Wayne and Dee Kapple

Wayne and Dee Kapple were chosen as Family of the Month for July for their work as case managers following the Mena tornado disaster.  They have been married 53 years and moved to the Village from a northwest suburb of Chicago in 2002.  Wayne joined Council 10208 in January, 2005, and soon thereafter became a 4th Degree member.

Wayne and Dee have been members of the Disaster Response Team since its inception, in which they serve as case managers.  In that role they have made a total of eight 185-mile round trips to Mena, both to dispense information for Catholic Charities and more recently to resolve the cases of individual victims.  To bring these cases to closure, they both attended meetings in Mena and also worked the cases by phone from their home.

Wayne is a member of the Men's Club, the Chantecleers, and the Cedar Mountain Singers.  Dee is a member on the Ladies of the Sacred Heart, co-chair of her guild, and also sings with the Cedar Mountain Singers.

Congratulations, Wayne and Dee, and thanks for your dedicated community service to the residents of Mena as you represented not only Catholic Charities of Arkansas, but also Sacred Heart of Jesus Catholic Church and the Knights of Columbus.
