Sharon Kay (Cook) Adee passed away December 27, at her home, surrounded by family, concluding a three-year hard fought battle with cancer. She was born March 19, 1952 in Abilene to Lawrence and Verna (Beadleston) Cook.&nbsp;

Sharon had the opportunity to travel to 35 states prior to graduating from Abilene High School in 1970. On January 12, 1974, she married her high school sweetheart and best friend James (Jim) Adee. Their early married life was spent in Prescott, AZ where their daughter Ashley was born in 1981. Son Ryan followed in 1982 after returning home to Abilene. In December of 1999, Sharon entered her favorite role, Grandma, when first grandson, Braden, was born. Jasmine, Summer, Slade, Katelyn, and Drake followed. In 2021, she was promoted to “great” grandma when Rowan and Harper were born. Sharon graduated from the Academy of Hair Design in 1974 and later from The Brown Mackie College.

<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.

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 is survived by her mother Madeleine of Clyde, KS, and her husband William “Bill” Risetter of Junction City, KS, son Ray Turner and his wife Ana, son William “BJ” Risetter and wife Mitzi; daughter Renay Branfort and husband Shawn; daughter Tara Fields and husband Cody; daughter Tonja Kearns and husband Justin; grandchildren Hannah and Joseph Turner, Bethany Branfort, Lucas Branfort, William “Reed” Risetter, and Madison, Beau, Aubree and Jordyn Fields; brothers Larry (Judy) Blackwood, Gary (Paula) Blackwood, Dr. Terry (Tammy)Blackwood, Dr. D. Jay (Amy) Blackwood, Dr. Brad (Alisha) Blackwood, Lance (Cindi) Blackwood, sisters, De (Allen) Roth, Christine (Randy) Lawson, Debbie Blackwood, Karla Weatherhead (Gary Ramseyer), Jackie (Dr. Wayne) Brooks; brother-in-law Randy (Patrice) Risetter; and sister-in-law Julie Risetter; many aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, &nbsp;and extended family.&nbsp;

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

Visitation will be held from 1-5 p.m., Thursday, December 29, 2022 at the Chaput Mortuary, Clyde, Kansas, then moving to the church at 5 p.m.&nbsp; The rosary service will be held on Thursday evening at 7 p.m. at the St. John The Baptist Catholic Church, Clyde, Kansas.&nbsp; Family will receive friends after the rosary in the Church Hall.

A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 10:00 a.m., Friday, December 30, 2022 at St. John The Baptist Catholic Church, Clyde, Kansas with Fr. Steven Heina officiating.

Burial will follow in the Mt. Calvary Catholic Cemetery, Clyde, Kansas. Family and friends will gather back at the church where a luncheon will be served.

The family suggests memorials to St. John The Baptist Catholic Church, Guardians of St. Joseph Church Foundation or V.F.W. Post #7515, in care of Chaput Mortuary, P.O. Box 291, Clyde, KS 66938.&nbsp;

Hillsboro - Ruby Siebert, 88, passed away December 22, 2022 in Hillsboro.

Ruby Ens Siebert was born August 23, 1934 to Henry and Emma Friesen Ens on a farm south of Weatherford, Oklahoma. She was the third oldest of six daughters. 

Ruby started her schooling at a country school, Friesen School, which was named after her grandfather, J.M. Friesen. 

Ruby’s parents were members of the Corn Mennonite Brethren Church in Corn, Oklahoma. As a young girl she accepted Jesus as her savior and at age twelve was baptized in a farm pond near Corn.

In 1947 her family moved to Hillsboro. Ruby joined the Hillsboro Mennonite Brethren Church and finished eighth grade and high school. 

She had loved growing up on the farm and didn’t want to move. Little did she know, however, that she would be back on a farm in a few short years when she married Johnny Siebert. They married on September 23, 1952 and raised four children on their family farm: Charles Wayne, Jean Rene, Bruce Duane, and Lynn Susanne.

Ruby was gifted in many things, especially sewing, baking, and caring for others. She worked as a CNA at Parkside Homes for 15 years where she cared for the elderly. She sewed her own wedding dress and Jean’s and Lynn’s wedding dresses. She loved sewing beautiful wall hangings to display in her home. Her baking was enjoyed by her entire family, especially her zwiebach and cookies. The grandchildren always knew freshly baked cookies would be waiting for them when they came to visit. Ruby loved her grandchildren and great-grandchildren and treasured every visit from them.

When her lymphoma returned this fall she was given just a short time left on this earth. Ruby’s sense of humor and orneriness were a delight for her family to see these last few weeks, and they definitely made many new memories together as a family.

Ruby is survived by her children Charles and Mary Siebert, residing in Newton, Kansas, Jean and Richard Hernandez, residing in Gardner, Kansas, Bruce and Tereasa Siebert, residing in Hillsboro, Kansas, and Lynn and Wayne Bartel, residing in Dodge City, Kansas. She is survived by her 16 grandchildren, 32 great-grandchildren, and many nieces and nephews. Additionally, she is survived by her sisters Lois Becker of Dallas, Texas, Emma Walton of Belle Plaine, Kansas, and Roanna and Jim Neuenschwander of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

Ruby was preceded in death by her husband John (Johnny) G. Siebert, her parents Henry &amp; Emma Ens, her two sisters Wanda Lee Ens and Alvina Bruno, and her daughter-in-law, Twilla Jost Siebert.
