Eirving Eugene Rains, 80, of McPherson, Kansas, passed away unexpectedly of natural causes at 2:29 p.m., Saturday, May 21st, 2022 at his home. Eirv was born in Wallace, Kansas at his grandparents Locks' home, on July 22, 1941, a son to Mary Ruth (Lock) and Eldon Morris Rains. Eirv started grade school at Winona grade school, Winona, Kansas and finished grade school at Wallace, Kansas and graduated Wallace County Community High School, in Sharon Springs, Kansas in 1959. He honorably served in the U.S. Army as a SP4. He was stationed in Germany and with his mechanical abilities, he was put in charge of the motor pool. Eirving Eugene Rains was united in marriage to Navene Neva Grund on June 27, 1965 at the Baptist Church in Sharon Springs. The young couple established their first home together in Wallace. This union was blessed with the birth of three children, two sons and one daughter, Keith, Kent, and Kerry. In the fall of 1971 the family moved to Sharon Springs, until 1999 when they moved to McPherson, Kansas. Eirv grew up around his Uncle George Lock's gas station and mechanic shop where he learned mechanic skills and later became a mechanic for the Ford garage in Sharon Springs. After returning from the Army, Eirv went to work at the Cowles Motor Service in Sharon Springs for a couple years. He then decided to go to work for Navene's Uncle John Mather's auto parts store and gas station. After a couple years, John sold the business to Eirv and Navene in 1968. They owned and operated the business, employing many family members until 1999 when he retired and sold the business to a nephew, Chance Rains. During this time Eirv also served as mayor for 16 years, an EMT for 20 years, as the Wesleyan Church treasurer and worked on building projects, was a member of the Chamber of Commerce serving in many capacities, and served on the Board of Education, all of Sharon Springs. Eirv attended the First United Methodist Church in McPherson. Eirv enjoyed his family especially his grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and cats. He was a perfectionist and could fix anything and loved things clean. He enjoyed playing cards, board games, golf, and loved watching the Kansas City Chiefs and Kansas Jayhawks basketball. He enjoyed rides in the country and telling the history of Wallace County with his family. His grandkids loved when Grandad would get the golf cart out and he would give them all rides and teach them to drive. He is survived by his loving and caring wife of over 56 years, Navene Rains of McPherson; his children Keith Rains, and wife Teresa of Little River, Kent Rains and wife Suzanne of Lenexa, and Kerry Schrock and husband Sam of Kearney, Nebraska; his siblings Richard Rains of Wallace, Becky Vincent and husband Tony of Sharon Springs, George Rains and wife Debbie of Wallace, and Gerald Rains and his wife Shirley of Sharon Springs; his sister-in-law Maxine Atkinson and her husband Gene of Garden City, Kansas; his seven grandchildren, Marci Boltz and husband Luke, Bronson Rains, Abigail Rains, Ethan Rains, Piper Schrock, Kade Schrock, Kit Schrock; his five great-grandchildren, Laetyn Boltz, Raif Boltz, Steelie Boltz, Ramsey Boltz, and Bret Boltz; many nephews, nieces, other relatives, and a host of friends. Eirving was preceded in death by his parents; his brother Allen; sister-in-law Pat Rains; nephew Greg Rains and his wife Mel. A memorial service will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Thursday, May 26th, 2022 at First United Methodist Church in McPherson, Kansas with Deacon Jeanne Koontz officiating.

Phyllis Loie (Woellhof) Hartner, Longmont, Colorado

<a href="https://www.nsrfh.com/obituary/phyllis-hartner">Obituary | Phyllis Hartner | Neill-Schwensen-Rook Funeral Home (nsrfh.com)</a>

Phyllis Loie (Woellhof) Hartner&nbsp;(Feb. 3, 1929 – May 18, 2022) died peacefully in her sleep in the early morning.&nbsp; Phyllis was born at home in Oak Hill, Kansas to Ezra and Grace (Ford) Woellhof, the middle and only girl of five children.&nbsp; She grew up on her family farm and graduated from Clay County Community High School in 1947.

Following the end of WWII, she caught the eye of a handsome local returning GI, and they soon became a couple.&nbsp; On Oct. 4, 1947, she married the love of her life, Roy Hartner, at her parents’ home, on the hottest day of the year.&nbsp; After a honeymoon trip through the Southwest, they settled in Clay County where they spent the next 18 years farming and growing their family.&nbsp; In 1965, they left farming and moved to Boulder, Colorado.

Away from the farming life, they had the opportunity to spend more time doing the things they loved.&nbsp; While Phyllis worked much of her life, often in jobs that showcased her excellent sewing skills, she and Roy spent many days hiking, camping and off-roading in the mountains around Boulder.&nbsp; Her love of travel was obvious to everyone who knew her.&nbsp; During their 67-year marriage, they traveled to all 50 states, Canada, Mexico and Europe.&nbsp; In later years, they took off in their motorhome to travel around the U.S. helping build churches through the Laborers for Christ program of the Lutheran Church, Missouri Synod.

While her church was very important to her, her family was the light of her life.&nbsp; After retirement, she and Roy moved to Loveland, CO in 1999 to be closer to their grandchildren.&nbsp; She was a doting grandma, always welcoming arrivals with fresh baked chocolate chip cookies.&nbsp; Never one to sit around, she was always ready to lend a hand wherever needed.&nbsp; Her grandchildren will forever fondly remember her color-themed Christmas trees, her love of Precious Moments figurines and her signature “shh, shh, shh” whenever things got too loud. &nbsp;&nbsp;Two years after Roy’s death in 2015, she moved to Longmont, CO, where she spent her final days.

She was preceded in death by her parents, brothers Gwain and Melvin, an infant brother, Richard, and her beloved husband, Roy.&nbsp; 

She is survived by her sons Rick (Rosemary) and Daryl Hartner, daughter Trudy (Mike) Loucks, grandchildren Marianne (Jeff) Hartner-Godown, Auliya McCauley-Hartner, Talia (Pete) Damrow, Hailey, Wilson and Joely Loucks, great-granddaughter Reina Damrow, brothers Truman (Leona) and Eldon Woellhof and many nieces and nephews.

A memorial service will be held at Neill-Schwensen-Rook Funeral Home on Mon. May 23 at 1:30 p.m. with internment following at Greenwood Cemetery, Clay Center, Kansas.&nbsp;

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that any memorial donations be made to Bristol Hospice of Northern Colorado, by mail at 3770 Puritan Way, Suite E, Frederick, CO&nbsp; 80516 or online at&nbsp;<a href="https://bristolfoundation.org/donation-page/">https://bristolfoundation.org/donation-page/</a>.
