Carrie Sue Thompson, age 49, passed away Sunday, January 8, 2023, at her home near Minneapolis, Kansas.

Carrie was born on October 21, 1973 in Iowa Falls, Iowa, the daughter of Kendall Dean Hursey and Sherrie Sueanne (Vaughn) Hursey.&nbsp;

Left to remember Carrie’s memory are her father Kendall (Diane) Hursey; her siblings, sister Christine (Rodney) Honn; brother James (Samantha) Hursey; her three daughters, Heather, Haley, and Hanna; two granddaughters; many nieces, nephews, friends and extended family members.

Carrie Sue Thompson

Terry Lee Gnad, age 72, of Ellis, 
Kansas, passed away January 8, 2023, in Ellis. She was born July 23, 
1950, in Aberdeen, South Dakota, to John Nordyke and Zella (Johnson) 
Nordyke and attended school in Lacey, Washington.

As a kid you would either find her 
fishing with her dad or playing sports, you might even catch her 
practicing ballet. She loved to cook, garden, watch sports and even talk
 about sports.&nbsp; Whenever one of the kids would call they knew they were 
in for a five minute conversation about either Gonzaga, tennis or 
soccer, even if they had no idea what she was talking about.

When she became a mom, her world became
 all about her five kids and six grandkids. She was a Brownie leader, a 
Girl Scout leader, a Cub Scout Leader, and a Boy Scout leader.&nbsp; When the
 boys got into sports, you would find her at as many games as she could 
get to, and had a standing carpool group to travel to away games. Her 
door was open to all the kids, there were times that she would feed 
numerous teen boy football players. She would grumble about all the 
shoes, but would not have changed a thing. When she was out and ran into
 a friend, she would brag about all of her kids and show off pictures of
 her grandkids.&nbsp;

She was a stubborn, giving, and 
beautifully happy person. She would not let any one help her, but would 
help everyone she could.&nbsp; Anyone that had a conversation with her, left 
uplifted and ready to take on anything that they came to talk to her 
about.&nbsp;

She is survived by, Sara (Bryant) 
Mettler, daughter, Yelm WA;&nbsp; MJ (Alyssa) Gnad, son, Belton MO; Justin 
(Elexx) Gnad, Olathe KS; Aaron (Heather Entz) Gnad, son, Salina KS; 
Sisters; Vicki (Roger) Brittingham, Olympia WA; and Sherri Morris, 
Olympia WA; grandchildren, Malik Gaskin, Tacoma WA;&nbsp; Sierra Rietcheck, 
Portland OR; Daisy Rietcheck, Yelm, WA; Oliver Entz, Salina KS;&nbsp; Myles 
and Kayslee Gnad, Olathe KS. She was preceded in death by her parents, 
sister, Penny Rae Nordyke, and daughter Libby Rae Gaskin.

A combined rosary and vigil service 
will be at 10:00 AM with funeral services at 11:00 AM on Saturday, 
January 14, 2023, at St. Mary's Catholic Church in Ellis. Saturday at

Life Sketch Taken from the Funeral Bulletin

Noah "Dale" Jantz was born on May 13, 1949, to Noah and Bertha Jantz in Turlock, CA. He&nbsp;slipped away on a beautiful, calm winter day at the age of 73 on January 9, 2023, in his&nbsp;daughter's home Hillsboro, KS.

Dad's growing up years were spent on a farm on Legion Ave in Livingston then on Palm Ave in&nbsp;Winton. At the age of 7, his mother, Bertha, passed away, leaving him a very lonely boy. His&nbsp;Dad, Noah, remarried several months later to Linda Siemens/Millsap. Linda- became a mother to&nbsp;him and nurtured him through the remainder of his childhood.

&nbsp;With this union, Dad gained a&nbsp;stepbrother, Don Millsap, to whom he became very close. On April 4, 1976, Dad lost his stepmother Linda, and his sister Joan in a tragic accident. Dale's father married again to&nbsp;Elizabeth Koehn in June of 1977.

At the age of nine, Dad gave his heart to the Lord and was baptized on April 3, 1960, by&nbsp;Minister Jesse Koehn at Livingston, CA. Dad did not live a perfect Christian life, but he had a&nbsp;real desire to serve God.&nbsp;In March of 1968, Dad participated in mandatory C/O service at Oklahoma City during the&nbsp;Vietnam War.&nbsp;He made many friends and memories during this time. We often enjoyed listening&nbsp;and laughing as Dad would retell experiences from his service days.

Dad got acquainted with our Mom through mutual friends while she was working at Grace&nbsp;Home. They were married on October 4, 1970, and spent 52 years together. Five daughters&nbsp;were born to this home, and one passed away in infancy. Dad always dreamed of having a son;&nbsp;when we girls got married, he got four of them. We will not forget how his face lit up whenever&nbsp;he saw one of them. We often felt like he preferred them over us!

Dad did a variety of jobs, including construction, farm, and factory work. He was a hard worker;&nbsp;punctuality and showing up for work were very important to him.

Dad was a lover of people. He would often invite impromptu company over, and we would drop&nbsp;in after church at one of his friends. We also spent many times with his brother. Bob, Betty, and&nbsp;heir family were always very special to him. Often, we would eat Sunday supper with them and&nbsp;still end up there after church. Dad had a real love for young people and always enjoyed our&nbsp;friends. Dad and Mom were youth advisers three times at Livingston. We have many good&nbsp;memories of the youth coming over after church and Dad entertaining us with his popcorn pan&nbsp;in the kitchen.

Dad had a special love of animals and had his unique lingo for talking to them.&nbsp;

Special times were spent with friends learning to write music and teaching us girls to sing. He would often sit&nbsp;in his chair in the evenings and sing solo. We will not forget the Sunday morning serenades he&nbsp;would sing to wake us up.

&nbsp;Dad's temper was quick at times, but he was also quick to say sorry&nbsp;and readily gave compliments on a job well done. 

Family devotions were always very important&nbsp;to Dad.

In March of 1994, we relocated to Durham, KS, where he made many new friends in the&nbsp;community.

&nbsp;Dale enjoyed the Morning Star congregation and sat on the front bench numerous&nbsp;times, filling the role of song leader. We will remember his signature style of leading songs.

In June of 2019, Mom and Dad moved to Hillsboro, KS. In December of that year, Dad entered&nbsp;retirement when he quit Barkman Honey. With too much time on his hands, he washed dishes at&nbsp;the local college. In his later years, coffee time at Wendy's with friends was a highlight.

Dad suffered a debilitating stroke in February 2021, leaving him helpless. Although the stroke&nbsp;altered his personality, at times, we still could see the old Dad.

Box 266, Hillsboro, KS 67063.Life Sketch Taken from the Funeral BulletinNoah "Dale" Jantz was born on May 13, 1949, to Noah and Bertha Jantz in Turlock, CA. He&nbsp;slipped away on a beautiful, calm winter day at the age of 73 on January 9, 2023, in his&nbsp;daughter's home Hillsboro, KS.Dad's growing up years were spent on a farm on Legion Ave in Livingston then on Palm Ave in&nbsp;Winton. At the age of 7, his mother, Bertha, passed away, leaving him a very lonely boy. His&nbsp;Dad, Noah, remarried several months later to Linda Siemens/Millsap. Linda- became a mother to&nbsp;him and nurtured him through the remainder of his childhood.&nbsp;With this union, Dad gained a&nbsp;stepbrother, Don Millsap, to whom he became very close. On April 4, 1976, Dad lost his stepmother Linda, and his sister Joan in a tragic accident. Dale's father married again to&nbsp;Elizabeth Koehn in June of 1977.At the age of nine, Dad gave his heart to the Lord and was baptized on April 3, 1960, by&nbsp;Minister Jesse Koehn at Livingston, CA. Dad did not live a perfect Christian life, but he had a&nbsp;real desire to serve God.&nbsp;In March of 1968, Dad participated in mandatory C/O service at Oklahoma City during the&nbsp;Vietnam War.&nbsp;He made many friends and memories during this time. We often enjoyed listening&nbsp;and laughing as Dad would retell experiences from his service days.Dad got acquainted with our Mom through mutual friends while she was working at Grace&nbsp;Home. They were married on October 4, 1970, and spent 52 years together. Five daughters&nbsp;were born to this home, and one passed away in infancy. Dad always dreamed of having a son;&nbsp;when we girls got married, he got four of them. We will not forget how his face lit up whenever&nbsp;he saw one of them. We often felt like he preferred them over us!Dad did a variety of jobs, including construction, farm, and factory work. He was a hard worker;&nbsp;punctuality and showing up for work were very important to him.Dad was a lover of people. He would often invite impromptu company over, and we would drop&nbsp;in after church at one of his friends. We also spent many times with his brother. Bob, Betty, and&nbsp;heir family were always very special to him. Often, we would eat Sunday supper with them and&nbsp;still end up there after church. Dad had a real love for young people and always enjoyed our&nbsp;friends. Dad and Mom were youth advisers three times at Livingston. We have many good&nbsp;memories of the youth coming over after church and Dad entertaining us with his popcorn pan&nbsp;in the kitchen.Dad had a special love of animals and had his unique lingo for talking to them.&nbsp;Special times were spent with friends learning to write music and teaching us girls to sing. He would often sit&nbsp;in his chair in the evenings and sing solo. We will not forget the Sunday morning serenades he&nbsp;would sing to wake us up.&nbsp;Dad's temper was quick at times, but he was also quick to say sorry&nbsp;and readily gave compliments on a job well done. Family devotions were always very important&nbsp;to Dad.In March of 1994, we relocated to Durham, KS, where he made many new friends in the&nbsp;community.&nbsp;Dale enjoyed the Morning Star congregation and sat on the front bench numerous&nbsp;times, filling the role of song leader. We will remember his signature style of leading songs.In June of 2019, Mom and Dad moved to Hillsboro, KS. In December of that year, Dad entered&nbsp;retirement when he quit Barkman Honey. With too much time on his hands, he washed dishes at&nbsp;the local college. In his later years, coffee time at Wendy's with friends was a highlight.Dad suffered a debilitating stroke in February 2021, leaving him helpless. Although the stroke&nbsp;altered his personality, at times, we still could see the old Dad.We, as a family, are very thankful for the time we spent over the recent holidays with Dad. We&nbsp;fondly remember special moments we had.Those left with precious memories are his wife Kathy, four daughters,&nbsp; Marla and Troy Wiebe,&nbsp;Durham, KS, Cyndi and Lance Nichols, Jerome, ID, Charlene and Greg Wedel, Tampa, KS,&nbsp;Ruthanne and John Wells, Hillsboro, KS,&nbsp; brother Robert and Betty Jantz, Livingston, CA,&nbsp;two brothers‐in‐law, Anthony and Joan Toews, Turlock, CA, George and Sue Toews, Turlock,&nbsp;CA, three sisters‐in‐law, Rose and Phil Shehan, Sacramento, CA, Linda, and Harley Koehn,&nbsp;Montezuma, KS, Janice and Phil Jantz, Turlock, CA, ten grandchildren, nieces, nephews and&nbsp;many friends.Preceding him in death are father Noah B.
