He’s helped with two documentaries and covered the story of Father Kapaun for decades. “It is easy to look at him from a religious perspective or a Catholic perspective, but I think his story can be an inspiration for anybody, even somebody that is not religious” Heying said. “Kapaun’s life is a great example of selfless service to others. I think Kapaun’s life is very inspiring.”
