Shafer on the next drive and Oregon again moved the ball deep into Dixon territory.

Sebastian Quintana rumbled for a total of 83 yards on 14 carries. He and Long provided a thunder-and-lightning combination out of hte Dixon backfield that kept the Oregon defense on its heels.

“He’s hard to get down,” Schneiderman said. “And No. 8 (Long) is so quick. it’s tough combo to defend against. They took advantage of some matchups early in the game.

They had some tall receivers were problematic for our defensive backs.

We can’t mimic the speed of the game in practice because of our number problems. It took us three or four drives to get up to speed.”

POLO - FORRESTON BEAT | Tri-County Press, Forreston Journal / oglecountynews.com

55-yards for the touchdown.

“That was a huge momentum swing,” Long said. “Our defense played lights out in the first half, and that was what got us going.”

The Dukes (1-2) defense held Oregon to 74 total yards in the first half, as the Dixon offense built a comfortable 32-0 lead.

Shafer and Long connected again for the Dukes’ third touchdown, this one from 29-yards. Shafer would also have touchdown passes to Jacob Gaither and Kyker Callahan in the first half.

In all, Shafer went 15-for-18 for 216 yards and four touchdowns in the first half.

“I don’t often point out quarterbacks,” Smith said. “But the senior leadership he showed tonight was exceptional.”

Oregon, who platooned between Ryker Finch and Breccan Berns at quarterback in the first half, settled on the more run-orietned Berns to start the second half.

It paid off with an 11-play, 65-yard touchdown drive. After Dixon fumbled on the first play of the next drive, Berns threw a 31-yard pass to Finch, setting up Oregon at the Dixon 5.

“The shame of it is that we haven’t provided Ryker with the protection to show the kind of arm he has,” Oregon coach Nick Schneiderman said. “Ryker does become a threat as receiver then. Breccan is more of a runner, but he’s not afraid to throw it either. It a combination we like having.”

Oregon’s Wylee Rice scored on a 5-yard run to make the score 32-14.

Rice had 65 rushing yards.

“Wylee Rice had a big game for us on both sides of the ball,” Schneiderman said. “He’s a tough kid and kept fighting the whole game.”

Berns finished with 105 rushing yards and 61 passing yards.

“We practiced all week preparing for both quarterbacks,” Long said.

“Our coaches had us really prepared for them.”

“Oregon is a good team,” Smith said. “We weren’t sure if they were going to stick with the spread or go back to the Wing-T, but tonight it showed that they are committed to

COMMENTARY Andy Colbert

gram in girls small-school cross country, Winnebago is on the verge of being perhaps the best ever team in 1A. At the prestigious First to the Finish Invitational in Peoria on Saturday, the Indians crushed everyone in 1A. With the results put up by their top five scorers, they would have also won 2A and finished near the top of 3A. With a group composed of mainly freshmen and sophomores, ‘Bago collectively ran faster times than they did in any of their 12 state titles at Detweiller. The girls conference meet with No. 2-ranked Rock Falls and 2A power Dixon will be a dandy.

The ever-improving Oregon girls team was a respectable 26th out of 42 teams.

The BNC was well represented at Detweiller with Dawson Smith of Rock Falls winning the 1A boys race over 560 other competitors.

He is hoping to follow in the footsteps of former teammate Brayden Hamblen who was the 2016 state champ.

Andrew Harshman, who logged a ton of miles this summer, placed 86th for the Hawks.

The Dixon boys, who took fourth in 2A at Detweiller, are a huge favorite in conference cross country.

Did you know that Sam Ramirez and Mark Herman are broadcasting their 200th Oregon Hawk football game this Friday on 95.7FM? A former sports writer from Sauk Valley Media accomplished another milestone a couple weeks ago. Will Larkin finished up his series on the 100 Best Chicago Bears for the Chicago Tribune.

Each day he would have a well-research article on the top 100 players in Bear history. It was an unbelievable amount of work and the Tribune has made it into a book.

As a young man cutting his teeth at Sauk Valley, Will was diligent and humble and such a pleasure to be around. Great to hear him making it big at the Trib.

By the way, Walter Payton was selected as the No. 1 Bear with Dick Butkus No. 2.

With so much being made about the Chicago Bears search for a kicker to replace the double-doinker, my

favorite moment of the whole weekend came immediately after the team’s miraculous 16-14 win over Denver.

While interviewed about his kick with one second to win it, the first words out of Eddy Pineiro’s mouth was if anyone had doubts about the existence of Jesus Christ, here was proof. You could tell Pineiro relies upon a God for his strength.

Publicly sharing one’s faith in Christ, like a number of high school athletes have done with me over the years, is a joy to hear.

ith three weeks in the books for football, conference pictures are becoming much clearer.

Forreston and Le-Win remain heads and shoulders above everyone else in the NUIC. After blowing out Amboy with 32 first-quarter points, look for more of the same the next couple weeks for Forreston against AFC and Milledgeville.

West Carroll may give the Cardinals token opposition in week six, but it appears the only legitimate regular-season workout will be against L-W. In the Big Northern, it’s Stillman, Byron and Genoa-Kingston. That’s no surprise.

The biggest surprise of the season was Rock Falls beating Dixon 35-12.

Let’s see, Dixon beat Oregon 46-14.

Does that mean RF will beat Oregon by 55 points?

Not at all. I haven’t seen Oregon play yet, but you can’t give credence to score differentials. Oregon can beat RF. Other than SV, Byron and G-K, anyone else is capable of beating each other. Well, maybe not Mendota.

The once-proud program, with famed Viking fullback Bill Brown as an alum, has fallen completely on its face the last five years.

Like so many other towns in this part of the state, Mendota has changing demographics. Its days of being known for football and basketball are long gone.

Football especially has become a sport with the haves and have-nots, as exhibited by so many lopsided scores. I just heard a comment from an area long-timer that he expects to see more teams go to 8-man.

Here’s an observational question I am posing about football: Are the fumbles, injuries and miscues in early season games a result of lack of hitting in practice?

OBITUARIES KIM P. GOUKER Kim Patrick Gouker, 66, of Byron, died at the family home on Tuesday, Sept. 10, 2019 after a short illness.

He dedicated his life to conservative principles through public service and respect towards all members of the community of Ogle County and northern Illinois, and the stewardship of others including his two children.

He was born on April 26, 1953 in Rockford, to Kenneth L. Gouker and Lea Rose LaFleur (Gouker) Samples. Kim went on to graduate from Byron High School in 1971.

He then studied at Rock Valley College, ultimately receiving a bachelor of science degree in Economics and Math from Illinois State University.

It was at Illinois State where he learned and fell in love with the principles of conservatism that guided him through life.

RICHARD P. MARKS Richard P. Marks, 94, died peacefully on Tuesday, Sept. 3, 2019 at Bridgewater Healthcare Center, Carmel, Indiana.

Pop (Dick, Rich) was born March 14, 1925 to the late Frank and Charlotte Marks.

He was the youngest of three. His sisters Issy and Charlotte preceded him in death.

When very young he and his sisters lived in an orphanage, fortunately they were taken from there and raised by Ma Ramsey.

He is survived by his son, Larry; daughter-in-law, Jody; grandchildren, Alicea and Travis.

At age 17 Pop was proud to serve in the U.S. Marines during World War II. His division fought in the Pacific on Guadalcanal, Okinawa, and Iwo Jima.

BRUCE NIELSEN Bruce Nielsen, 65, of Forreston, died on Thursday, Sept. 12, 2019 at home following an extended illness.

He was born in Norfolk, Nebraska on Nov. 15, 1953 and was the youngest son of Jens “Leo” and Betty (Pedersen) Nielsen.

He resided there with his family until they moved to Elizabeth in 1956 and then to Hanover in 1959 on the farm.

He moved to Freeport with his family after his father died.

He then chose to come back to the community of Byron, that he cherished and where he would remain to carry out his life of public service.

Kim became a Certified Financial Planner, owning his own insurance, annuities and tax preparation business that served many loyal Ogle County and northern Illinois residents for more than 40 years.

He was most recently a Registered Representative at Asset Financial, Inc. Kim served as campaign manager for former Representative Don Manzullo, running congressional campaigns in 1990 and again in 1992, and continued to help in subsequent campaigns.

In 1992 he ran the campaign that successfully elected Don Manzullo to represent Illinois’ 16th congressional district in the U.S. House of Representatives.

He served on the Byron School Board and as the Byron City Clerk.

Kim was elected to the Ogle County Board in 1996 and became the board chairman in 2012.

While serving on the county board, Kim was instrumental in bringing about and guiding projects that built the County Judicial Center, renovated the Ogle County Courthouse, and the construction of Ogle County’s new jail that will be completed in 2020.

Kim Gouker was the proud father of Joel Aaron, 35, and Anna Patrice, 33, to whom he taught the power of silliness and to never accept limitations that society might ascribe.

He is survived by his children, of Monona, Wisconsin; brother, Michael Gouker, of Phoenix, Arizona; sister,

Victoria Davis, of Streamwood; niece, Tanya Davis, of Carol Stream; niece, Heather (Stuart) Draper, of Phoenix, Arizona; niece, Meghan (Jason) Hieger, of Phoenix, Arizona; loving companion, Heidi Swanson, of Batavia; and two great nieces, a great nephew, many aunts, uncles, cousins, and loving community friends.

18 at Cornerstone Family Church, 205 N. Peru St., Byron, with Pastor Randy Snider of the church co-officiating with the Rev. Dr. Mark Tusken, pastor of St. Mark’s Church, Geneva.

In lieu of flowers, a memorial fund has been established for Dark Horse Lodge, 1951 Swor Road, Springville, TN 38256, a retreat center for veterans.

Farrell-Holland-Gale Funeral Home, Byron, assisted the family.

And he definitely subscribed to: “Once a Marine, always a Marine.”

He married Velma (Kinnick) in the late 1940s and had one child, Larry.

In 1955 the family moved to Mt. Morris, where he worked for Kable Printing Company until he was 52 years old.

At that time, Sheriff Jerry Brooks allowed Pop to join the Ogle County Sheriff Department as a full-time deputy.

He attended police training school with all the young recruits, graduated, and became “David 40” for 10 years, his most enjoyable employment.

He always said the reason he retired at 62 was because, “They started putting computers in squad cars!”

In his spare time, he always found some project to do, and if nothing else, he would wax his car or lawn tractor.

He also enjoyed coaching soft ball in the summer youth programs.

A short time after he retired, he moved back to Indiana and briefly lived with his sister Charlotte.

To keep busy Pop worked at Carson Square Center helping to redo store units, paint, cut grass, and pick up.

He met Jodie at a community dance in Southport, fell in love, married, and were partners in life for 24 years.

Over the years they went on driving trips and touched ground in all 48 of the continental United States.

Most days, after supper, he and Jodie

would take “cool-off” rides in the car for miles and miles.

Unfortunately, Jodie passed away in February of 2017, and Pop never recovered from losing her.

Thanks goes out to the teams at Bridgewater Healthcare Center and to Heartland Hospice for caring for Pop during his last months.

A special thanks goes out to Anne with Clarity Care Advocates, who became Pop’s buddy and a fantastic help to Larry and Jody during his difficult times over this past year, as he progressed through assisted living, long term care, and his passing.

A memorial service will be held on Saturday, Sept. 21 at 1 p.m. at Forest Lawn Funeral Home, Greenwood, Indiana. Memorial contributions may be made to Clarity Care Advocates, 11650 Lantern Rd., Suite 210, Fishers, IN.
