<a href="https://www.wigginsfuneralhomes.com/obituaries/Edward-Dalke/#!/TributeWall">Edward A. Dalke Obituary - Visitation &amp; Funeral Information (wigginsfuneralhomes.com)</a>

Edward Dalke, 84, of Hesston, passed away on Saturday, November 26, 2022, at Pine Village in Moundridge, Kansas. He was born September 20, 1938, in Fort Cobb, Oklahoma, the youngest of seven children born to Henry and Carrie (Base) Dalke. 

He spent his first years of life growing up on the Base homeplace in Fort Cobb. Edward prayed to receive Christ as his savior at the age of twelve after hearing an evangelist share the Gospel at his home church, Green Field Mennonite, which was just a few miles away from the Base homeplace. As soon as he was big enough to pull a sack behind him, Edward joined in the family’s work of picking cotton. From a young age, it was his dream to be able to have and run a farm of his own. After his brother Herman and wife Selma moved to Halstead, they helped find work for Edward on nearby farms during the summer. His parents, Henry and Carrie, also made the move to Halstead, Kansas where Edward finished high school. In the summer of 1957, Earl and Darlene Bartel hired Edward as a farmhand, and a certain Joyce Voran as help inside the house with cooking, cleaning, and watching the children. Edward and Joyce were soon smitten with each other, got engaged at Christmas and were married that next summer on June 20, 1958. They had three children together, Ileen, Allen, and Janell. Edward learned how to weld in high school and went to mechanics school in Denver after high school. These things served him well when he went to work for Hesston Corporation.

Soon after Janell was born, Edward got to realize his dream of having his own farm. The family moved to a farm just down the road from Joyce’s homeplace, and Edward farmed that land for over 50 years. He continued at Hesston Corporation while he began a dairy. He operated a dairy for more than 20 years and then drove truck for Sunglo Feeds for nearly 20 years. 

He served at Garden Church all of his adult life in various capacities including the roles of deacon and elder. Church and ministry were very important in Edward’s life. He loved his family, loved God and desired that all of his friends and family have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Survivors include his daughters Ileen Miller of Oceanside, California and Janell (Ray) Zuercher of Olathe, Kansas; Five grandchildren: Clarissa Dalke, Tyler Dalke, Rachelle Clair, Jared Zuercher, and Katelynn Zuercher; ten great-grandchildren; brother, Norman Dalke of Yukon, Oklahoma; sisters, Ruthie Nightengale of Carnegie, Oklahoma and Edith Unruh of Halstead, Kansas; and numerous nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends. Edward was preceded in death by his parents; wife Joyce; son Allen; brothers Herman and Irwin; sister Ruby Unruh; brothers-in-law Alvin Unruh, Leo Nightengale, and Bennie Unruh; sisters-in-law Selma, Norabell, and Micky. Funeral services will be held at 9:30 a.m., Saturday, December 3, 2022 at Garden Community Church, rural Moundridge. The service will be livestreamed at&nbsp;<a href="http://www.facebook.com/gardencommunitychurch" target="_blank">www.facebook.com/gardencommunitychurch</a>. Burial will follow in the church cemetery. Friends may call from 3 to 7 p.m., Friday, December 2, at Miller-Ott Funeral Home, Hesston, with family present from 5 to 7 p.m.

Memorial contributions may be made out to Avant Ministries (memo line in memory of Edward Dalke) in care of Miller-Ott Funeral Home, P.O. Box 32, Hesston, KS 67062.

&nbsp;October 2nd, 1938 - November 26th, 2022

John Wesley Willey III, Topeka, KS, left this world to join his beloved wife on Saturday, November 26, 2022, at the age of 84. He was born October 2nd, 1938 in Solomon, KS, the only child to John Wesley Willey, Jr. and Henrietta M Wolfe. 

A graduate of Solomon High School, he was united in marriage to the love of his life, Arlene P Haymond of Salina, KS on June 5, 1960. They lived in Solomon for 31 years and together welcomed three children: a son, John IV, and twin daughters, Linda and Brenda.

In 1990, John and Arlene moved to Abilene, KS. Sadly, Arlene passed away on Dec 2, 2002 and John moved to Topeka, KS shortly after this, where he resided with Mary Wright. John began his lifelong career as a civil engineer with Wilson and Company Engineering and Architects, Salina, KS, at the age of 18. Notably, his first engineering assignment was the design and construction of I-70 at Abilene. Over the next four decades, he was involved in major infrastructure improvements in the mid- and southwest region of the U.S. and for the City of Abilene. In 1989 he was hired as Abilene’s City Engineer. He spent the next 12 years there before retiring in 2001. His most significant contribution was the construction of the first reverse osmosis municipal water treatment plant in the state of Kansas.

He was a Freemason and served as secretary of Solomon City Lodge for 25 years and was a former officer of the Grand Lodge of Kansas. Attending the annual Solomon lodge picnic each June with his family was one event he perpetually looked forward to. He was a man of few words with a quiet, witty sense of humor. Incredibly wise and intelligent, he was the kind of person that when he spoke, everyone listened. Although he was quite stubborn and independent himself, he would drop everything to do anything for his loved ones. An avid NASCAR fan, John often enjoyed a nap with the race playing in the background. His love for his various dogs and cats throughout his life was apparent, and anyone who knew him will always picture him in his wardrobe staples—cowboy boots and sweaters year-round. John and Arlene were their grandchildren’s greatest fans, cheering at every sporting or musical event they were able to attend and taking them on countless day-trip vacations including tours of Big Brutus, old steam engines, airplanes, and fishing. He was known as the grandpa who believed in donuts and Oreo cookies for breakfast and he always had some kind of candy or cookie to bring each time he visited. John was preceded in death by his wife, Arlene.

He leaves behind his son John (Jason) Willey IV, Topeka, KS; Linda (Joe) Duntz, Manhattan, KS; Brenda (Mike)Yamamoto, Colorado Springs, CO; five grandchildren: Dustin, Ashley, TJ, James, and Andrew; and six great-grandchildren. Graveside services will be held at Prairie Mound Cemetery, Solomon, on Thursday, Dec. 1, 2022, at 1:00 p.m.

Memorials may be made to the Masonic Lodge. Memorials may be mailed to Carlson-Becker Funeral Home, P.O. Box 308, Solomon, Kansas 67480.
