He made hundreds of trips to Canada fishing for walleye, and also hunted pheasant, turkey, deer, elk, and moose. One of his life's highlights were the years he and Naomi were counselors for church-sponsored canoe camps into the Boundary Waters. Through these trips, they developed many enduring friendships with the teens they chaperoned.Survivors include his children Judy (Steve) Twigley of Madison, Dan (Lori) Jacobson of Anderson, South Carolina, and Jane (David) Dumke of Rudolph; grandchildren, Jordan (Eric) Pupols, Mark Dumke, Brett (Sam) Taber and Kate Dumke, great-grandson, Caden Pupols, and sisters-in-law, Marilyn (Gerald) Matthews, and Zelda (Richard) Guzman.The memorial service will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 13, 2017, at Crossview Church in Wisconsin Rapids with the Rev.
