Albert Montgomery Ward

<a href="https://yazelmeglifh.com/obituaries/leon-mills">Leon Mills Obituary 2021 - Yazel - Megli Funeral Homes (yazelmeglifh.com)</a>

As a boy, Leon Mills spent hours riding his horse, Bob, up and down wooded hills and ravines in hot pursuit of outlaws and bandits. Years later, as a consulting veterinarian for feedlots, he spent hours driving through western Kansas and the Texas and Oklahoma panhandles. His independent spirit and love of the country never changed. Leon was born to Joe and Cordelia (Anderson) Mills on May 10, 1940 in Abilene, Kansas. He and his older sisters Joanna and Kitty grew up on the family farm that bordered nearby Enterprise. He enjoyed helping raise crops and livestock—but not chickens—and went to school in Enterprise and Chapman, graduating from Dickinson County Community High School in 1958. In high school, he was active in 4-H and FFA, but music mattered most and he became an accomplished trombonist. Lucky for him, his sister Kitty was a talented pianist and they spent hours playing popular songs together. As a junior, not only was he deemed worthy to play in the Abilene Municipal Band, he marched with them down Pennsylvania Avenue, leading President Eisenhower’s second inaugural parade. That summer at the county fair, Pat Dawe and her hot pink shorts caught his attention and they began dating their senior year at rival high schools. As graduation neared, Leon and his mother went through Kansas State University’s college catalog, looking at majors. They started at A, but nothing clicked until they got to V, veterinary medicine. Leon and Pat continued dating at K-State, where he joined Delta Tau Delta and played in the symphony orchestra. They married three years later on July 9, 1961 and by 1964, when Leon earned his doctorate in veterinary medicine, Pat had graduated and their son Mark was born. Leon worked in mixed animal practices, for a pharmaceutical research company, and served two years as a U.S. Army captain and a post veterinarian at Ft. Riley. While there, he shared caring for Chief, the last U.S. Army combat cavalry charger and already 35 years old. Later, Dad laughed that no veterinarian wanted to be on duty if Chief so much as coughed. But the true highlights of those years were the births of son Scott and daughter Cindy. When his sister Joanna’s husband, Joe Clemence, offered him a position at his feedlot outside of Herington, Kansas, the family of five moved and settled for good. Leon also bought a local mixed animal practice and Pat managed the books while their dachshunds, Muffin and Shadrach, patrolled the waiting room. In 1980, Leon took a leap, sold his practice, and joined the feedlot consulting firm of Jim Sheldon and Associates. He’d found his niche and later became an independent consultant. Clients appreciated his integrity and the results he produced, pharmaceutical companies sought out his expertise, and his children learned not to ask, “What’s in the cooler?”—the answer was probably “brain tissue for the lab.” He took joy in his children’s joy, never missed a concert, game, or performance, and spent countless weekends at parades and rodeos as a Herington High Striders dad. As his children married and had children, he threw them just as far in the swimming pool as he had their parents and he loved on them just as hard, too. Retirement wasn’t easy, but K-State sports and cruises with friends helped until his battle with Parkinson’s disease began. The relentless loss of mobility and declining health frustrated him greatly. Even so, hospital nurses and caregivers appreciated his wit and how hard he tried to keep a brave face. On November 14, 2021, he died quietly at home, in his sleep.

His parents and brother-in-law, Bruce Dalton, passed before him. 

His survivors already miss him greatly: his wife of 60 years, Pat, of Herington, his children Mark Mills (Claudia) of Prairie Village, Kansas, Scott Mills of Shawnee, Kansas, Cindy Herbel (Jerry) of Mesa, Arizona, grandchildren Haley, Seth, Kelsey, Caroline, Olivia, Carly, Louisa, sisters Joanna Clemence (Joe) of Abilene, Kansas, Kitty Dalton of Salina, Kansas and several nieces, nephews and their families.

His family will gather with friends on Saturday, November 20, at 9:30 a.m. for the internment of ashes at Mount Hope Cemetery (1005 S. Lincoln Street, Enterprise) and again at 11:00 a.m. for a memorial service at St. Paul Lutheran Church (114 N 8th Street, Herington). A lunch and fellowship will immediately follow the service at St. Paul Parish Hall.

 </figure><a href="https://yazelmeglifh.com/obituaries/leon-mills">Leon Mills Obituary 2021 - Yazel - Megli Funeral Homes (yazelmeglifh.com)</a>May 10, 1940 - November 14, 2021As a boy, Leon Mills spent hours riding his horse, Bob, up and down wooded hills and ravines in hot pursuit of outlaws and bandits. Years later, as a consulting veterinarian for feedlots, he spent hours driving through western Kansas and the Texas and Oklahoma panhandles. His independent spirit and love of the country never changed. Leon was born to Joe and Cordelia (Anderson) Mills on May 10, 1940 in Abilene, Kansas. He and his older sisters Joanna and Kitty grew up on the family farm that bordered nearby Enterprise. He enjoyed helping raise crops and livestock—but not chickens—and went to school in Enterprise and Chapman, graduating from Dickinson County Community High School in 1958. In high school, he was active in 4-H and FFA, but music mattered most and he became an accomplished trombonist. Lucky for him, his sister Kitty was a talented pianist and they spent hours playing popular songs together. As a junior, not only was he deemed worthy to play in the Abilene Municipal Band, he marched with them down Pennsylvania Avenue, leading President Eisenhower’s second inaugural parade. That summer at the county fair, Pat Dawe and her hot pink shorts caught his attention and they began dating their senior year at rival high schools. As graduation neared, Leon and his mother went through Kansas State University’s college catalog, looking at majors. They started at A, but nothing clicked until they got to V, veterinary medicine. Leon and Pat continued dating at K-State, where he joined Delta Tau Delta and played in the symphony orchestra. They married three years later on July 9, 1961 and by 1964, when Leon earned his doctorate in veterinary medicine, Pat had graduated and their son Mark was born. Leon worked in mixed animal practices, for a pharmaceutical research company, and served two years as a U.S. Army captain and a post veterinarian at Ft. Riley. While there, he shared caring for Chief, the last U.S. Army combat cavalry charger and already 35 years old. Later, Dad laughed that no veterinarian wanted to be on duty if Chief so much as coughed. But the true highlights of those years were the births of son Scott and daughter Cindy. When his sister Joanna’s husband, Joe Clemence, offered him a position at his feedlot outside of Herington, Kansas, the family of five moved and settled for good. Leon also bought a local mixed animal practice and Pat managed the books while their dachshunds, Muffin and Shadrach, patrolled the waiting room. In 1980, Leon took a leap, sold his practice, and joined the feedlot consulting firm of Jim Sheldon and Associates. He’d found his niche and later became an independent consultant. Clients appreciated his integrity and the results he produced, pharmaceutical companies sought out his expertise, and his children learned not to ask, “What’s in the cooler?”—the answer was probably “brain tissue for the lab.” He took joy in his children’s joy, never missed a concert, game, or performance, and spent countless weekends at parades and rodeos as a Herington High Striders dad. As his children married and had children, he threw them just as far in the swimming pool as he had their parents and he loved on them just as hard, too. Retirement wasn’t easy, but K-State sports and cruises with friends helped until his battle with Parkinson’s disease began. The relentless loss of mobility and declining health frustrated him greatly. Even so, hospital nurses and caregivers appreciated his wit and how hard he tried to keep a brave face. On November 14, 2021, he died quietly at home, in his sleep. His parents and brother-in-law, Bruce Dalton, passed before him. His survivors already miss him greatly: his wife of 60 years, Pat, of Herington, his children Mark Mills (Claudia) of Prairie Village, Kansas, Scott Mills of Shawnee, Kansas, Cindy Herbel (Jerry) of Mesa, Arizona, grandchildren Haley, Seth, Kelsey, Caroline, Olivia, Carly, Louisa, sisters Joanna Clemence (Joe) of Abilene, Kansas, Kitty Dalton of Salina, Kansas and several nieces, nephews and their families.His family will gather with friends on Saturday, November 20, at 9:30 a.m. for the internment of ashes at Mount Hope Cemetery (1005 S. Lincoln Street, Enterprise) and again at 11:00 a.m. for a memorial service at St. Paul Lutheran Church (114 N 8th Street, Herington). A lunch and fellowship will immediately follow the service at St. Paul Parish Hall. Memorial contributions in his name may be made to St. Paul Lutheran Church or the Parkinson’s Foundation, in care of the funeral home.

<a href="https://www.schoenfhm.com/obituary/Nyla-Powell">Obituary for Nyla M. (Marsh) Powell | Schoen Funeral Home (schoenfhm.com)</a>

August 3, 1955 ~ November 14, 2021 (age 66)

Nyla Marie (Marsh) Powell, age 66, passed away in her home on November 14, 2021, in Downs, KS. She was born to Charles Marsh and Charlotte (Willmarth) Marsh in Sibley, Iowa on August 3, 1955. &nbsp;

Nyla may have been born in Iowa, but she laid down her roots in Downs, KS where she dedicated her life and was a tremendous asset to the community. 

In April of 1974 she was united in marriage to Brad Gant and to that union Corinne Renee was born. The past four years she also had a fur son, Kirby, whom she loved tremendously. Nyla was also a bonus mom to Brandy Kirchhoff Becker for many years.&nbsp;

Nyla’s truest loves were her grandchildren Kennedy, Tatum, Cooper, and Declan. She loved to support them in all their extracurricular activities. With all the exciting activities she found another passion to take photos. She became well-known in the family as the one who would capture all the beautiful moments with her love of taking pictures. Nyla was also well-known to her family and friends for making Christmas stockings as a new baby or significant other was added to the family. Everyone cherished these stockings because she made sure they represented each individual and she put her love and time into them.&nbsp;

Nyla graduated from Minneapolis High School and went on to get her associate's degree at the vo-tech in Beloit, Ks. 

Once living in Downs, she found her forever workplace and worked at the local pharmacies that were owned by Don Heiland, Kelly Berkley and Shawna Doane. In 1999 she went and received certification as a pharmacy technician.&nbsp;

Dedicating many years to the Downs Parks and Recreation group, she became a true asset to the organization and community. Nyla made sure the baseball/softball teams were well supported and that the children of the community were taken care of through that organization. Nyla loved living in Downs and that love she proved through all years being so faithful to the various organizations and jobs she had.&nbsp;

Nyla is preceded in death&nbsp;by her parents and Betty Kaspers (mother-in-law) and left to mourn her is her daughter Corinne (Bryan) Hoard, Kennedy Walsh (Alexis Ryan), Tatum, Cooper, Declan Hoard, her siblings Kevin, Valerie, Calvin, Margaret, Anthony and Aaron, sister-in-law Lana Gant and family Lela, Trevor, Hadee, Tynlee, Ridge Arnoldy, Dee, Jesse, Byntlee and Kessler Winkel, nieces and nephews that she dearly loved and friends that became family, and a beautiful community that she cherished.&nbsp;

Nyla will be forever missed by her family, friends, and co-workers. She will remembered for many things but most of all for loving her family and her work.

Memorial services will take place at a later date. 

In lieu of flowers memorials may be made to the Downs Parks and Recreation.&nbsp;

&nbsp;December 30, 1924 - November 10, 2021

Reva Jane (Thurlow) Hoffman, 96, of Chapman, Kansas, passed away Nov. 10, 2021, with family by her side. A celebration of life will be held on Saturday, Dec. 11, 2021, at the Chapman United Methodist Church with the family present for visitation beginning at 10 a.m. and a service at 11:30 a.m. Attendees are invited to join the family for a meal and to spend the afternoon reminiscing in the Methodist Fellowship Hall. Interment will be later at Madura Cemetery in rural Clay County.

The service will be livestreamed on the Chapman United Methodist Church Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/chapmanumc). 

Online condolences may be shared at www.londeenfuneralchapel.com Reva was born Dec. 30, 1924, the daughter of Elizabeth (Luthi) and Charles Thurlow.

She was a native of the Wakefield area, graduated with the class of 1942 from Dickinson County Community High School in Chapman and attended Kansas State College, pursuing her passion for horticulture. She was a 4-H member in Clay County and a National 4-H Congress trip winner in 1945. 

Following high school, Reva taught at the Diamond and Golden Ridge country schools in Clay County and then at rural Garfield in Dickinson County.

 On May 12, 1946, she married Dean Hoffman and farmed alongside Dean in Dickinson, Butler and Clay counties before the couple settled south of Pearl, where they lived for nearly 50 years. 

Reva was very active in the community, serving as a 4-H leader for more than 20 years, as well as a member and officer of both the Dickinson County Republican Women’s Club and the Farm Bureau. She served on the election board for Liberty Township for nearly 40 years and was employed by ALCO-Duckwall for 28 years, retiring at age 86. 

Although she didn’t complete a college degree, she was a life-long learner and saw to it her four children each graduated from Kansas State University. 

She always will be remembered for her love of family, her delicious fried chicken, cherry pie, sweet pickles, hot rolls and chocolate cake, but most memorable are her mischievous smile, her gracious demeanor, her passion for nature – especially wild birds and the flowers and plants she generously shared with everyone – and the gentle care she extended to the many baby lambs, pigs and calves that paraded through her home. Reva is survived by sons Dan (Linda) of Edmond, Okla., and Gary of Scottsbluff, Neb.; daughters Deanna (Dee) Weeda (Monty Starlin) of Creston, Iowa, and Sally (Tim) Stroda of Manhattan; grandchildren Matthew (Jenn) Hoffman of St. Augustine, Fla., Daniel (Jenni) Hoffman of Abilene, Cameron Weeda of Creston, Iowa, Candace Weeda Strobbe (Chet) of Cascade, Mont., Jacob (Chelsea) Stroda of Randolph and Wade Stroda of Newton, as well as great-grandchildren Makaela, Mia, Madison and Heston Hoffman. Also surviving are sisters-in-law Roberta Thurlow of Chapman and Bobbie Thurlow of Auburn, Ala., numerous nieces and nephews and her dear family at Chapman Valley Manor, who loved and cared for her the last six years of her life. Preceding her in death were her parents, husband Dean in 2015, sister Emily in 1936, and brothers and sisters-in-law Rod and Pearl, Russ and Mary Ann, Stanley and Carol; brothers Don and Wayne along with in-laws Charlotte and Charles E. Wilson, Leola and Mace Grigg, Orla and Bill Owens, Phyllis and Nick Radice, Marjorie Hoffman, Bob and Louise Hoffman; and infant granddaughter Tina Hoffman. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be given in Reva’s name to Dickinson County 4-H, the Wakefield Museum or Chapman Valley Manor and dropped off or sent in care of Londeen-Overlease Funeral Chapel, Box 411, Chapman, KS 67431.&nbsp;&nbsp;
