<a href="https://www.stockhamfamily.com/obituaries/mark-reese">Mark D. Reese Obituary 2022 - Stockham Funeral Home (stockhamfamily.com)</a>

Mark Dale Reese, 59, of McPherson, KS, passed away on Tuesday, December 27, 2022, at his residence.&nbsp; 

In his earlier career, he worked for Hedlund Electric and Industrial Electric.&nbsp; For the past 32 years, he had worked as a pipeline technician and cavern specialist for MAPCO/Wiliams Energy.

Mark was born on September 22, 1963, in McPherson, KS, the son of Harold Dale and Margaret Ann (Petron) Reese.&nbsp; 

He graduated from McPherson High School in 1981.&nbsp; He continued his education at North Central Kansas Area Vocational School and received an electrical degree.

On September 27, 1986, Mark was united in marriage to Nellie Frances Briney at St. Joseph Catholic Church in McPherson.&nbsp; This union was blessed with three children, Josh, Jacob, and Jared.

He was a member of St. Joseph Catholic Church, Knights of Columbus, Ducks Unlimited, and Pheasants Forever.

Faith, family, and the great outdoors were the center of Mark’s life. His love of the land started when he learned the ropes of the family farm out at Roxbury. That land served as the starting place for his passion of fishing and hunting. If he wasn’t scouting the perfect buck or reeling in the big catch, he was sitting in a lawn chair next to the camper soaking in nature, sharing a drink with his wife and sons, or taking in the sounds of his grandkids playing in the dirt. From hunting and fishing to camping, Mark’s greatest joy came from sharing his hobbies with his kids and grandkids. The best memories were made on his boat, in the deer stand, or with a fishing pole in hand.

Survivors include his loving wife of 36 years, Nellie of the home; three sons, Josh (Dara) Reese of McPherson, KS, Jacob (Shelby) Reese of Wichita, KS, and Jared (RaeLyn) of McPherson, KS; five grandchildren, Jackson, Randilyn, Reagan, Blakely, and Dawson; his sister Laura (Kelly) Vogts of McPherson, KS; and nieces and nephews Adam (Heather) Vogts, Abby (Taylor) Bauer, Landon Vogts, and Anna Vogts; and many friends.

He was preceded in death by his parents Harold and Margaret Reese, and mother-in-law Florence Briney.

The family will receive friends from 5:00 p.m. until 7:00 p.m., Monday, January 2, 2023, with rosary to follow at St. Joseph Catholic Church.&nbsp; A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at 10:30 a.m., Tuesday, January 3, at St. Joseph Catholic Church with Fr. Benjamin Shockey officiating.&nbsp; Burial will follow at McPherson Cemetery.

Memorial donations may be given to St. Joseph Catholic Church or St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in care of Stockham Family Funeral Home, 205 North Chestnut, McPherson, KS 67460.

<a href="https://www.chaputbuoy.com/obituary/sonja-risetter">Obituary | Sonja (Blackwood) Risetter of Junction City, Kansas | Chaput-Buoy Funeral Home (chaputbuoy.com)</a>

Sonja Marie (Blackwood) Risetter, age 74, of Junction City, Kansas, passed away in her home with her loving husband and children by her side. She was born in Concordia, Kansas on May 27, 1948 to Dean and Madeleine (Kegle) Blackwood.

William and Sonja married on November 21, 1978. Along with her two children, Ray Dean and Renay from her previous marriage, they would go on to have William J., and the "twins," Tara (Fields) and Tonja (Kearns).

Sonja was a dedicated registered nurse, and found her calling in serving others. Before being diagnosed with cancer in 2016, she spent over 22 years as a nurse at Irwin Army Community Hospital where she managed several clinics, and took great pride in serving our nation’s military members and their families. Although Sonja enjoyed traveling the world as her husband served in the military, she made it known that after retirement from the Army, she desired settling down near her beloved family in Kansas.

Sonja was the oldest of twelve born to Dr. Dean and Madeleine Blackwood. Sonja enjoyed and took great pride in attending family-related events, such as sporting events, concerts, or various graduations. In her healthier days, she enjoyed playing bingo or trying her luck at the casino. She also enjoyed bragging to co-workers and her friends about her children and grandchildren.

Sonja was preceded in death by her father Dr. Dean Blackwood.
