Lulu Irene (Forbenius) Swenson – Lulu “Lou” died September 7, 2022 at the Bethany Home at the age of 92. She was born near Linconville, Kansas on September 8, 1929, the fourth child of Karl and Katherine (Beisel) Forbenius. 

Lou was raised on the family homestead with her two older brothers, older sister and one younger sister. Growing up she was a member of the St. John's Lutheran Church. She attended Lincolnville Elementary School and graduated from Lincolnville High School. After graduation, Lou moved to McPherson, Kansas. 

She married Raynold Swenson on April 16, 1949, and was married for 56 years until Raynold’s passing in 2005. She and Raynold had two children, son Dale and daughter Debra, and five grandchildren, Damian, Danyel, Jessica, Katie and Kendal.

Lou worked in the medical field most of her adult life. Starting in 1959 through 1967, she worked for the Lindsborg Community Hospital. In 1967, she started working for Dr. Murfitt, where she remained for 17 years. In 1984, after a brief stint at the Bethany Home, she returned to the hospital where she worked in home health until her retirement. Lou enjoyed her work and cared for many people in the Lindsborg community. In her retirement, Lou helped run the TACOL thrift store for many years.

Lou was a child of God and served Him in many ways. She was a member of the Bethany Lutheran Church, where she taught Sunday and Bible School. She enjoyed teaching and working with the children of the church. 

Lou was a competitive person; it didn’t matter if it was cards, sports or Wii bowling, she played to win. She played on several softball teams as a pitcher, and competed in the women’s league at the Lindsborg Bowling Center. After “retiring” from participating in sports, Lou watched from the stands, as she traveled to various sporting events watching her grandchildren play football, basketball, volleyball, tennis, and track and field. She was a fan of baseball and often watched the Chicago Cubs on WGN. 

Lou enjoyed the outdoors, and would often take the grandkids fishing, where she was never afraid to bait a hook or take a fish off. She was also a lover of music, everything from George Jones, to the Lawrence Welk Show, to gospel, but she was partial to the music heard while attending all of her grandchildren’s choir and band concerts.

Lou was proceeded in death by her husband Raynold, parents Karl and Katherine, brothers Marion and E. Dean Forbenius, sisters Ruth Forbenius and Betty Beneke, and son-in-law Tony Patterson.

Lou is survived by son Dale (Julie) Swenson, daughter Debra Patterson, and grandchildren Damian Vosburg, Danyel Patterson, Jessica Patterson, Katie Swenson (Mike and Sydney), and Kendal Swenson (Amber).

The family would like to express our deepest gratitude to the wonderful people from Kindred Hospice and the Bethany Home for their compassion and loving care of Lou over the final days of her life. 

Visitation will be from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., Sunday, September 11, 2022 at Crick-Christians Funeral Home, 103 N. Washington, Lindsborg.

Private family graveside services will be held at Elmwood Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers the family requests that memorials be made to Kindred Hospice or the Bethany Home. Memorials may be sent in care of Crick-Christians Funeral Home, 103 N. Washington, Lindsborg, KS 67456.

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

Glennis Lee Schropp, 91, of McPherson, KS passed away at 6:05 a.m. on Tuesday, September 6th, surrounded by her son Monte, and daughter in-law Tami, at her residence as she had requested.

Glennis was born in Burlington, KS on August 22, 1931, the daughter of Inez Lee (Wentworth) and Selden Burk Laird.

Glennis attended Beechwood School in Sedgwick County and graduated from Hartford High School, Hartford, KS. 

Glennis loved her family. She proudly wore her "Schropp's Grandma" sweatshirt to her grandchildren and eventually her great-grandchildren's sporting events and activities.Glennis was a passionate fan of the Kansas City Chiefs. A diehard fan who loved them through both feast and famine, a love she shared with Don and Monte and eventually some of her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She was able to celebrate both Super Bowl wins of the team. 

She and Don went to many games over the years and took children and grandchildren along to enjoy. On game day the Chief's flag always flew high at 615 E. Kansas. 

Glennis spent countless hours preparing for and cleaning up after camping and fishing trips and hunting adventures. She would prepare whatever they brought to her kitchen to cook.

Glennis was feisty and had a quick wit, but was also a very tender and compassionate woman. She was a quiet woman, who had a listening ear and a hot cup of coffee for anyone who needed it. She never imposed her wishes on anyone, but would let you know what she thought if you asked. "I guess, I guess" "Oh boy, oh boy" and "Oh sh-" were some of her most familiar sayings. Through the years and countless documents, Glennis' middle name has raised questions and spawned stories having been spelled both "Lee" and "Lea". Glennis said the latter was incorrect even though that's what is on her birth certificate. 

One thing is true, no matter how it is spelled, she has a nephew, great-nephew, granddaughters, and great-granddaughters who proudly bear the name of this beloved woman.

Glennis took great pride in her appearance while she was in the workforce. She worked for Farmers Alliance Insurance for 30 years. She was always dressed to the nines with perfectly manicured nails and her hair done just right. Because of this, Glennis was admired by many. 

She loved her friends and co-workers and enjoyed bringing her grandchildren to the annual Easter egg hunt, and attending the retiree's dinner with her sister as her plus-one. She joked that this November she would have been retired for 30 years so she would get paid to not work for as many years as she had worked. 

After retirement Glennis worked briefly for the hospital auxiliary, a position she loved until family needs became more pressing.

She took care of many people through the years. Her sons when they had health challenges, with train trips to St. Louis and later weekly trips to Wichita. Don was diagnosed with leukemia and they dealt with that together as a couple. Some time after, upon her father's passing, Glennis and Don moved her mother in with them and cared for her until she returned to Arkansas in 1995. She took care of Don in their home until he passed in 2002, according to his wishes. He commented on their final anniversary together "You know we've been together for 50 years." She always made it a point to offer care to those who needed it.

Glennis L. Laird was united in marriage to Donald D. Schropp on February 10th, 1952, in Hartford, KS. The young couple established their first home together in Wichita, KS. This union was blessed with five children, one daughter and four sons, Ginger, Michael, Monte, Mark, and adopted son Ron Wege. 

The family moved to Peabody, then Newton, KS until 1962, when they settled in McPherson, KS.

She is survived by her son Monte Schropp and his wife Tami of McPherson, KS; adopted daughter-in-law Claudette Wege of Coleridge, NE; and sister Loretta Costner of McPherson, KS. She is also survived by 16 grandchildren and 22 great-grandchildren: Kim (Marc) Wurzinger, Colin, Kerry, Katie, of Channahon, IL; Mike (Missy) Mead, Ava, Ella, of Olathe, KS; Jason (Kim) Schropp, Kaitlyn (Tray) Asbil, Hailee Schropp, of Bell Aire, KS; Jennifer (Justin Dietzel) Schropp, Alex Kalkorst, Tyler and Autumn LaSalle, of McPherson, KS; Jody Schropp, Rilynn, Keigan and Kynlee Newhouse, of McPherson, KS; Jacob (Tara) Schropp, Owen, Brynley, Monster McCall, of Broken Arrow, OK; Jessica Schropp (Clay Roby), Jonah Schropp, of McPherson, KS; Chris (Makayla) Schropp, of McPherson, KS; Chad Schropp, Drake, of McPherson, KS; Casey Schropp, Gentry, Barlow Dishman, of Moundridge, KS; other relatives and many friends.

Glennis was preceded in death by her parents, her husband Don, her daughter Ginger Mead and sons Michael, infant son Mark, and sister Gladys (Newkirk) McCalister, and their beloved dogs Hebrie and Wally.

Visitation will be held on Tuesday, September 13, 2022 from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. at Glidden - Ediger-Wiggins Chapel in McPherson, KS. Service will be held on Wednesday, September 14, 2022 at 11:00 a.m. at Trinity Lutheran Church in McPherson, KS with Rev. Tim Leaf officiating.

<a href="https://www.wigginsfuneralhomes.com/obituaries/David-Stevens-19/#!/TributeWall">David Allen Stevens Obituary - Visitation &amp; Funeral Information (wigginsfuneralhomes.com)</a>

On September 4, 2022, David Allen Stevens, fondly known as “Pastor Dave,” of Sedgwick, Kansas was called to his heavenly home. Born on December 6, 1957 in Camden, New Jersey, David has always had an adventurous soul and heart of a scholar. 

After earning his undergraduate degree at Rutgers University, David pursued his love of Jesus and service to the community through obtaining his master's of divinity at Eastern Baptist Seminary, before spending time studying biblical interpretation at Iliff School of Theology.

Pastor Dave continued his devotion to God through ministry in various churches in Colorado, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and finally, Kansas. 

In his ministry, Pastor Dave strived to be a source of comfort, peace, and compassion for his congregation. His work was never done, waking up early to study the scripture, making late night phone calls or hospital visits to reassure those during their challenging days, or working diligently to find the best scripture verse to read at a wedding he officiated. Pastor Dave made certain that he was present with his congregation through their tragedies and their joys; a true shepherd. Pastor Dave’s service reached beyond his own church, having served as a mentor to Chaguanas Mennonite Church and as a teacher to aspiring pastors at the West Indies Theological College in Trinidad and Tobago.

David’s love of God and his congregation was echoed by the love for his family. David married the love of his life, Carole, on June 9, 1984. David and Carole would go on to have two children, Laura and Katie. 

David shared many adventures with his family, including canoeing trips down the Susquehanna river, visiting Andre the Seal in Maine, skating the frozen Rideau Canal, and reading every museum sign, much to his kid’s chagrin.

In recent years, David graduated to being “Opa” with the birth of his three cherished grandsons, Connor, Collin, and Caysen. David adored being their grandfather… racing the car as they drove down the driveway, saving snakes and frogs he found to show the boys, and taking them hiking, much like he did with his own girls.

David was greeted at heaven’s gates by his mother Ruth, and father Norman, as well as his in-laws Warren and Ella, whom he treasured as much as his own.

David’s memory and legacy will be carried on through his wife Carole, daughters Laura (Daniel), Katie (Josh), grandsons Connor, Collin, and Caysen, cousins Lynne, Judy, and Gale, and sisters-in-law Janice (Jerry) and Linda, along with various nieces and nephews (and great-niece and nephews), and the many people he touched through his spiritual leadership and friendship.

In lieu of flowers, memorial gifts can be contributed to Hope Mennonite Church, Family Promise of Greater Wichita, or Working Men of Christ Ministry.

Sitting on David’s home desk the morning of his passing was a verse he was studying in Hebrew. It reads in part, “I said, ‘Oh, that I had the wings of a dove! I would fly away and be at rest’…As for me, I call to God, and the Lord saves me.”

Services will be held on Saturday, September 10, 2022 at 2:30 p.m. at Hope Mennonite Church, 868 N Maize Rd, Wichita, Kansas. To join the service virtually, visit&nbsp;<a href="http://www.hopemennonite.org/" target="_blank">www.hopemennonite.org</a>&nbsp;for the zoom link.
