Lorraine L. Albers&nbsp;of Salina was born on March 5, 1938 in Holdrege Nebraska. Passed away on November 13, 2022 at the age of 84, with family by her side.

She was proceeded in death by her parents Arnold and Antonia Winberg; her son Robert L (Bobby) Albers, Jr.; great-grandson Gavin Brummett; and sister Violet Wiser.

Lorraine was always keeping busy in business, she as a partner in Bob Albers Construction and retiring in 1991.

Her many partnerships include The Red Pussy Cat Club, Truck Haven Truck Stop, Eddies Club and Lucky Bingo Parlor and many rentals that she and her son Bobby&nbsp; helped with.

We will miss her spunk and spice, (Little Mighty Mouse). Knowing she is at peace now she will be so greatly missed.

<a href="https://www.jostfuneralhome.com/obituaries/Hildegard-Thiessen?obId=26357425#/obituaryInfo">Hildegard Thiessen Obituary - Visitation &amp; Funeral Information (jostfuneralhome.com)</a>

Our mother, Hildegard Agnes Krieger Thiessen, lived a long and full life. She passed from this life on November 12, 2022 just one day shy of her 94th birthday. On Saturday she took her last earthly breath and on Sunday she celebrated her birthday in her heavenly home with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!

Hildegard was born to Leonard and Agatha Krieger on November 13, 1928. They lived on a farm outside of Cordell, OK, enduring the very difficult days of the Dust bowl. Hildegard was the eldest of four children which included her brothers Edgar and Norbert, and her sister Nelda. 

Education was important to Hildegard and her parents. After completing grade school at the MK &amp; T Grade School, she was able to continue her high school education at Corn Bible Academy in Corn, OK. Because this was a twenty-mile drive from her home, Hildegard was able to board with several different families in town during her high school years. At home on the weekends and during her summer breaks, Hildegard was able to do the mowing at the local cemetery which she enjoyed. This job enabled her earn enough money to buy fabric which she sewed into the clothing she needed for school.

After graduating from Corn Bible Academy in 1947, Hildegard was given the opportunity to continue her education at Tabor College. This was a privilege that not many of her peers were offered or even desired, but she relished. She graduated from Tabor College in 1951. Her education allowed her opportunities to work in different business ventures throughout her adult life.

In January of 1951,while working in the Tabor bookstore, Hildegard met a young man who came to buy a textbook which he couldn’t afford. Although Wilmer Thiessen didn’t get that book, he got something much more precious - a lifelong relationship with his future wife. 

After Tabor, their relationship continued across the miles via correspondence from Hillsboro to Denver, CO where Wilmer was working. In January of 1954 he traveled to Hillsboro and surprised Hildegard with his unexpected visit and a proposal, which she accepted. They were married at the Bessie Mennonite Brethren Church outside of Cordell, OK on June 6, 1954.

Their life together took them from Hillsboro, to Denver, to Henderson, NE and back to Denver. Together they formed many long-term friendships through church and work. They lived a happy life in Denver and Littleton, Colorado for the next 20 years. During this time they added to their family. Charlene was born in 1955 (during their time living in Henderson, NE), Lynette joined the family in 1958, Shaun in 1961 and Vonda in 1965.

After 20 years in the Denver and Littleton area, Wilmer was offered a job at the Mennonite Brethren Missions Office in Hillsboro, Kansas. They moved the family in June 1974. During the next 40-some years, Hildegard was again able to work Tabor College in the business Office, and just before she retired she ran The Bookstore on Main Street which brought her much fulfillment.

She passed from this life on November 12, 2022 just one day shy of her 94th birthday. On Saturday she took her last earthly breath and on Sunday she celebrated her birthday in her heavenly home with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!Hildegard was born to Leonard and Agatha Krieger on November 13, 1928. They lived on a farm outside of Cordell, OK, enduring the very difficult days of the Dust bowl. Hildegard was the eldest of four children which included her brothers Edgar and Norbert, and her sister Nelda. Education was important to Hildegard and her parents. After completing grade school at the MK &amp; T Grade School, she was able to continue her high school education at Corn Bible Academy in Corn, OK. Because this was a twenty-mile drive from her home, Hildegard was able to board with several different families in town during her high school years. At home on the weekends and during her summer breaks, Hildegard was able to do the mowing at the local cemetery which she enjoyed. This job enabled her earn enough money to buy fabric which she sewed into the clothing she needed for school.After graduating from Corn Bible Academy in 1947, Hildegard was given the opportunity to continue her education at Tabor College. This was a privilege that not many of her peers were offered or even desired, but she relished. She graduated from Tabor College in 1951. Her education allowed her opportunities to work in different business ventures throughout her adult life.In January of 1951,while working in the Tabor bookstore, Hildegard met a young man who came to buy a textbook which he couldn’t afford. Although Wilmer Thiessen didn’t get that book, he got something much more precious - a lifelong relationship with his future wife. After Tabor, their relationship continued across the miles via correspondence from Hillsboro to Denver, CO where Wilmer was working. In January of 1954 he traveled to Hillsboro and surprised Hildegard with his unexpected visit and a proposal, which she accepted. They were married at the Bessie Mennonite Brethren Church outside of Cordell, OK on June 6, 1954.Their life together took them from Hillsboro, to Denver, to Henderson, NE and back to Denver. Together they formed many long-term friendships through church and work. They lived a happy life in Denver and Littleton, Colorado for the next 20 years. During this time they added to their family. Charlene was born in 1955 (during their time living in Henderson, NE), Lynette joined the family in 1958, Shaun in 1961 and Vonda in 1965.After 20 years in the Denver and Littleton area, Wilmer was offered a job at the Mennonite Brethren Missions Office in Hillsboro, Kansas.

<a href="https://www.ryanmortuary.com/obituary/Janet-Dyck">Obituary for Janet L. (Graham) Dyck | Ryan Mortuary</a>

March 5, 1933 ~ November 5, 2022 (age 89)

Janet L. Dyck&nbsp;of Salina, passed away Saturday, November 5, 2022 at her home, surrounded by her family. Janet was born on March 5, 1933 to Floyd and Ruth (Lakie) Graham in Bismarck, North Dakota.

Though our cherished Mom, Grandma and Great-grandma has gone to be with Jesus and her husband, she remains with us in our hearts.

When Mom was young, her father had a five and dime in Lindsborg, KS, where she worked for him. They sold lots of candy, which is where we believe she acquired her sweet tooth!

Mom and Dad were high school sweethearts at Lindsborg High School. They met on the football field. He was a football player; she was a cheerleader. They were married March 6, 1952 while Dad was on leave from the Marines, at Trinity United Methodist Church in Lindsborg Kansas. Their wedding was delayed a day due to a blizzard!

Mom’s greatest wish was to start a family. They adopted Jay in 1962 and Jill in 1964. Her family was her whole life. She stayed at home to raise her children until they were full-time in school. She then worked at Brown's Shoe Fit, a job she very much enjoyed! She also was on a bowling league and played every Wednesday for many years.

She volunteered for literally everything! Anything for her children - room mother, field trips, bake cookies, whatever! She delivered Meals on Wheel for many years. She was active in anything involving her children, her church and her family. She was always there for us.

When her first grandchild, Garrett, was born in 1988, she quit her job at Brown's Shoe Fit and officially became “Grandma.” Later, she added Rachael, Hunter, Rebecca and Breck to her grandchild collection. Her life was full of family, holidays, family vacations and all our activities.

Later she added great-grandchildren to her collection, Amelia, Jaxson, Abe, and Josie. Her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren were her greatest treasure.

While taking a rare break from her family, Janet loved to travel. She talked for years of her trip to visit family in Scotland with her sister-in-law Sonja Auldridge. They also enjoyed a fabulous cruise to Alaska. Janet and Sonja were great friends throughout her life. Mom was an only child, and Sonja was like a sister to her.

Janet was preceded in death by her parents and husband, Jerry Dyck.

Survivors include her son Jay Dyck of Dallas, daughter Jill Dyck of Salina, grandson Garrett (Kendra) Dyck and great-granddaughter Amelia, granddaughter Rachael (Michael) Walker of Bennington and great-grandchildren Jaxson and Josie, grandson Hunter Dyck of Dallas, granddaughter Rebecca Hough of Salina, grandson Breck Jordan and great-grandson Abraham Jordan of Dallas.
