Saying goodbye to Tom Casperson.

Being the owner of a resort has such wonderful rewards. The best is getting to know the guests and being a part of their family adventures. The hard part of being a resorter is saying goodbye. This week we lost Tom Casperson to his 7 year battle with cancer. Tom was a great role model for a husband, dad & grandpa. The Caspersons & Kalmes would spend each fall at the resort until Tom got too sick to come. He would come into the lodge and tell stories about the family. He was so proud of his group. He would be so excited about Jordy's catch & muskie follows, the grand kids crafts and the dinners they all shared together. Each year I would help take a family photo to document their trip together. Thank you Tom for the great memories and for being a part of our resort family. You and your special family are in our thoughts and prayers.

We will be dedicating a tree in Tom's memory here at Mantrap Lodge.
