Janet Ruth (Werner) Malpert, 84, of Lindsborg passed away peacefully, Tuesday, September 13th at Salina Regional Health Center. &nbsp;&nbsp;

Janet was born on a farm southeast of Deshler, NE on April 2, 1938 to Albert and Esther (Kahle) Werner. She was baptized at Peace Lutheran Church in Deshler, NE, on April 17th, 1938 by the Rev. Fred Schwerin.

She attended District 86 and Peace Lutheran Parochial School. On June 3, 1951, she was confirmed in the Lutheran faith at Peace Lutheran Church by the Reverend R.H. Riensche. 

Janet attended Deshler High School, graduating in 1955 as valedictorian. She attended Wartburg College in Waverly, IA receiving her teaching certificate in 1957. She also attended the University of Nebraska, Lincoln.

Janet taught kindergarten, band, and choir at Ruskin (NE) Public School. While there, she was instrumental in getting the school’s first band uniforms.

On February 14, 1959, Janet married Darrell Malpert at Peace Lutheran Church by Pastor Erwin Janssen. To this union, three daughters were born, Dawn, Avona and Meredith. 

The couple made their first home in Hebron, Nebraska where Darrell was a pharmacist at Christensen Drug. They later moved to Clarinda, Iowa for eight years. In 1969, she and Darrell purchased Higdon Drug Store in Goodland, Kansas. Janet worked as part of Malpert Drug Company for the next 28 years until Darrell’s retirement in 1997 when the pharmacy closed and the business became Jan’s Hallmark. 

Throughout their years in Goodland, the family enjoyed many weekends at the lake, boating and picnicking with family and friends. After her retirement in 2001, the couple moved to Lindsborg, Kansas. During retirement, the couple enjoyed travelling, especially spending winter months in Green Valley, AZ.

Janet was very active in church work including teaching Sunday School, Bible School, Bible study groups and serving many offices for the Tri-State Conference in the ALCW. She attended many ALC/ELCA national conventions as a delegate and served on the Central District Church Council.

She enjoyed history and genealogy. Janet researched and complied family histories and was instrumental in family reunions. Janet was also interested in Native American History and worked at the Navaho Lutheran Mission in Arizona. She presented many programs telling the Navaho story.

Janet was preceded in death by her parents Albert and Esther Werner, her father and mother in-law John and Carrie Malpert, stepfather Marvin Malpert, &nbsp;sisters-in-laws Jane Malpert and Jan Werner, and brother-in-law Kenneth Malpert

Our beloved, Geraldine Marie Morse, passed away in Dallas, Texas, at the age of 83 in the presence of loving family members.

She was an adoring wife of 49 years to her loving husband, Paul Everett Morse, until his passing in 2008.

Jerri was an incredible mother to her three surviving children, Michael Paul Morse, age 59, Michelle Patrice Morse, age 57, and her wife Evamarie Smith, and Douglas Paul Morse, age 56.&nbsp;

She will be dearly missed by so many friends who knew her, loved her, and made sure to stay in touch no matter the time passed or distance in between.

&nbsp;Jerri had a full life and was a long-time resident of Salina, Kansas, who attended Salina Central High School and spent her later years in the same home where she was raised as a child. It was a home where all were welcome and where many happy memories were made and shared.
