Jarold ("Jerry") William Boettcher of Manhattan, age 82, formerly of Beloit, died surrounded by family on Sunday, August 21, 2022 at Stormont Vail Hospital in Topeka, Kansas.

Survivors include his wife of 60 years, Barbara; children Chris Boettcher (Lynne) of Benton, Melinda Grafel (Dan) of Oberlin, Andy Boettcher (Wendy) of Dayton, Ohio, and Miranda Grummon (David) of Shawnee; grandchildren Kade, Brittan, Isabel, Aidan, Drew, Dylan, Ella, Josh, Addyson, and Isaiah; and sisters Janet Wesselowski of Wichita and Kathy Aros (Richard) of Tucson, Arizona.

He was preceded in death by his parents Harold and Zelma Boettcher, and one sister, Sylvia Wolf of Quinter. Jerry was born on May 19, 1940 in Beloit. After graduating from Beloit High School in 1958, he continued his education at Kansas State University.

He married the love of his life, Barbara, on December 30, 1961, and graduated with a degree in nuclear engineering in 1963. He began considering graduate school, and was admitted to MIT's Sloan School of Management where he earned a master's degree in industrial management in 1966. He worked in finance in New York City, then in Kansas City, Missouri. In 1979, he switched gears and moved his family to Beloit to help his father with the management of Boettcher Supply. He worked as president and CEO of Boettcher Enterprises until his retirement in 2007. He and Barbara then moved to Manhattan.

Jerry loved many things - education, his K-State Wildcats, dogs, working on and racing cars, and traveling, but what he loved most was his family. He was a wonderful husband, father, and grandfather, and will be missed terribly.

In memory of Jerry, contributions may be made to a few institutions that were close to Jerry's heart: Purple Paws 2nd Chance Rescue in Manhattan, First Presbyterian Church of Beloit, or towards a Beloit High School scholarship for graduates attending Kansas State University. 

The family will host a Celebration of Life service on Saturday, October 15 at 11 a.m., at First Presbyterian Church, 321 E.

&nbsp;January 20th, 1945 - September 3rd, 2022

Mary Kay (Buchanan) Graves, 77, passed away peacefully at her home in Chapman on Saturday, September 3. She was born on January 20, 1945, in Olustee, OK, to Paul and Mayme Ruth (Norris) Buchanan. 

As a child living across the Red River Valley in Oklahoma, Texas, and Arkansas, Kay developed a love of nature, gardening, painting, horseback riding, and spending time with family, especially her maternal grandmother, “Mamaw.”

Upon graduation from Duke High School (OK) in 1963, Kay attended Altus Junior College and Southwest Oklahoma State University, graduating in 1967 with a bachelor’s degree in elementary education. 

She taught for several years in the Lakin (KS) school district, where she met the love of her life, Herbert Russell Graves, Jr. They married on July 20, 1968, in Eldorado, OK. Together, they lovingly raised two children, Russell Wayne (Tammy) of Kansas City, MO, and Cynthia Dlynn Markley (Chad) of Abilene.

Kay served for 30 years as a 4-H superintendent at the Central Kansas Free Fair, 20 years as a board member of the Chapman Housing Authority, and 10 years as the leader of the Chapman Shamrocks 4-H Club. She was also a lifelong member of the Chapman VFW Ladies Auxiliary. She also operated an arts and crafts store in Frankfort (KS) and Mayme’s Cottage in Abilene with her daughter.

Kay was preceded in death by her parents, her two brothers, Herbert and Eddie Wayne Buchanan, her brothers-in-law Thomas and David Graves, and sisters-in-law Carol Kirkbride, Barbara Steppe, Myra Buchanan, and Lavonda Hurlbut.

Everyone that met Kay instantly recognized her dedication and love for her family, feisty personality, sharp wit, and determination to always put forth her best effort in every pursuit. Her family loves their wife, mom, and Aunt Kay very much and she will be dearly missed.

<a href="https://www.ryanmortuary.com/obituary/Harold-Morrison">Obituary for Harold Morrison | Ryan Mortuary</a>

July 3, 1933 ~ September 2, 2022 (age 89)

Harold Morrison, 89, Salina, passed away at his home Friday, Sept. 2, 2022, after a 10-year battle with Parkinson’s disease. Harold was born July 3, 1933, in Salina to George R. Morrison and Rachel E. (Bell) Morrison. 

Harold was raised on the family farm on north Ohio Street and attended school through eighth grade at Stimmel School (District # 27). He graduated from Salina High School (Washington Building) in 1951.

After enlisting in 1953 he served two years in the U.S. Army. Harold returned to Salina and enrolled at Kansas Wesleyan University and was a member of the 1956 and 1957 championship football teams.

While attending KWU, he worked part-time loading trucks for McCune Paper Co. Upon graduation from KWU in 1959, he continued working for McCune Paper Co until his retirement as general manager in 1986.

He and Ernestine Ball of Salina (SHS ’54) were married in 1956 and in 1961 they built a home on the family farm where Harold joined his father and brother Don operating the 100-year-old wheat farm.&nbsp;

 They raised two daughters, Kimberly and Teri Ann, and after much begging from Kim, the family bought their first pony in 1964 and their first Quarter Horse in 1969.&nbsp; This led to bigger and better horses, riding lessons, saddles, trucks, trailers and traveling all over the country attending small and large Quarter Horse shows for the next 35 years.

Harold served as youth director for the Kansas Quarter Horse Association for 10 years and was president of the KQHA in 1994-1995. He was voted into the Kansas Quarter Horse Association Hall of Fame in 2005.

Harold was also a multi-gallon O negative blood donor to the American Red Cross.&nbsp; From its early beginning in the 1960s, Harold and Ernestine were avid supporters of the Salina Community Theatre.&nbsp; He and his pick up truck were always available to help with any and all back tage jobs.

He is survived by his wife of 66 years, Ernestine, daughters Kim (Fred) Norwood, New Cambria; Teri (Michael) Johnson, Temple, TX and grandson Brandon (Mandy) Norwood, Salina. 

He was preceded in death by two brothers, Don and Leslie.

A casual gathering for memories and stories will be at Ryan Mortuary at 2 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 9. Interment will be at Roselawn Memorial Park. The celebration will continue at 4 p.m. at Blue Skye Brewery in downtown Salina. &nbsp;

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to the Salina Animal Services or the Kansas Quarter Horse Association Youth Scholarship Fund.

<a href="https://www.ryanmortuary.com/obituary/Deanna-Dawson">Obituary for Deanna Ruth (Beichley) Dawson | Ryan Mortuary</a>

May 23, 1966 ~ September 3, 2022 (age 56)

Deanna Ruth Dawson, 56, of Salina, passed away Saturday, September 3, 2022, peacefully with her family by her side at Salina Regional Health Center. She was born in Salina on May 23, 1966, the daughter of Ruth and Wesley Beichley, and was a lifelong resident.

Deanna graduated from Salina South High School in 1984 and was the owner of the Continental Hair Salon. She graduated from Salina Hair Academy in 1985 and has worked in the industry for over 35 years. She was loved and adored by many clients who always left the shop happy. 

Deanna had such a big and incredible smile that would light up a room, and a laugh that you could hear from miles away. She was baptized at St. John’s Lutheran Church and remained a faithful servant throughout her life. 

Deanna was a diehard KC Chiefs fan and loved tailgating and attending games at Arrowhead with friends and family. One thing we loved was her crazy superstition of wearing the same outfit with her Chiefs koozie and blanket every game day. 

She adored her twin son and daughter Jaden and Jacelyn, and loved attending all of their school and athletic events. No matter if the events fell on the same time or day, she would do anything to make it work. 

Some of her favorite hobbies were playing cards (especially pitch), dancing, working out, relaxing in the pool, binge watching reality TV, and enjoying girls’ night. 

Deanna shared Jesus’s love and compassion with the act of hospitality, during Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners.

Deanna and Josh were married on September 19, 1992 at St. John’s Lutheran Church, and were married for 29 years. 

Deanna was preceded in death by her parents Ruth and Wesley Beichley. 

Deanna is survived by her husband Josh Dawson, her twin children Jaden and Jacelyn Dawson, her three brothers Dave, Dan, and Doug Beichley, and many nieces and nephews.

Funeral services will be at 10:00 a.m. Friday, September 9, 2022 at St. John’s Lutheran Church, Salina. Visitation will be from 4 until 8 p.m. Thursday evening at the Ryan Mortuary where the family will receive friends from 5 until 7 p.m. that evening.

Memorials are suggested to St. John’s Church.

Norman D. Hoard, 87, of Courtland, Kansas was born August 21, 1935 to Charles and J. Marie (Mears) Hoard in Harveyville, KS. Norman peacefully passed from his earthly existence in his home, Friday, September 2, 2022.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Christmas of the same year, his family moved to a farm near Randall/Jewell, Kansas.&nbsp; Norman attended Randall Elementary schools until 7th&nbsp;grade, he then attended Formoso schools until his graduation in 1953.&nbsp; 

On May 15,1954 he married Doris J. Dunstan and to this union were born three boys, Kevan, Kris, and Scott.&nbsp;

In August of 1954, Norman and Doris purchased the Standard Oil filling station on the West edge of Courtland. Through the years, Norman, Doris, and their sons worked together to make the business a success.&nbsp; Although he sold the business to his youngest son, Scott in 1999, he never really retired. You could find him there every day drinking coffee, reading newspapers to keep up on the latest sport statistics, sweeping, and greeting his longtime customers until his passing.

Norman found time to do some custom harvesting in his early years of farming. He enjoyed caring for feeder calves and maintaining his farm West of Courtland. No matter the season he would always find something to do at the farm, it was his peaceful place. He enjoyed coon hunting and bird hunting with his sons and took great pride in training his beloved coon hounds which he won several competitions with. He enjoyed getting kids involved in outdoor sports and served as a hunters education instructor for seven years.

Norman played a huge role in the lives of many children throughout his life.&nbsp; From coaching baseball for almost 20 years, carrying candy on the delivery truck, or handing out suckers at the station, children were the joy of his life.&nbsp; He lit up when they walked in the door and always took the time to make each one feel special and to help them, however he could.

&nbsp;He was a member of the Courtland Covenant Church, served on the Courtland Community Pride Club, the Caldwell Cemetery Board, and the Courtland Rural Water District # 1 Board member. He was a driving force behind the Formoso Alumni W. J. Baird Scholarship at Cloud County Community College.

Proceeding him in death are his wife Doris (Dunstan) Hoard, parents Charles and Josie Marie Hoard, brothers Richard, Milton, and Dale.&nbsp;

He is survived by his three sons, Kevan (Lori) Hoard of Minneapolis, KS, Kris (Juli) Hoard of Concordia, KS, Scott (Brenda) Hoard of Webber, KS;&nbsp; five grandchildren, Bryan of Wichita, Melanie of Salina, Emily of Concordia, Madeline of Hays, and Noah of Webber;&nbsp; seven&nbsp;stepgrandchildren and nine great-grandchildren.&nbsp;

Funeral services will be held at 10:00 a.m. Friday, September 9, 2022 from the Courtland Covenant Church in Courtland, KS officiated by Pastor Kathy Aeillo.&nbsp; Interment will be held at the Caldwell Cemetery.
