<a href="https://www.tibbettsfischerfuneralhome.com/obituary/Marjorie-Walthers">Obituary for Marjorie M. (Chizek) Walthers | Tibbetts-Fischer Funeral Home (tibbettsfischerfuneralhome.com)</a>

Marjorie Mae Walthers was born on July 23, 1932, on the Chizek home place near Cuba, the daughter of Ernest and Amelia (Plucar) Chizek. Marjorie grew up on the family farm, and attended Cuba schools, graduating from Cuba High School in 1950. Following high school, Marjorie attended Bethany College in Lindsborg, obtaining her provisional teacher’s certificate.

Marjorie was united in marriage to Loren “Dean” Walthers on August 26th, 1951, at the Cuba Presbyterian Church. Following her wedding, Marjorie taught in the Cuba grade school for a few years, and then in 1953, daughter Debra was born, and Marjorie chose to stay home and be a Mom and help Dean build the family business, and then in 1955, son David was born.

Marjorie was Dean’s right hand at Walther’s Oil, where she worked by Dean’s side and together they built a strong family business, enjoying working together each day. Marjorie and Dean made their family, their company, and Cuba their life. They lived in the same home their entire married lives, which kept changing to meet the needs of their growing family, and to entertain family and friends. 

Marjorie was also very involved in numerous community groups and organizations including Eastern Star, Guild, and SOMA (Senior Oil Marketers Association). She was a lifetime member of the Cuba Presbyterian Church. She loved being around family and friends and would always go the extra mile to make everyone feel special. One of her favorite holidays was Easter. She enjoyed being able to provide whatever was necessary to see those around her happy. She didn’t know a stranger or a stray cat that happened to show up at her door. (They knew this would be a good home). She always had room in her heart for them.

Marjorie passed away peacefully at her home on May 31, 2021, at the age of 88 years, 10 months, and 8 days. She is preceded in death by her parents, husband Dean in 2013, sister Violet Garwood, and brother-in-laws Harry “Jim” Garwood and Charles Lang.

Left to cherish her memories are her daughter Debra Ann Beems and her husband Dave of Concordia, son David Dean Walthers and his wife Gloria of Cuba, sister Shirley Lang of Salina, step-grandchildren Jeremy Beems and his children Landon and Laikyn of Ottawa, and Jill Billinger and her husband Joe and their children Zack, Dylan and Garret of Hays, other family, and many friends.

Memorial services will be held at the Presbyterian Church in Cuba on Friday, June 11, 2021, at 11:00 a.m., with Pastor Phil Goombi officiating, and eulogies provided by Randy Paugh and Judy Keller. Committal services will follow at National Bohemian Cemetery #13, rural Cuba. A luncheon will be served at the community hall.

The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth me beside still waters.

He restoreth my soul. He leadeth me in the paths of the righteousness for His name’s sake.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil: my cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

together in Smith Center. They were blessed with three Sons, Michael 
Allen in 1959, Jay Morse in 1961 and Douglass Keith in 1962.
 Morse worked his entire life for Boogarts Grocery business at the 
company’s Mini-Max warehouse and bakery in Smith Center. He started in 
the bakery and finished as the facility manager, produce and frozen 
foods buyer. 
 The company became Scrivner-Boogarts and finally just Scrivner. 
 As the company grew, so did his list of accomplishments. He was 
almost always the top produce division in the company. He won trophies 
which were nearly taller than him. But he truly enjoyed some of the 
trips, such as a week in Venice, Italy with Lucille and other winners in
 the early 1980s. He also enjoyed deep sea fishing on trips to Florida.
 While he was very successful in business, Morse was always called to
 volunteer and help in Smith Center. When a need for a second Cookie 
baseball team arose, he volunteered and coached the 13-15-year-olds 
before his own boys were in school. He later coached the Jaycee Peewee 
baseball team, which later became the Smith County State Bank &amp; 
Trust team for many years. He coached his own three boys for four years 
and then stayed on to coach local children for another 11 years.
 Morse was very active in the Jaycees for years, serving as a Jaycee 
Northwest Regional, Vice President, along with many other state offices.
 During this time period, the Jaycees sponsored the youth baseball team,
 dances and rebuilt and held car racing at the Fair Grounds in Smith 
Center. 
 Family activities filled his life. He led the local Boy Scouts of 
America Troop 102 for several years. He was very proud of his Scouts 
work for charities and for their learning proper flag etiquette. Several
 of the Boys Scouts went on to earn their Eagle Scouts awards. 
 As his sons started middle school and high school sports, Morse 
rekindled his love for football. He was added to the chain gang as Mike 
started high school, but he waited until after Doug’s final game to get 
really involved. He worked the chains at all varsity home games for many
 years. He also started hosting a watermelon feed each school year for 
the football team after two-a-day practices ended. In the beginning it 
was a donation from the company, but after he left the company, he 
continued to provide the watermelons for many more years. It grew from 
football players to all fall sports participants. The watermelon feed 
and his years of service on the chain crew ended when his good friend, 
legendary Redmen football head coach Roger Barta retired.
 Morse’s other sporting passion was for any team from Kansas State 
University. He and Lucille loved attending football games in Manhattan 
and had season tickets for more than 20 years.
 Morse graduated from Phillipsburg High School in 1952. He was a 
three sport-letter winner for the Panthers. He attended Kansas State 
University for two years before he was drafted into the U.S. Army and 
served in Georgia and Arizona from 1957 to 1959.
 He joined the American Lutheran Church in Smith Center at age 50 and enjoyed many years of worship and fellowship there.
 He is survived by his wife Lucille of the home, Sons Michael 
(Dorothy) of Augusta, Kansas, Jay (Kathy) of Overland Park and Doug 
(Merrie) of Hays. Grandchildren include Jay D. (Brooke) of Claremore, 
Okla., David (Rachel) of Hoyt, Cassandra (William) Tripoli, of Rostraver
 Township, Penn., Dannie, of Smith Center, Kris (Mallory) of Salina, and 
Tim (fiancé Kelly Burkhart) of Overland Park. Eight great-grandchildren,
 Brea, Avonelle, Martel and Victoria of Claremore, Okla., and Taylor, 
Claire, and Myles, of Hoyt and Madison of Salina. He is also survived by
 a sister, Norma of Greenville, S.C. and several nieces and nephews.
 He was preceded in death by his parents and three siblings, Shirley, Ronnie, and Gary.
