Funeral service 10:30 a.m. Saturday, November 13, 2021 at Alexanderfeld Church, rural Hillsboro, officiated by Minister Orlin Ensz. Family will receive friends from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Friday at the Church. Memorials to Alexanderfeld Church in Care of Jost Funeral Home, P.O. Box 266, Hillsboro, KS 67063. Online condolences at www.jostfuneralhome.com. Life Sketch Taken from the Funeral Bulletin Pearl Joan (Toews) Ensz was born on March 21, 1931, near Ste. Anne, Manitoba, to David and Katherina (Reimer) Toews. She peacefully passed away on November 9, 2021, at the Moundridge Manor, Moundridge, KS. Her first eleven years were spent in Manitoba, after which she moved with her parents to Inman, Ks. During her school years in Manitoba, she attended a French school for a time and finished her formal education in country schools in the Inman area. At the age of twelve she was born again and was baptized into the Church of God in Christ, Mennonite, on January 23, 1944, at Inman, KS, by minister Jesse Johnson.

On November 2, 1958, she was married to Marvin Ensz at Inman, KS. They enjoyed 56 years of married life together. Two sons and four daughters were born to this union. They lived the first months of their married life with Dad’s parents, and then settled on a poultry and grain farm southeast of Hillsboro. Many of our childhood memories center around the old home on the hill where they raised their family. Mom enjoyed growing flowers, gardening and canning her produce. She was a woman of action, doing tasks promptly as she became aware of them. We remember many guests being at our home for meals. In 2004 our parents moved into Hillsboro, where they enjoyed their retirement years. Dad passed away in 2015 and shortly after, Mom moved into the Moundridge Manor, where her presence was a bright spot to those around her. She took a keen interest in all the details of her grandchildren’s lives. Over the last year she had several visions of Jesus, which were reassuring both to her and us. She was ready and waiting for the call home. She seemed to have a rallying spirit, often rebounding from health issues better than we expected, including a bout with COVID. Her last audible word was a clear, “Goodbye,” leaving us the comfort of knowing she was ready for the angels. Left to cherish precious memories are her six children: Carol, Galen and Teresa, Verna, Larry and Karen, all of Hillsboro, KS, Joyce and Terry Ensz, of Cimarron, KS, and Lois, of Hillsboro, KS; eleven grandchildren and three great-grandchildren; two sisters, Betty Penner, De Smet, SD, and Clara Toews, Hillsboro, KS; sister-in-law Olive Toews, De Smet, SD of Marvin’s family; Abe and Louise Ensz, Hillsboro, KS; Linda Regehr, Moundridge, KS, and Betty Ensz, Brooksville, MS; and her many nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents, her husband, three brothers, Bernhard in infancy, John and wife Velda, and Jim; one sister, Alma; brother-in-law Clarence Penner; two infant grandchildren and one infant great-granddaughter. Funeral services were held on November 13, 2021, at the Alexanderfeld Church of God in Christ, Mennonite, Hillsboro, KS. Officiating ministers were Orlin Ensz, Roger Unruh and Lonnie Penner. Burial was in the adjoining church cemetery.

<a href="https://www.chaputbuoy.com/obituary/noah-allison">Obituary | Noah Cleveland Allison of Redmond, Washington | Chaput-Buoy Funeral Home (chaputbuoy.com)</a>

With deep sorrow, we announce that Noah Cleveland Allison, age 13, left this earthly life on Friday, November 5, 2021 in Redmond, WA.&nbsp;&nbsp;He was born on September 20, 2008 in Bellevue, WA to Anthony Cleveland and Angela Kaye (Hopkins) Allison.&nbsp;He was a 7th&nbsp;grade student at Odle Middle School in Redmond, WA.

Born and raised in the Pacific Northwest, he and his parents liked to take long bike rides around local lakes and hike the trails to various summits. He and his dad had a special place they named the “awesome stream.” He loved vacation time with his family and friends, especially Diagon Alley in Universal Studios and any snowy destination. He was known for his quick wit, his infectious smile and his kind and compassionate spirit. A daily funny prank or joke could always be counted on. He was proud of his four budgies, Sky, Lucy, Juliet and Astro (aka Baby Bird) and loved teaching them to talk with his mom. Music was his greatest passion, spending many hours composing. He had an amazing portfolio with a bright, creative future ahead of him. Noah loved spending time with his friends.

Preliminary Note:
 It really doesn’t matter to me what is published or said about me as 
long the Lord is praised for giving me Salvation. First and foremost, 
Jesus is to be thanked and praised for living among us for about 30 
years and then suffering terribly – probably the worst – and what we 
perhaps can’t imagine – was bearing the shamefulness and ugliness of our
 sins before the Faith. Sins of hurting others, belittling others, 
lording it over others, neglecting others – perhaps much, much worse 
than the common sexual sins or immorality. The Faith, Too, is to be 
greatly praised for sending his son to us. The Holy Spirit – The Spirit 
of the Father the Song – too, is greatly to be praised for being in us 
and directing our thoughts and actions.

Because
 there may be “pressure” on family, however, to publish a somewhat 
detailed obituary, I will write the following. It might prevent some 
time-consuming “research/questioning” – and in a limited time.

Raymond
 Henry Pachta was born July 6, 1932, on a farm east of Belleville, 
Kansas. He made his heavenly journey home on Thursday, November 11, 
2021.&nbsp; His parents were Vincent J. Pachta and Magdalina (Baxa) Pachta. 
He was born shortly after the tornado that took down the Washington, 
Kansas courthouse. Because telephone lines were down, Grandma (Mary) 
Pachta tied and cut the umbilical cord before the doctor arrived.

Raymond was the 5th of nine children: Marcella, Irene, Joseph, Edward, Bernadine, Rita, Vincent, Paul, and John. 

Raymond
 graduated from Republican County grade schools, having attended Prairie
 Home District #86. He attended 2 years of high school in Belleville, 
Kansas. And then entered Conception Seminary, Conception, MO., 
graduating in 1950. 

Sent
 by the Catholic Diocese of Salina to Cincinnati, he attended St. 
Gregory’s and Mount St. Mary’s Seminaries, earning Bachelor and master’s
 degree in philosophy from the ATHENAEM of Ohio. During his final year, 
he was selected to be a student priest, being ordained July 21, 1957, in
 Middletown, OH. 

Raymond
 served at the Sacred Heart Cathedral in Salina from 1958-1963. Then he 
served in Concordia &amp; St. Joseph in Cloud County, Kansas until 1971.
 From 1971-1982 he served the parishes in Delphos, Glasco, and 
Meredith.&nbsp; 

Wishing
 to “do the most good possible,” Raymond requested working in the field 
of education.&nbsp; Three summers were spent studying at Catholic University 
of America, Washington D.C., with supplemental course work from 
Marymount College, Kansas State University, and Kansas University, where
 he received certification in teaching, counseling, and administration. 
He taught and established the guidance program at Sacred Heart High 
School in Salina and then served as principal at Notre Dame High School 
in Concordia, Kansas.&nbsp; While serving the parishes of Delphos, Glasco, 
and Meredith, he also provided the needed guidance services at St. 
John’s High school in Beloit, St. Xavier’s High school in Junction City 
and Tipton High school in Tipton, Kansas. He also served on the Salina 
Diocesan school board and the Salina Diocesan Council. During these 
years he often flew his plane or rode his motorcycle to these and other 
various tasks.

In
 the early 80’s Raymond worked as a carpenter’s assistant and farm 
worker, and then as night and weekend supervisor at St Joseph’s 
Children’s Home in Oklahoma City, 1983-1984. He then worked for five 
years in production &amp; parts distribution for El Dorado Industries, 
in Minneapolis, Kansas 1984-1989.&nbsp; His last 15 years of employment 
(1989-2004) was with the State of Kansas as a Vocational Rehabilitation 
Counselor.

On
 February 11, 1984, Raymond was married to Deloris (Gawith) Bergez in 
Delphos, Kansas.&nbsp; They then made their home there. The daughters are 
Jackie Bergez, Rheta (Bergez) Scheib (Jim), Sherry Bergez &amp; Marc 
Steven Bergez (Molly).&nbsp; Grandchildren: Kevin McFee, Austin Scheib 
(Tiffany), Colby Scheib, Kathryn McFee Bowers (Patrick), Corbin Scheib, 
Marc Bergez Jr., Charles Bergez, Nick Bergez (April), and Kaitlyn 
Bergez. &nbsp;Great-grandchildren: 12 and Great-Great Grandchildren: 3.

Raymond
 served on the Delphos City Council in the early 90’s, has been active 
on the local and district level (hearing aid chairman (2004-2007) of the
 Lions Club and has been secretary treasure of the Delphos Museum for a 
number of years.&nbsp; He also served 4 years lay representative from the 
Delphos Methodist Church to the annual conference.&nbsp; He also served on 
the local church administration board.

Concluding
 note:&nbsp; The above may seem like bragging.&nbsp; Motivation, however, is hard,
 if not impossible, to analyze. In the last analysis, it is the Lord who
 knows.&nbsp; I feel that I always - at least, most of the time - wanted to 
be a “good boy.”&nbsp; There was probably pride involved in this. I liked the
 praise. When I first thought of wanting to be a priest, I was too 
embarrassed - or scared - to say anything about it.&nbsp; When I did tell 
Monsignor Brown, he immediately made arrangements for me to go to the 
seminary from then on, it was “the thing I was supposed to do.”&nbsp; 
Homesickness or attractiveness to girls was just not allowed to be 
considered by me.&nbsp; At least when at home during vacations, I’m sure, 
being a seminarian was a matter of pride.&nbsp; I was looked up to and 
admired.

As
 a seminarian and at least in the earlier years as a priest my aim was 
to be “a good priest.”&nbsp; Though I took great pride in the priesthood and 
used it to take advantage of people, impose on them, and Lord it over 
them. I think I hurt many people and in some cases was not a person of 
character, like in some automobile deals.&nbsp; Car dealers treated priests 
very generously. It was easy to take advantage of them.&nbsp;

Even
 in regard to my resignation from the clergy and denomination, though 
the basic reasons were theological - and I have not changed my 
convictions - I’m not so sure pride wasn’t involved to a considerable 
extent - and may still be.&nbsp; I regret, though, my convictions remain the 
same today, as then, in regard to Jesus, salvation, and the church.&nbsp;

-So, for whatever this is all worth - here it is. Probably just praising the Lord, Jesus, especially - is the best!

 Raymond H. Pachta

Richard “Dick” Renfro passed away on November 10, 
2021, at the age of 87.&nbsp; Dick was born on October 6, 1934, in Spearville, 
Kansas, the son of Eugene and Bernice (Sams) Renfro.

He lived in Offerle, KS until 1943, then moved with his parents to 
Hutchinson, KS.&nbsp; Dick graduated from Hutchinson High School in 1952.

After high school, he graduated from Kansas State University in 1956 
with a BA degree in business.&nbsp; He was a pitcher and letterman on the 
K-State baseball team, and was a member of Phi Delta Theta fraternity.&nbsp; 
He was also a 1974 graduate of The Stonier Graduate School of Banking at
 Rutgers University.

Upon graduation from Kansas State, Dick worked in the Finance 
Department at The Boeing Company in Wichita.&nbsp; It was during his tenure 
at Boeing that he met his bride, Toni, who became his wonderful wife of 
62 years, on a blind date set up by mutual friends on Halloween 1958.

In 1963, Dick joined the IBM Corporation as a marketing 
representative.&nbsp; During his tenure with IBM he achieved five 100% Sales 
Clubs.&nbsp; He and his family moved to Salina in 1967 to open a new IBM 
sales office to cover North Central and Northwest Kansas.

In 1971 Dick joined the National Bank of America as a 
vice-president.&nbsp; In 1978 he was elected to the NBA Board of Directors, 
and in 1979 was promoted to Executive Vice President.&nbsp; In 1986 he was 
elected to the position of President and CEO. &nbsp;

In 1993 UMB Financial Corporation purchased NBA and five other 
central Kansas banks and in 1994 those banks were merged into the 
National Bank of America (UMB-NBA) with Salina as its headquarters.&nbsp; 
Renfro was named President and CEO of the merged bank UMB-NBA.&nbsp; He 
retired from his active duties in 2001, but remained as a member of the 
UMB-NBA Board of Directors.

Dick led a balanced life, and he was very active in community affairs
 and organizations. He knew the value of community and humbly accepted 
volunteer leadership roles that have helped shape Salina and the region 
in many different levels and areas.&nbsp; Among his activities were: First 
Presbyterian Church— where he served as Elder, Deacon and Trustee, as 
well as devoted member of the choir. K-State Alumni Association where he
 proudly served as the National President, and on the Board of 
Directors. K-State Athletics, Intercollegiate Athletic Council serving 
as Alumni Representative for 6 years. Salina Area Chamber of Commerce 
serving as Chairman, and two terms on the Board of Directors. Salina 
Airport Authority where he served as Chairman and on the Board of 
Directors. Salina Country Club, where he served as President, and three 
terms on the Board of Directors. Farmers State Bank (McPherson) Board of
 Directors. Rolling Hills Zoo Board of Directors. Downtown Lions Club, 
served as President, and on the Board of Directors. Salina Baseball 
Enterprises serving on the Board of Directors for 17 years. Member of 
the Kansas Bankers Association, served on the Governing Council. And 
finally, Member of the Salina Gridiron Club. 
Dick was Co-chair of a 1990 task force to promote the funding of the 
merger of Kansas College of Technology and Kansas State University (now 
K-State Salina).&nbsp; Project passed by a 2-1 margin and at the time 
generated $5.3 million to assist in the merger.

In 1983, at the request of Jack Hartman, K-State basketball coach, 
Dick successfully organized an exhibition game between the USA 
Pan-American team (Hartman was coach) that included Michael Jordan and a
 group of NBA players. Nearly 7,000 fans attended on a hot July evening 
at the Bi-Centennial Center (aka Tony’s Pizza Event Center).

But most of all Dick was known for his welcoming nature and kind 
heart. He never met a stranger, and genuinely had an interest in others 
and graciously lent support whenever he had the opportunity.

Dick was a dedicated family man, filled with love who always was 
there to guide, mentor and nurture. He was very proud of his family and 
all their accomplishments.&nbsp; He was proud of Toni in her role in together
 raising their 3 sons, and her success as a financial advisor and 
community leader.&nbsp; He enjoyed coaching and watching his sons Craig, Cary
 and Clark in their early years and watching them succeed professionally
 in their adult lives and respective careers.&nbsp; He adored his bond with 
his favorite daughter in law Amber and her devotion to the family.&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;

Dick and Toni waited patiently into their marriage to become 
grandparents, and they were blessed with the birth of their triplet 
granddaughters, Addison, Mallory and Claire in 2006. He was 
affectionately known as “Papa” to his granddaughters and their friends. 
He radiated with love and affection when doting about them to anyone 
that he met.&nbsp; Papa could be found in the front row of all their events, 
recognitions, and recitals with a beaming smile. Addison, Mallory and 
Claire have brought so much joy to him and Toni. He took great pride in 
seeing them grow into beautiful, talented and active young ladies.&nbsp; And 
lastly, grand-dogs Rafa and Seve’ have been such an integral and 
enjoyable part of the family.

He was preceded in death by his parents Eugene and Bernice (Sams) Renfro, and his sisters Virginia Woodside and Delores Frost. 
Survivors include wife, Toni, sons Craig of Salina, KS, Cary of Topeka, 
KS and Clark (Amber) of Salina, KS, granddaughters Addison, Mallory and 
Claire, grand-dogs Rafa and Seve’, nephew Larry Frost, nieces Lannie 
Kern, Sharon Hill and Jackie Tullous.

Glenna Rae Premer (White) passed away on the morning of November 6, 2021. She was being treated for leukemia at the University of Kansas Medical Center and passed away suddenly. She was 68 years old. Glenna was born on September 2, 1953 in Sayre, Oklahoma, the daughter of Clarence W. and Ruth Susie (Cooper) White. Her family moved to Guthrie and then to Perry, Oklahoma where she graduated from Perry High School.

Glenna married LeWayne Arden Premer on April 30, 1976. LeWayne brought two children, Roni and Randy, to the marriage. Later, Glenna and LeWayne added two more children, Ann and Ryan, to their family. 

The family settled in McPherson, Kansas where her husband and his brothers would own and operate Sirloin Stockades and later Montana Mikes across Kansas, Oklahoma, and Arizona. They also had the Best Western Holiday Manor in McPherson, Kansas, which LeWayne’s parents, Lester and Grace, had owned and operated. Glenna raised their children and supported her husband and their business. She was a vivacious, doting mom who deeply loved her children and provided heaps of encouragement. After her husband passed away and her children had graduated from college, Glenna moved to Lawrence where she has lived the past 17 years. Glenna fell in love with Lawrence after spending so much time there while her daughter was at the University of Kansas. She loved being a part of the community and had dear friends in her neighborhood. She was known to all in the Westwood Hills neighborhood where she was seen daily with a smile walking her beloved dogs, “the girls” Isabel and Lilli. In 2017, her daughter, Ann, and her family returned to Lawrence and moved to the same neighborhood as Glenna. Glenna “Nonna” became a fixture for her granddaughters, Mia and Libby, and was there for countless basketball games, soccer games, ballet recitals, piano recitals, birthdays, holidays, movies, dinners, swimming at the neighborhood pool, baking lots of cookies and just hugs. In McPherson, Glenna worked as a reporter at the McPherson Sentinel. Later, she worked as a court-certified mediator. She was the first coordinator of the small claims mediation project in the McPherson District Court from 2002 to 2004. She received mediation certificates from Bethel College and was certified by the Kansas Supreme Court. She started the Mediation Resource Center, Inc., a non-profit in Douglas County in 2007. In 2008, the Heartland Mediators Association presented her with the Margaret “Peg” Nichols Volunteer of the Year Award for distinguished service and commitment in the practice of conflict resolution. Glenna is survived by her daughter, Ann Premer and husband Rich Federico and their daughters Emilia “Mia” Premer Federico and Elizabeth “Libby” Premer Federico, all of Lawrence. She is also survived by her children and family through LeWayne, daughter, Roni Hernandez of Albuquerque (husband, Michael), son, Randy Premer of McPherson, grandson Aaron Premer (wife, Makenzie Premer), granddaughters, Jessica Larson (husband, Eric Larson), Melissa Gibbons (husband, Michael Gibbons), Michaela Hernandez, and great-granddaughters, Reghan and Gentry Premer, and Maya and Ella Larson, other family and a host of friends. She was preceded in death by her husband, son Ryan, parents Clarence and Ruth White, and her three brothers Clarence Richard, Gene, and Gary White. Glenna is deeply missed by her family and friends who will hold on tightly to the love and grace she gave them. Visitation will be held on Thursday, November 11, 2021 from 5 to 7 p.m. at the Glidden - Ediger Chapel, McPherson. Funeral services will be at 10:30 a.m., Friday, November 12 at the First United Methodist Church, McPherson, Kansas with Rev. Emily Spearman Cannon officiating. The service can be seen on the Church's Facebook page at:&nbsp;<a href="http://www.mcphersonfumc.com/" target="_blank">http://www.mcphersonfumc.com</a> Burial will be in the McPherson Cemetery.

<a href="https://www.stockhamfamily.com/obituaries/David-Nelson-61/">David Bradley Nelson Obituary - Visitation &amp; Funeral Information (stockhamfamily.com)</a>

David Bradley Nelson, son of Norris William and Helen Leighty Nelson, was born October 20, 1941, in Lincoln, Nebraska. He passed away at his home in Topeka, Kansas on November 4, 2021, at the age of 80 years and 15 days. David was confirmed in the Evangelical Covenant Church in McPherson, Kansas in 1953. He accepted Christ as his personal Savior that year at Camp Washunga. David was later baptized at First Baptist Church of McPherson. For more than two decades, he was a member of Northland Christian Church in Topeka, Kansas where he loved singing in the choir. Often on Palm Sunday, he would sing Handel’s Messiah with a special choir at Bethany College in Lindsborg, Kansas. He was united in marriage to Patricia (Patty) Louise Noller on October 7, 1960, in the Danforth Chapel on the Kansas State University campus located in Manhattan, Kansas

During college, David lettered in golf and won many tournaments playing for the K-State Golf Team. 

After college, they began their new life in Dodge City, Kansas where David was an accountant. 

To his marriage with Patty, five sons were eventually born: Bradley Allen, Montgomery Paul, Spencer Douglas, Justin Miles, and Chandler John. Later, they relocated to McPherson, Kansas to settle down and raise their boys. He was also the owner of Continental Aluminum Inc. from 1965 – 1978. David also became a real estate broker, an accountant with various manufacturing companies, a credit manager and finally a senior accountant with the city of Topeka, Kansas, retiring in 2006. 

After retirement, he and his wife, Patty, enjoyed touring the southern states where it was warm, playing golf and hitting the casinos. David loved ALL outside sports, especially those where Patty and their sons could participate. He was an avid upland and big game hunter. In the fall, he could be found hunting pheasants, quail, ducks. Special times were “The Big Hunt” along the Kansas/Nebraska state line at Thanksgiving, the deer hunting at Monte’s, crappie fishing at Lake Perry in the spring, and wading the Smokey and Little Blue Rivers for catfish during the summer. He also cherished the many golf scrambles with his wife, Patty, and sons. Each event included the family as much as possible. Other special times included teaching his grandsons Jordan and Levi how to hunt and fish. David was an entrepreneur and businessman, teaching his family the importance of finances throughout his life. He is survived by: his wife Patricia of Topeka, Kansas; his four sons, Montgomery Paul of Marquette, Kansas, Spencer Douglas of Kansas City, Missouri, Justin Miles of Muskogee, Oklahoma, Chandler John of Marquette, Kansas.

He was preceded in death by his first-born son Bradley Allen Nelson in 2016. 

He is also survived by grandchildren Jordan, Levi, Hannah, Moriah, Josiah and Asher from Spencer and wife, Laurie, and grandchildren, Riley, Miles, and Hope from Justin and wife Joy. He is also survived by one brother, John Mark Nelson and wife Susan of Bronx, New York and one sister, Margaret Louise Krehbiel and husband Mike of McPherson, Kansas. David is also survived by many nieces, nephews, and other relatives, along with many friends. Famous sayings and notes from David: “Back nine on Sunday” for golfing, “Don’t shoot the ducks” while hunting, “Rats” missed opportunity, “Dirty Dog” while fishing, “Zig-Zag” and “It’s a Runner – RUN” while pheasant hunting, “About 10-12 years ago” in conversation, “Let’s see what’s over the hill” while exploring, “Don’t see any fins” while fishing, “Can’t eat the horns” while deer hunting, “Money Putt” while golfing, “High Brush” while hunting” and “Crappie King” while fishing. “Calcutta”, “Hello 7!”, “They’re in the milo”, “Make sure” and the big three: Hunt, Fish &amp; Golf.

He also enjoyed traveling with Carol, and they were able to experience trips to the Olympic Games in both Los Angeles and Atlanta, and the Olympic Trials in Sacramento, watching two of his previous local athletes. They also&nbsp;took an enjoyable trip to Alaska, and had always wanted to return.
