<a href="https://www.tibbettsfischerfuneralhome.com/obituary/Steven-Awalt">Obituary for Steven G. Awalt | Tibbetts-Fischer Funeral Home (tibbettsfischerfuneralhome.com)</a>

March 2, 1954 ~ January 15, 2022 (age 67)

Steven G. Awalt was born on March 2, 1954, the son of LeRoy and Fredda (Morgan) Awalt, and passed away on January 15, 2022, at the age of 67 years, 10 months and 13 days.

He married the love of his life, Rona Thomas, on July 14, 1973, and to this union three children were born, Heather, Shawn and Kyle. 

Steve was very much a family man, and held his family above all else. 

Steve enjoyed all things outdoors; he spent his younger years hunting, trapping and fishing, hobbies that he continued throughout his life. His occupations of farming and land excavation went hand in hand with his love of the land and outdoors. He loved stormy weather and embraced the turbulence, rather than hiding from it.

He is leaving behind his wife of 48 years, daughter Heather (Micaah), sons Shawn (Karla) and Kyle (Savanna), grandchildren Wade, Bayleigh, Stacia, Jaden, Trevor, Aidan, Kellner, Layna, Stevie, Emilyne, Vesper, three great-grandchildren, sister Mitch Awalt of Arizona, and brother Sam Awalt of Kentucky.

Welcoming him to his heavenly home are grandchildren Warren and Elliot Awalt, parents Fredda and LeRoy Awalt, in-laws Don and Frances Thomas, his grandparents, and a host of family and friends.

A private family memorial service will be held later this month.

In lieu of flowers, memorials are requested to the Republic Co. Museum or the Pike Valley Foundation, and may be sent in care of the funeral home.

Tibbetts-Fischer Funeral Home assisted the Awalt family with these arrangements, www.tibbettsfischerfuneralhome.com.

<a href="https://www.gliddenedigerfuneral.com/obituaries/Stephen-Mcdaniel-4/">Stephen Alton "Sam" McDaniel Obituary - Visitation &amp; Funeral Information (gliddenedigerfuneral.com)</a>

Stephen Alton "Sam" McDaniel, 56, of McPherson, KS, passed away at 10:55 p.m., Friday, January 14, 2022 at McPherson Hospital, McPherson County. Stephen was born in Roanoke, VA on December 26, 1965, a son of Lucille Grace (Hamstead) McDaniel, of St. John, Kansas and Alton Leigh McDaniel. Sam grew up in the Church of the Brethren where his dad was a pastor. He attended the Staunton, Virginia schools, and graduated from Quinter High School, Quinter, Kansas in 1984.

The auto restoration program at McPherson College is what brought Sam to McPherson where he attended the program for only one year, but that set in stone his lifetime love for cars and anything mechanical. Following his education, Sam worked as mechanic at the K-Mart Auto Shop where he and Malea met. In 1990 when K-mart closed their doors, his career path led him to Keystone Railway where he was a robotic welder technician for a couple years before starting his career with Sanofi in approximately 1993. Sanofi went on to become Abbott Laboratories and Hospira and we now know it as Pfizer. He would spend the next 25 years there before leaving in 2020. He currently was working for the McPherson YMCA. Stephen Alton "Sam" McDaniel was united in marriage to Malea Kubin Studer on October 11, 1987. The young couple established their first home together in an 1880's Victorian farmhouse north of McPherson. Sam adopted Malea's son, Michael and the couple were blessed with the addition of a daughter, Amanda. They were married for 17 years before being divorced. Sam was a natural born mechanic, getting that from his mother's side of the family, and could fix just about anything from cars to clocks to pinball machines as well as multimillion dollar pharmaceutical equipment. But that was not his only natural talent. Sam was also an excellent carpenter and repurposer. Sam had an old soul and had an eye and love for anything old that still had life in it. The 1880's Victorian farmhouse he and Malea bought is where many projects and much manpower went into restoring that beauty and building his shop which showcased all his interests and hobbies.

One of Sam's proudest moments was when he became a pilot and bought his own personal airplane. Those were some of his best times of life. He and another pilot friend actually flew solo to Osh Kosh to attend one of the biggest annual fly-in events. It was a lifetime dream that he fulfilled. Another great adventure was restoring an old postal jeep into an ice cream truck. Although it was a short-lived hobby, it gave him great pleasure to see excited, happy children waving $1.00 bills at him. You may have seen it driving around or at McPherson events. He called it Polar Pete's Frozen Treats. He is survived by his children Michael McDaniel and family of Concordia, Missouri and Amanda Moors and family of Louisburg, Kansas; his mother Lucille McDaniel of St. John, Kansas; his sisters Rebecca McDaniel of St. John, Kansas, Joy Rowe and husband Bob of Milford, Delaware, and Leigh Roberts and husband Jay of St. John, Kansas. He is also survived by three grandchildren other relatives and a host of friends. Sam was preceded in death by his father Alton McDaniel. A Celebration of Life come and go will take place at a later date and will be announced closer to time. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to McPherson County Humane Society or the McPherson College Restoration Program and they can be sent in care of the Glidden - Ediger Funeral Home, 222 West Euclid Street, McPherson, Kansas 67460.

September 14, 1941 ~ January 15, 2022 (age 80)

Leo Wm. Oberle, 80, of Lorraine, KS, went home to be with his Savior Jesus Christ, Saturday, January 15, 2022, at Ellsworth County Medical Center in Ellsworth, KS.

Leo was born September 14, 1941, in rural Bushton, Rice County, Kansas. He was the second son of Ambrose and Mary (Reif) Oberle. He graduated from Bushton Rural High School in the class of 1959.

In July 1972, Leo married Joyce K. Bisterfeldt of Holyrood, KS. To this union was born a daughter, Jill Ann and a son, Lee William. 

From 1968 to 1983, Leo hauled freight for Graves (A&amp;R) Truck Line in Manhattan, KS.

While engaged in farming his parents’ farm in rural Bushton, Leo also drove for various truck lines: Alexander Freight Line (Lyons, KS); Koch Oil Industries (Great Bend, KS); LOGEX Truck Line (Lyons), hauling liquid helium to New York, New Jersey, Anaheim, and San Francisco, CA weekly; and R&amp;S Truck Line (Great Bend), hauling Fuller Brush products to New Jersey.

Leo enjoyed all his working positions, many friends, and physical activities: hunting, fishing, camping, square dancing – a member of Hoisington Swinging Stars and Salina Twirlers -&nbsp; plus walking his furry friends “Rusty” and “Molly” when health permitted.

Through the years, Randy worked for several farmers in the area. He started working for Central Plastics and while working he got on as a volunteer firefighter with the McPherson Fire Department. He was later hired to work for the City of McPherson as a fire fighter and worked his way up to division chief when he retired in June of 2019.

June 24, 1932 ~ January 12, 2022 (age 89)

Anna J. Rempel, 89, passed away Wednesday, January 12, 2022, in Henderson, NE. She was born June 24, 1932, in Arnold, NE to John and Clara (Stephens) Halouska. Anna had five siblings. She attended school in Arnold and later in Aurora, NE.

<a href="https://www.ryanmortuary.com/obituary/Robert-Lancaster">Obituary for Robert LeRoy Lancaster | Ryan Mortuary</a>

March 20, 1935 ~ January 13, 2022 (age 86)

OVERLAND PARK - Robert “Bob” LeRoy Lancaster, 86, formerly of Salina, KS, passed away on January 13, 2022, in Overland Park, KS. 

Bob Lancaster was born on March 20, 1935, in Winfield, KS, to George and Myrtle (Wyatt) Lancaster. He attended and graduated from Plainview High School before enlisting in the Marines. After proudly serving in the Korean War from 1954-1957, he was awarded the Korean Service Medal, U.N. Service medal, National Defense Service Medal, and a Good Conduct medal. 

Shortly after the war, Bob met the love of his life, Donna in Wichita, KS. They quickly fell in love and married on November 23, 1957. It was a love that would last the next 64 years. They had five children together, Stephanie, Kelli, Sharla, Brad and Cheryl.

Bob spent most of his life working in the construction business where his love for building emerged. His strong work ethic, which he passed on to his children and grandchildren, led him to later start his own business, Lancaster Construction, which is still owned and operated today by his son Brad.

Bob had a deep love for sports, especially his K-State Wildcats and Wichita State Shockers. One could easily hear his voice rise above the crowd. In his retired years he spent his days golfing at the Elks Country Club with his beloved nephew, Rob Jensen. Along with his love for golf, Bob was an avid coin collector and could never turn down a good game of poker.
