Frank Herrman, 75, Salina, was born October 26, 1945 in Goodland, Kansas to Frank and Lena Herrman. Frank passed away Wednesday, September 1, 2021 near Colby.&nbsp; He was the third of six children. He graduated from Goodland High School and received a BA from Kansas State and an MA in special education from Fort Hays State. He also graduated from Cleveland Chiropractic College and spent four years serving in the Air Force Intelligence Branch during the Vietnam War.

He met Alice Wagner, his sister’s roommate at The University of Kansas, in 1969 after he got out of the service. They fell in love and got married in 1973. The couple celebrated their 48th wedding anniversary August the 2nd of this year.&nbsp;

Frank spent nine years working for the Union Pacific Railroad before going back to school and getting his masters in education. He was a beloved teacher at St. Francis for over twenty years.

Frank had a special gift for remembering people’s names as well as making them feel welcome and important. 

He was very proud of his two daughters, Heather Herrman and Jessica Herrman-Derrick. He was an avid follower and supporter of their athletic and professional endeavors. He will be greatly missed by all of those who were fortunate enough to have had him as a part of their lives. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

He was preceded in death by his parents Frank and Lena Herrman, brother Ronald Herrman; niece Cindy Clark; and brother-in-law Archie Wicke. 

He is survived by his wife Alice Herrman, his two daughters Jessica (John) Herrman-Derrick of Gadsden, AL, and Heather (Parker Staley) Herrman, of Santa Fe, NM, as well as his two grandsons, Albert and Charles Staley, whom he loved to wake up early with on visits and spoil with special treats.

<a href="https://www.wilsonfamilyfuneralhome.com/obituary/barbara-keller-johnson">Obituary | Barbara Keller Johnson of Assaria, Kansas | Wilson Family Funeral Home</a>

Barbara Keller Johnson joined the heavenly family of angels on August 30, 2021 where she continues to watch over all of her family and friends across the country.

Barbara Gene was born on April 30, 1953 in Winchester, Virginia to Kenneth and Gene Maphis Keller. Her generous heart and spirit made her the best daughter, sister, friend, teacher, and so many more titles. She lived briefly in a few locations with her parents before the young family settled in Toms Brook, VA, home to both of her parents. &nbsp;

She was a rock that helped her grandparents with gardening and other projects on their small farm, contributed in many ways to the family truck stop, and served as a role model to her three siblings, even saving her youngest brother from drowning when he impulsively jumped into a hotel pool as a non-swimmer. 

She also enjoyed learning new hobbies and sharing with others – playing the organ at church, photographing family and friends and developing the pictures in the dark room, teaching her dad (and many others) to ski, taking her niece to her first concert, and painting fun pictures for her family. 

Her love of music led her to Shenandoah University and later James Madison University, eventually allowing her to teach four decades of children and young adults to appreciate and perform choral and instrumental art. Barbara began her teaching career at Culpeper High School, where she built a thriving choral program that accommodated singers of all talents.&nbsp; Beyond music, she helped her students to grow to their full potential and experience the broader world. &nbsp;As her family of origin grew, she didn’t have in-laws…she simply gained more siblings and became a beloved grandmother.

Barbara’s biggest adventure occurred when she met and married Randy Johnson and relocated to Kansas after driving her cat, Sylvester, and a jam-packed car to Salina.&nbsp; Barbara and Randy enjoyed many happy years together, settling in Assaria, Kansas where she could indulge in her love of growing both flowers and vegetables under the clear blue skies.&nbsp; She and Randy shared many interests, including a love of the outdoors.&nbsp; Randy introduced her to the beauty of Glen Elder, where they spent many happy hours hunting from his duck blind or fishing from his boat.&nbsp; She loved to photograph the enormous flocks of geese that flew through the area on their annual seasonal migrations.&nbsp; She and Randy also enjoyed football and were often neck and neck in the friendly NFL pool in which they participated with other friends and co-workers.&nbsp; They also shared a deep love for history, particularly the Civil War and World War II eras, and would spend hours reading and discussing the finer points of those troubled times.&nbsp;

Their most joyous roles, however, were as Papaw and Mamaw to the children of Randy’s son John and his wife Kelley:&nbsp; Riley, Emma, Ellie, Morgan, and MacKenzie.&nbsp; Papaw and Mamaw loved their grandchildren with all their hearts, and delighted in each minute spent with them, whether it was teaching them how to drive the lawn mower tractors, make killer deviled eggs, or create tie-dye shirts.&nbsp; Many happy hours were spent just hanging out on the front porch, trading stories, eating frozen pops, and playing Simon Says.&nbsp; Barbara truly delighted in reprising the pivotal role her own grandmother had played in her life, including laughing at many knock-knock jokes!

Her patience, compassion, and sunny nature endeared her to her students, co-workers, and administrators at Hope, Bennington and Tescott, where she had retired from teaching at the end of last spring.&nbsp; She loved working with children and teens of all ages, and always provided an understanding ear and gentle encouragement when necessary.&nbsp; Not every teacher can successfully work with—and enjoy— children ages kindergarten through 12th&nbsp;grade, but she had the skills required to appreciate all ages and bring out the best in her students.

Although we will sorely miss Barbara in our lives, we are grateful to have had this wonderful person as a family member, friend, neighbor, co-worker, and teacher, and know she will remain forever in our hearts. We can all take some comfort in knowing she now sings her songs with the angels, and flies with the butterflies.

Obituary | Kathryn Henderson of Glasco, Kansas | Roberts Family Funeral Service (mcdonaldrobertsfuneralservice.com)

Kathryn Elizabeth Henderson was born on January 18, 1939 in Gorham, Kansas, the first child of Fred and Linetta Wagner Zimmerman. She died suddenly on Sunday, August 29, 2021 at her home in Glasco, Kansas at the age of 82 years.

She grew up in western Kansas and spent a lot of time at her grandmother’s house, attended a one-room schoolhouse and then public school at Russell. She graduated from Morrowville High School in 1956 where she was active in the glee club and playing sousaphone in the band. 

On October 26, 1958, she was united in marriage with Eldon Henderson in Washington, KS. Three children were born to this union, Debra, James, and Ellen. The family briefly lived in Fairbury and Lincoln, Nebraska, before moving to Glasco in the fall of 1962, where Eldon opened the station, and she the family. They were privileged to spend more than 54 years of marriage together before he died in May 2013.

In addition to raising her family, she was an avid seamstress, and also enjoyed crocheting, and in later years, quilting. She was a tremendous cook, and nobody ever left the table hungry. She also enjoyed gardening, and from the garden did a lot of canning. She loved walking, and walked many miles each day for more than 40 years, participating and supporting the Walk Kansas program. When she walked, she used that as her best time to do her thinking and relaxing.

Kathryn was also very active in St. Paul’s Lutheran Church, where she served in the Ladies Aid and church council for many years. She taught Sunday school, catechism, and bible school. She also was involved in the Glasco Public Library, where she was active in the Mother Goose Story Hour, initially sponsored by the Glasco Lauraceae Study Club.

In addition to her husband Eldon, she was preceded in death by her parents, and her brothers Alvin Zimmerman and Fred Zimmerman, Jr.

Kathryn is survived by her children Debra and husband Donald Heiland Jr. of Topeka, James of Lindsborg, and Ellen Henderson of Junction City; grandson Donald Heiland III and his wife Vidhi;&nbsp; sisters JoAnn Moore of Haddam, Kansas and Mary Ellen Marschman of Fairbury, Nebraska; and a host of friends and relatives.

Funeral services will be at 10 a.m. Thursday, September 2 at St. Paul's Lutheran Church in Glasco. Visitation will be from noon to 7 p.m. with family present from 5-7 p.m. Wednesday at the Roberts Family Funeral Home in Beloit.
