THE NORTHBROOK TOWER<br />
Northbrook couple killed<br />
by son in Las Vegas<br />
A Northbrook couple<br />
and their son were found<br />
dead Wednesday, June 1,<br />
in what police believe to<br />
be a double murder-suicide<br />
in Las Vegas.<br />
The bodies of Arthur<br />
Wulf, 69, Jan Morgan-<br />
Wulf, 66, and Aaron Wulf,<br />
36, were discovered after<br />
police received a call of<br />
a domestic disturbance at<br />
10:49 a.m.<br />
When officers arrived<br />
for a welfare check, they<br />
discovered Aaron dead<br />
of an apparent gunshot<br />
wound on a second-floor<br />
landing and the couple deceased<br />
inside an upstairs<br />
bedroom.<br />
The parents had been<br />
stabbed and shot, police<br />
said.<br />
The initial investigation<br />
indicated the son killed his<br />
parents and turned the gun<br />
on himself.<br />
behind the scenes, but the<br />
knowledge and positive<br />
attitude he brings to work<br />
every day translates into<br />
a great experience for our<br />
patients. We are an outstanding<br />
hospital, thanks<br />
to our dedicated employees<br />
like Dan. We are fortunate<br />
to have Dan on our<br />
team.”<br />
Nicknamed “The Legend”<br />
by many of his coworkers,<br />
Niskanen returned<br />
the compliment:<br />
“Every day I get to go to<br />
a place I believe in. In a<br />
way, I am helping our patients<br />
and making lives<br />
better. I love the job. I love<br />
the people. I can’t imagine<br />
working anywhere else.”<br />
But, he added, “I need to<br />
slow down a little bit.”<br />

THE HIGHLAND PARK LANDMARK<br />
Highland Park’s dog<br />
‘leader’ a sight in town<br />
If you drive around<br />
Highland Park much,<br />
you’ve probably noticed<br />
Jeremy Caplan out walking<br />
his canine friends in<br />
an orderly, well-mannered<br />
pack, as many as 12<br />
abreast.<br />
The 29-year-old lifelong<br />
Highland Park resident,<br />
owner of Sawyer’s<br />
Dog House, specializes<br />
in behavioral training<br />
techniques and “constructive<br />
socialization” that<br />
strengthen the bond between<br />
owner and dog and<br />
fortify relationships.<br />
He begins a client relationship<br />
with a “behavior<br />
consultation,” which is<br />
designed to give the owners<br />
of dogs of all ages and<br />
sizes the skills needed to<br />
effectively communicate<br />
with their pet.<br />
“I teach people how to<br />
be present with their dog<br />
and how to express their<br />
confidence and their assertive<br />
energy, which is what<br />
dogs need,” said Caplan,<br />
who is also a certified instructor<br />
in Hatha, a particular<br />
type of yoga.<br />
“What I offer that most<br />
programs don’t is training<br />
amongst other dogs,”<br />
he said, adding that those<br />
walks are a way for dogs<br />
to learn valuable social<br />
skills. “Each dog becomes<br />
a member of the pack,<br />
which allows their K9 instincts<br />
to be fulfilled. This<br />
is a great opportunity for<br />
young dogs to learn how a<br />
pack functions, respecting<br />
other members of the pack<br />
and learning how to walk<br />
with a human leader.<br />

French Fry<br />
Chris Pullam, Editor<br />
Hello err’body. My<br />
name is French Fry,<br />
but most people call<br />
me Sunny because<br />
I’m orange like the<br />
sun. I have two<br />
adopted younger<br />
siblings, Zonk and<br />
S’maxwell, that I<br />
only barely get along<br />
with. They’re too playful and I just want to sleep<br />
and cuddle all day. But they’re okay. I like to play<br />
outside on the porch and driveway, but I don’t like<br />
the grass.<br />

retire after 50 years<br />
