Kids Chef Lily Kilfoy of Madison taught a dozen children how to make healthy
snacks using ripe strawberries at the Stoughton Area Youth Center on Aug. 9.
The group learned to make salad, dressing, quesadillas and salsa with fresh
ingredients. Her goal is to expose children to the many benefits of cooking
through hands-on experiences that develop skills to be used for life. Above,

Bakken, Administrative Assistant, Tara Potter, Continuing Care Coordinator, and Claudia Murray, Certified Advance Planning Consultant.
Each person listed is dedicated to providing their best to each family that
walks through Cresss doors.
Jessica Dosch Pharo, manager of the funeral home, has been devoted
to helping the families of Cress Funeral & Cremation Service since 1998.
She was born in Madison and graduated from McFarland High School.
She attended Milwaukee Area Technical College and received her Associates Degree in Funeral Service. Jessica is active in the community as
the Director of Leadership Stoughton, Ambassador for McFarland Chamber of Commerce and President of the Verona PTO. It is very rewarding
to me to be able to help people at such a difficult time. It truly is an honor
to work with and get to know the people of Stoughton and the surrounding communities.
Matthew Cress is a 3rdgeneration licensed funeral director. He graduated from Stoughton High School in 2002 and from Worsham College
of Mortuary Science in 2011. Matthew has lived in Stoughton since his
family moved here in 1992. In middle school Matt would help the funeral home with the flower beds, lawn care, and on services. Matt recently
married My Le Ha at St. Anns Catholic Church in June of this year. I
feel honored that I had the pleasure to work alongside and learn from
Paul Olson. Both Paul and my Grandpa shared the same philosophy of
Service and Dedication to help others.
Bill Clark manages the C.A.R.E. Specialist team. He and his wife,
Pamela, have lived in Stoughton for the past 27 years, coming from
northern Illinois. They have three children and seven grandchildren, all
living here in Stoughton. Bill has been active in the community over the
years with Stoughton Rotary and as Scoutmaster of Boy Scout Troop
164. His hobbies include SCUBA diving and skiing. His professional
career spans over 40 years being a licensed funeral director/embalmer in
two states, Illinois and Wisconsin. Bill has a bachelors degree in Business Management and Communication from Concordia University and is
certified as a SCUBA Instructor with PADI.
Connie Bakken has been at Cress for four years as an Administrative
Assistant. She is from the Platteville area and now lives in Stoughton.
She is also a volunteer at the Stoughton Opera house and Care Net Pregnancy Center of Dane County. Connie is an active member of LakeView Church in Stoughton and enjoys being a part of the Welcome Team
and Missions Team, recently they traveled to the Dominican Republic in
October 2013. Being a part of the Cress team is a great experience and I
am honored to be able to help.
Tara Potter heads up our exclusive Continuing Care program, and
has been doing so since its inception in 2010. Tara works closely with
all of the families Cress serves to offer support through the transitional
period people face after the loss of a loved one. She is a proud mother
of three, breast cancer survivor and active in many areas. Each family I
meet through my job, teaches me something new about life and living. I
consider it a privilege to provide support and useful tools during this time
of transition.
Claudia Murray joined Cress Funeral & Cremation Service in 1999
as an Advance Planning Consultant and is passionate about educating
families about the benefits of advance funeral planning. She believes preplanning is a wonderful gift for loved ones. Her life has been enriched
by meeting so many wonderful families and doing a job she truly enjoys.

went just 2-4 in championship
matches against Waunakee.
Monona Grove finished
second to the Crusaders (20)
at conference with 15 points,
while Milton (19) came in
third.
Conference outlook
Madison Edgewood, Milton and Oregon look to be the
top teams with Stoughton in
the Badger South this season.
Edgewood returns four of
five starters from its WIAA
Division 2 state championship team, including defending champion senior Caroline
Lake.
Senior Tess Hackworthy,
who would have shot a 152
at state if it wasnt for a scorecard mistake that disqualified
her, junior Katie Arneson (tied
for 23rd at state) and junior
Maddy Morrison (27th at
state) also return.
Milton gets back three starters from last season, including
state qualifiers senior Maddie
McCue and junior CheyAnn
Knudsen. McCue was 11th
at state, while Knudsen was
15th. Senior Natalie Gunnink
is also back.
Oregon returns playoff
starters junior Jenny Johnson and sophomore Taylor
McCorkle. Senior Ashley
Second baseman Doug Vike slides into home plate safely for the
game-tying run in the bottom of the ninth inning. Members of
the Albion Tigers react to the call at plate from the bench in the
background.
