Michael Zeidler is not your average 64-year-old. He starts everyday at 5 a.m. with a 6 mile run and finishes by a quarter of (that’s a 7.5 minute per mile pace). This fact alone puts Michael far above the norm for a sexagenarian. Might as well mention that he’s won Gold at the Badger State Games 8 times and took 5th in a National competition in Illinois recently.

Kari Behling
It’s not necessary to ask Kari Behling what is precious to her. Within a few minutes in her presence it’s impossible not to feel the love and acceptance in the air. Her family, foster kids, foster families and community take up the majority of space in her heart. Even while suffering from a nasty cold she took the time to be interviewed for this “Spotlight” because of the potential for spreading the word.
