Delbert passed away Friday, March 17, 2023 while in the company of family and friends at McPherson Center for Health. He had attained the age of 93 years old. Delbert was born in Wamego, Kansas on May 22, 1929, to Ruth (Berroth) and Matt Bohn. He was one of eight children, Charles, Jean, Bernice, Dave, Adella, Judy, and Larry.

Delbert attended school at Rural District 48 in Alma, Kansas and took his first job at Hoffinstein Construction. 

He was united in his first marriage to Ilene Glenn in 1948. They were blessed with four daughters; Cindy, Tina, Debbie, and Toni. Delbert was united in marriage to Maxine Wash on November 21, 1965. Maxine had two children, Carolyn and Kenneth. Delbert made his home in McPherson, Kansas with his wife Maxine and six children.

He drove for various companies including Otis Bryant Trucking, Don Linden Trucking, Ryan Reiff, and Farmland hauling freight, gasoline, propane, and ammonia. Delbert had an exemplary driving record totaling three million miles with no accidents. He had a great eye because he never missed anything lying on the side of the road. His sheds were always full of screwdrivers, tarp straps, wrenches, pliers, and more of the items he found during his time over the road. 

When he wasn’t driving a truck, he loved to spend time with his family and was an avid gardener. He was known for sharing his garden spoils and would deliver them to friends and family in the area. He also loved tractors, spending time at the VFW and Legion having dinner with friends, and feeding squirrels and birds in his backyard.

On Sunday, March 19, 2023, Linda Padgett, a beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, wife,&nbsp;and friend, passed away at the age of 83. Linda was born on October 2, 1939, in Los Angeles, California, to Boyd and Phyliss Davis.

Linda graduated from high school in Southgate, California, and attended Compton College. 

Linda&nbsp;married Thomas Padgett and moved to Abilene, Kansas, to raise her children. 

After the kids were grown&nbsp;and started their own lives, Linda and Tom enjoyed several years living abroad in Germany and traveling throughout Europe before returning to Abilene.

After her return, Linda worked as a cook at Sterling&nbsp;House in Abilene and at St. Francis in Salina where the kids called her Grandma. She also worked at&nbsp;Green Ford and at Ron Holmes Insurance agency. After retirement, Linda enjoyed volunteering at&nbsp;Impact Sports and Fitness and the Abilene Memorial Hospital gift shop as well as the gift shop in Old Abilene Carousel.

Everywhere Linda worked, her coworkers fell in love with her. She was a sassy, quirky&nbsp;lady who did her job and always expected the same of those around her.

Linda enjoyed reading, attending arts and crafts festivals, visiting casinos, and watching football, but her&nbsp;favorite pastime was spending time with family and friends. Whether it was wrestling, basketball, football, gymnastics, choir or band concerts, or a theater performance, if her children or grandchildren&nbsp;were participating, Linda was there.

She was the biggest Chiefs and KSU fan! If they were playing on TV, the world came to a stand still until the game was over. And boy, did she enjoy letting everyone know&nbsp;when the ref “got it wrong.” Game time was so much fun with Linda around, and we’re not sure what&nbsp;these teams will do without her here to cheer them on.

Linda is survived by her husband of fifty-one years, Thomas, her children Mike (Trina) McCarty of&nbsp;Manhattan, KS, and Mary (Dennis) Van Dorn of McPherson, KS, a brother, Boyd (Lynn) Davis of&nbsp;California, two sisters, Bonney (Parker) Bence and Jeannie Morris, both of Washington, nieces and&nbsp;nephews, five grandchildren, and five great-grandchildren.

Linda was preceded in death by her parents.

Linda Padgett was the best of us and would give her heart, the clothes off her back, and a room in her&nbsp;home to those who needed it. She will be missed by us all!

The family will hold a private celebration of her life at a later date.&nbsp;&nbsp;

ELLSWORTH - Marilyn Jo Frevert was born July 7, 1936, in Ellsworth, Kansas, the daughter of Lloyd B. and Emma (Dlouhy) Evans. She passed away Tuesday, March 21, 2023, at Villa Grace Nursing Home in Ellsworth, Kansas, at the age of 86.

Marilyn was raised in Holyrood, Kansas, and graduated from Holyrood High School in 1954. She then attended Fort Hays State College and received a two-year teaching certificate. 

On June 16, 1957, Marilyn was united in marriage to Benjamin Richard Frevert in Holyrood. They resided in Hays, Kansas City, and Topeka before moving to Wilson in 1967. Four children were born to their union, and Marilyn stayed home with them until all four were in school. 

She then returned to Fort Hays State University and earned her bachelor’s degree in elementary education. Marilyn taught at Dorrance Grade School for many years, then finished her career at Wilson Grade School. She loved teaching and loved her “kids,” taking a personal interest in them. She was a substitute teacher for several years after retirement.

Over the years, Marilyn was an active member of her church and community. She was a member of Immanuel Lutheran Church in Wilson where she had sung in the choir, belonged to Service Circle, and led the youth choir while her kids were growing up.

 Marilyn was a former member of Mother’s Club, planted and cared for the flower beds at the Lions Club Park for many years, and volunteered at the Wilson Senior Center. She performed with the Sweet Adeline’s Choir in Lyons and said it was the best thing she’d ever done for herself. After moving to Ellsworth, Marilyn attended the United Methodist Church with Daran.

Marilyn was a loving, supportive mother who was proud of her children and their accomplishments in life. One of her greatest joys was becoming a grandmother. She rarely missed a birthday party or activity they were involved in. Her grandkids spent many happy hours playing at grandma’s house, enjoying fun and games upstairs, good food, and grandma’s orange lemonade. She was proud of them and happy to see them grow up, graduate from college, and find their soulmates.

Marilyn was preceded in death by her husband Ben; parents, Lloyd and Emma; and sister Loretta Keyser.

Survivors include her children Ben Frevert, Jr. of Fayettville, NC, Daran Frevert of Ellsworth, Dori Pauls (Rick) of Divide, CO, and Stephanie Stoppel (Dave) of Wilson; six grandchildren, Ryan Stoppel (Randi) of Wilson, Zane Pauls (Tara) of Divide, CO, Emmie Pauls (Dale Clowe) of Fort McMurray, AB Canada, Kylie Keeley (Mitch) of La Crosse, Adrienne Roehl (Garret) of Dighton, and Jake Stoppel (Kamri) of Wilson; six great-grandchildren, Charlotte Pauls, Ronni and Ray Stoppel, Riley House and Dakota Clowe, and Lainey Keeley, with one on the way in August. Marilyn is also survived by her brother Loren Evans (Barbara) of Flower Mound, TX; brother-in-law Melvin Keyser (Lucy) of Wichita; several nephews and nieces and their families, in addition to other relatives and friends.

Susan Kay Peters of Scandia, Kansas passed away at home, surrounded by love on March 20, 2023 at the age of 76. She was born on July 4, 1946 in Clay Center, Kansas to Floyd Chester and Vivian May (Taylor) Tinkham.

She grew up in Washington, Kansas and attended Washington schools. She went on to attend Kansas State University until she wed her high school sweetheart, Duane Leroy Peters. They were married&nbsp;in Washington at the First United Methodist Church on April 17, 1965. This union brought two children, Steven Michael&nbsp;and Amy Sue.

Susan's life was a true testament to her character and upbringing, and spent her lifetime caring for family and friends.&nbsp;

&nbsp;Susan cherished her time spent with her children and grandchildren. She instilled in her family that the simple things in life will always bring you joy that will last beyond a lifetime. She taught them the art of making a house a home, the magic of finding pictures in the clouds, the beauty in every rock, the healing powers of music, and the simple comfort of a good cup of coffee. Friends and family always knew the door was open and to come on in.

Susan was preceded in death by her parents. 

She is survived by her husband Duane, of Scandia, Kansas; her children, Steve Peters, of Scandia, Kansas, and Amy (Bryan) Rickard, of Scandia, Kansas; grandchildren Ian (Kaylee) Peters, of Riley, Kansas, Taylor (Aaron) Racette, of Oakley, Kansas, Lane Peters, of Hays, Kansas, Max Rickard, of Scandia, Kansas, Macy Rickard (Zach) of Randall, Kansas, and Miles Rickard, of Scandia, Kansas; great-grandchildren Frankie Racette, of Oakley, Kansas, and Truman Peters, of Riley, Kansas; and brother Dennis Tinkham of Wichita, Kansas.

Vernon was preceded in death by his parents Carl and Anna (Stucky) Holloway; his siblings Sherman Holloway of McPherson, KS, Herman Holloway of Roxbury, KS, Carl Holloway, Jr. of McPherson, KS, Bobby Lawrence Holloway of Chapman, KS, and Marieta Poston of Hillsboro, TX; his wife, Peggy; his daughter Carla (Rowse) of Wichita KS; and grandsons Michael Rowse at infancy and Adam Jantz of McPherson, KS.

&nbsp; Jane Frances (Zey) Veal passed away peacefully on March 20, 2023, at the age of 82, at her home in Abilene, Kansas, surrounded by family. Jane was born on November 3, 1940, to Louis and Pearl (Garten) Zey. 

Jane and Stan Veal were married on April 19th, 1958, and would have celebrated their 65th anniversary this April. 

In childhood, Jane enjoyed all sports, barrel racing, horse showing, and square dancing – both on and off-horseback. Swimming and diving competitions and cooking were fun pastimes she also enjoyed. She was Water Safety Instructor certified and taught adult swimming lessons and diving at Abilene pools. Her love of horses, trap shooting and hunting with Stan were interests she passed down to children and grandchildren. Jane was co-owner of Veal Construction Co., Abilene Truss Distributers, and Jesse Jane’s Trading Company with her husband Stan.

She earned her master’s in education from Kansas State University. She completed her master of science reading specialist and psychology degrees as well as two years post-graduate studies. She taught school in Abilene, Solomon and Chapman School districts for over 30 years. Jane was a member of the American Federation of Teachers organization and named to Who’s Who Among America’s Teachers. She was a past member of Sand Springs Saddle Club of Abilene. She loved the Wild Bill Hickock Rodeo and Fair and was the Abilene parade flag bearer on horseback several times. She also enjoyed collecting, appraising and selling antiques.

Jane was a member of Saint Andrew’s Altar Society at Saint Andrew’s Catholic Church. Her faith was a very important facet of her life. She often prayed the rosary in the car or while traveling, which was frequent as she loved to travel with Stan visiting places such as Ireland, Mexico, France, Italy, Tahiti and the Cook Islands. 

She also loved traveling to watch her children and grandchildren’s sporting events which included swimming, basketball, football, tennis, baseball, power lifting, track and horse showing. Anyone who spoke to Jane heard about all of her children’s and grandchildren’s achievements. In addition to horses and antiques, art was a big interest. She loved drawing, painting watercolors, and sculpture. She was a lifelong teacher and learner; researching antiques and furthering her education in graduate school were important pastimes to Jane. She passed along her love of reading, art, horses and dogs to her children and grandchildren. In her own words, she believed her “crowning achievements” were her three children, seven grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren. She is survived by her husband Stan Ralph Veal, sisters Irene Glennon and Linda Zey, and children Blain Christopher Veal and wife Laurie, Stacia Ann (Veal) Nelson and husband Doug, Molly Michelle Irene (Veal) Veach and husband John, and grandchildren Taelor (Veal) Herrman and husband Shawn, Bridgette (Veal) Wuthnow and husband Nathan, Anna Nelson and husband Steve, Abigail (Nelson) Burns and husband Kevin, Addison Nelson and husband Collin, Sarah Veach, Benjamin Veach, her seven great-grandchildren, numerous nieces and nephews, and other beloved relatives.

Her legacy will live on in the hearts of her family, friends, and all her students.

Mass of Christian Burial will be 10:30 a.m., Saturday, March 25, 2023 at St. Andrew’s Catholic Church followed by a lunch. Parish Rosary will be recited at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday morning before Mass. 

The family suggests memorials be given to the Hospice of Dickinson County, St. Andrew’s Catholic Church or to St. Andrew’s Catholic School. Memorials may be dropped off or mailed to Danner Funeral Home, 501 N. Buckeye, Abilene, Kansas 67410. 

Online condolences may be sent to www.dannerfuneralhome.net.&nbsp;&nbsp;

She loved the Wild Bill Hickock Rodeo and Fair and was the Abilene parade flag bearer on horseback several times. She also enjoyed collecting, appraising and selling antiques. Jane was a member of Saint Andrew’s Altar Society at Saint Andrew’s Catholic Church. Her faith was a very important facet of her life. She often prayed the rosary in the car or while traveling, which was frequent as she loved to travel with Stan visiting places such as Ireland, Mexico, France, Italy, Tahiti and the Cook Islands. She also loved traveling to watch her children and grandchildren’s sporting events which included swimming, basketball, football, tennis, baseball, power lifting, track and horse showing. Anyone who spoke to Jane heard about all of her children’s and grandchildren’s achievements. In addition to horses and antiques, art was a big interest. She loved drawing, painting watercolors, and sculpture. She was a lifelong teacher and learner; researching antiques and furthering her education in graduate school were important pastimes to Jane. She passed along her love of reading, art, horses and dogs to her children and grandchildren.
