<a href="https://www.nsrfh.com/obituary/jim-beck">Obituary | Jim Beck | Neill-Schwensen-Rook Funeral Home (nsrfh.com)</a>

James (Jim) Edgar Beck, 71, passed away January 4, 2022 in Founders Crest care center in Wichita, Kansas.&nbsp; He was born June 26, 1950 in Enid, Oklahoma to Audrey (Yager) Beck and James (Jim) Paul Beck.&nbsp; 

He was a 1968 graduate of Arkansas City High School, a 1972 graduate of Emporia State University, and a 1995 graduate of the Boulder Graduate School of Banking.&nbsp; He served in the Oklahoma Army National Guard for six years. 

He was united in marriage to Susan Stutzman on August 20, 1972 in Viola, Kansas. They made a home in Arkansas City, Kansas until 1978 when Jim accepted the job of purchasing agent at GT in Clay Center, Kansas. In 1982 he accepted a position at Union State Bank where he held the roles of operations officer and vice president for 34 years until his retirement in 2016. 

In 1976, he and Susan welcomed the birth of their daughter Jill Beck and in 1979, Jamie (Beck) Proffer. Jim became a proud grandfather to Caden Proffer in 2007, traveling with Susan to Istanbul, Turkey for his birth, and Caleb Proffer in 2010.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

With the heart of a servant leader, Jim loved to serve the community in a variety of roles including on the boards of the Clay County Arts Council, Clay Center Chamber of Commerce, Clay Center Economic Development Council, Clay Center Carnegie Library, Head Start, and his beloved Clay Center United Methodist Church where he volunteered in numerous roles. Jim thoroughly enjoyed four mission trips to Costa Rica in the early 1980s where he helped construct church buildings. He also served with Susan in Pascagoula, Mississippi following Hurricane Katrina where he helped rebuild homes for victims of the devastation.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Jim enjoyed photography and often displayed his work at various locations throughout Clay Center. He took frequent trips around Clay County to capture the way the evening light falls on rural churches at dusk, snow and ice draped trees after a snowstorm, the brilliantly colored autumn leaves on Frederick Street, blazing red and orange controlled prairie grass fires, poetic abandoned barns, and brilliant summer Kansas sunsets. He saw beauty in most things and had an artistic eye to seize it and he could often be found with his Canon 35 mm DSLR camera hung around his neck just waiting for the next opportunity to capture glory.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Another of Jim’s passions was woodworking and carpentry. He installed a woodshop in the basement of his home and masterfully designed and crafted over a dozen pieces of furniture for friends and family over the years. He also did a number of home remodeling projects including finishing basements and building a deck from scratch with his own design.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Jim loved cars and driving fast. In 1992, he purchased a 1977 MGB convertible and enjoyed fully restoring and then zipping around town in it, encouraging others to join along for the ride. For his 60th birthday, he took the opportunity to drive a NASCAR on the track at the motorway in Kansas City, Kansas.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Jim had many other interests... he loved all types of music including the local city band and various artists the Arts Council brought to town over the years. An avid reader, you could often catch him reading Tom Clancy’s or Sue Grafton’s latest thriller. He adored the Kansas State University women’s basketball team attending games using his season tickets with Susan and friends. He rode his bicycle to work and around town for many years. He rarely missed television coverage of the Kansas City Royals and Chiefs. He enjoyed traveling around the country with Susan, especially locations where he could use his photography talent or experience adventures such as taking hot air balloon rides and zip lining. The love of his life, second only to Susan (of course), was chocolate. He enjoyed a well-crafted pun, told his share of “dad jokes,” and often used his Donald Duck voice to make little ones giggle.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Survivors include his loving wife Susan, daughters Jill and Jamie, son-in-law Daniel Proffer, grandsons Caden and Caleb, brother Richard Beck and his wife Pat, grandniece Phoebe (Mattingly) Parker and husband Forrest, cousins Brenda (Barnes) Montoya, Larry Barnes, John Yager, Jeffrey Yager, Jason Yager, and Chuck Proudfoot.&nbsp; 

He was proceeded in death by his parents, Jim and Audrey, and niece Krista Beck.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Visitation will be Sunday, January 9, 2022 from 2:00 – 5:00 p.m. at Neil Schwensen Rook funeral home in Clay Center.

The celebration of life will be Monday, January 10, 2022 at 1:30 p.m. at Clay Center United Methodist Church followed by burial at Greenwood Cemetery.&nbsp;

The family asks that in lieu of flowers, donations be sent to the Clay County Arts Council or the Clay Center United Methodist Church.&nbsp;

Masks are required at the visitation and celebration of life.

<a href="https://www.mcdonaldrobertsfuneralservice.com/obituary/kenneth-holmes">Obituary | Kenneth Holmes of Tipton, Kansas | Roberts Family Funeral Service (mcdonaldrobertsfuneralservice.com)</a>

Kenneth Dean Holmes was born to Leslie Evert and Bessie Gertrude (Stafford) Holmes on July 28, 1924 at St. Joseph Hospital in Concordia, Kansas. He passed away on January 4, 2022 at the Resident Care Center in Beloit, Kansas at the age of 97.

Kenneth was married to Marcella Lucille Sterba on June 1, 1943 at Belleville, Kansas. To this union eight children were born. After nearly 59 years of marriage, Marcella passed away on May 23, 2002.

Kenneth grew up on a farm east of Republic, Kansas and graduated from Republic High School in 1942. He completed the Normal Training Program his senior year and began his teaching career in the fall of 1942 at Lowland School north of Munden, Kansas. Kenneth served in the US Navy and, upon release, returned to teaching in rural Republic County. 

Kenneth and Marcella took up farming near Byron, Nebraska in 1946. In 1968 they moved to a new home that Kenneth and family had built near Chester, Nebraska. The growing farming operation became known as “KenMar Farms.”

 While in the Byron and Chester communities, Kenneth served on the Byron School Board, Byron Lions Club, Chester-Hubbell School Board and director on the Production Credit Association Regional Board. In 1975 Kenneth became a co-owner of Chester Farmers Grain Company. 

In 1980 Kenneth and Marcella moved to Mart, Texas along with KenMar Farms. They retired in 1988 and moved to their new home in Waco, Texas. In retirement Kenneth continued to manage KenMar Farms and partnered in Oak Ridge Realty, a real estate brokerage firm. In 2001 Kenneth and Marcella moved back to Kansas where they lived in Belleville. Kenneth moved to Salina, Kansas in 2006 and then to Tipton, Kansas in 2012.

Kenneth was an active member of the Catholic Church. He served as an acolyte and eucharistic minister. Kenneth was a member of the Knights of Columbus and served as Grand Knight, Faithful Navigator, and Nebraska State Deputy. 

Kenneth placed a high value on faith, family, hard work, and education. He enjoyed singing and playing his guitar, banjo, and harmonica. He entertained playing his banjo and harmonica as recent as this past Thanksgiving Day. Kenneth and Marcella loved to travel and drove every U.S. state, including Alaska by way of Canada. Kenneth was a typical farmer who could build or fix about anything. In retirement he delighted children and grandchildren with his woodworking creations.

Kenneth’s parents, seven brothers, two sisters, his loving wife, and his dear daughter, Kathryn Francis preceded him in death. 

Survivors include seven children, Marcella Tomooka, Kenneth (Lorraine) Holmes, Patricia (Bob) Veach, Marilyn (Frank) Ohnsat, James (Cindy) Holmes, John Holmes, and Loretta (Terry) Wehrs; 26 grandchildren; 51 great-grandchildren; 5 great-great-grandchildren; and many nieces and nephews.

Funeral services will be at 10:30 a.m. Friday, January 7 at the St. Boniface Catholic Church in Tipton, officiated by Fr. Daryl Olmstead and his grandson, Fr. Kenneth Wehrs, and burial services will be at 3:30 p.m. Friday at the St. Georges Cemetery near Munden, Kansas. A parish rosary will be at 7 p.m. Thursday at the Church, and visitation will be from 5 p..m. until the rosary service begins Thursday at the Church. Memorials may be given to the Resident Care Center.

<a href="https://www.chaputbuoy.com/obituary/robert-bob-simoneau">Obituary | Robert "Bob" Francis Simoneau of Concordia, Kansas | Chaput-Buoy Funeral Home (chaputbuoy.com)</a>

Robert “Bob” Francis Simoneau, age 77, entered into rest on January 5, 2022 at the Cloud County Health Center, Concordia, Kansas.&nbsp; Robert was born October 10, 1944 in Palco, Kansas to Philip and Jeanette&nbsp;(Benoit) Simoneau.&nbsp;

Bob was known to many people, grew up in Damar, Kansas and attended the schools there graduating in 1962.&nbsp;&nbsp;

He met the love of his life Verla Elaine Tyrrell during the summer of 1964. They married November 7, 1964 in New Almelo, Kansas.&nbsp;&nbsp;They had four children, Jeannie, Paul, Denise, and Cory. They lived in various places from Salina, Kansas to Hill City, Kansas to Tulsa, Oklahoma and Palm Desert, California, and many places in between.

Bob stayed in the construction business his entire life until he retired October 2021.&nbsp;He loved to work, and worked until the day before his surgery.&nbsp;He was always doing something and could not sit still. He was a hard worker starting his first job at the age of 13.

<a href="https://www.ryanmortuary.com/obituary/Ricky-Singleton">Obituary for Ricky Lee Singleton | Ryan Mortuary</a>

Ricky Lee Singleton, 63, passed away peacefully in his home in Solomon, Kansas, on Monday, January 3, 2022, after a courageous battle with leukemia. 

Ricky is survived by his wife Paula; his children Kasey Hanney (Devin) and Kirstie Withrow (Joey); his brother Ron Jones (Fran); his grandchild Scarlett Withrow; and many nieces, nephews, cousins and close friends that will honor his memory by living their life to the fullest.

If you were blessed to know Ricky, you know that he had an ornery soul and a heart of gold that was filled with stories, deep conversations, and witty comments that made you laugh, blush or even left you speechless. He was a rodeo clown and then became a truck driver for several years. His journey across the U.S. at both professions allowed him to take several walks of life and meet some of the greatest friends along the way. It was the simplest things in life like traveling, riding his motorcycle to rallies, cruising around in his Mustang, going to concerts, and spending quality time with his wife and family that made his life complete until the very end. His charismatic and genuine personality will be missed by many, and this world will never be the same without him here with us.

In accordance to his wishes, there will be a Celebration of Life to honor his memory. The family will release details of the gathering at a later date.

Memorial contributions can be made to the family in care of Ryan Mortuary, 137 N. Eighth St, Salina, Kansas 67401.
