Richard William Burnett July 1, 1943 ~ April 20, 2024

Richard William Burnett, 80, of Salina, KS, passed away on Saturday, April 20, 2024.

Richard was born in Passaic, NJ on July 1, 1943 to William P. Burnett and Catherine E. Burnett (Bistritz). After graduating from Don Bosco Prep in Ramsey, NJ, Richard attended Bard College in Annandale-on-Hudson, NY, and received his Bachelor of Arts in 1965. Soon after, he served in the U.S. Army, stationed in Germany. He returned to the U.S., honorably discharged, and began a 52-year career in social work. While working for the Jewish Board of Family and Children’s Services in New York, NY, Richard received his Master of Science in Social Work from Columbia University in 1972.

Richard left the East Coast for landlocked Salina, KS in 1975 after accepting the role of Vice President of Clinical Services at St. Francis Academy. He worked at St. Francis for nearly twenty years. While at St. Francis, Richard met and fell in love with the farmer’s daughter of his dreams, Donna Cooprider. Richard was now permanently a Kansan.

Richard and Donna were married on September 15, 1984, at Christ Cathedral in Salina surrounded by friends and family from near and far. Together they raised two children, Deidre Elizabeth Knight (Burnett) and Payson Cooprider Burnett.

The positive impact Richard imparted on the lives of many can be felt through the communities he served as a Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker in Salina and Junction City, KS. Richard and Donna opened Family Care Center of Junction City in 1993 while Richard continued to serve clients in Salina at Veridian Behavioral Health Services (formerly Counseling and Growth). Richard never retired from Family Care Center as he never felt his work was “work” a day in his life.

Richard was preceded in death by his parents, oldest brother William and sister-in-law Marge. Richard is survived by his wife Donna, brother Robert (fiance Betty) of Lyndhurst, NJ, sister-in-law Blanca of St. Pete Beach, FL, daughter Deidre Knight (Jesse) of Council Grove, KS, and Payson Burnett (Morgan) of Virginia Beach, VA.

A memorial service for Richard will be held Friday, April 26 at Ryan Mortuary in Salina, KS at 11 AM. Lunch will follow at Salina Country Club.

Leroy A. Adwell October 9, 1932 ~&nbsp;April 22, 2024

Leroy A. Adwell, 91, of Lindsborg, KS, peacefully passed away on Monday, April 22, 2024, at Bethany Home in Lindsborg.

Leroy was born on October 9, 1932, in rural Ravenwood, MO, the son of Jacob and Dortha (O’Bannon) Adwell.&nbsp; Part of his childhood was in Idaho and then in Oregon where they lived on Roger’s mountain before moving to Portland, Oregon.&nbsp; Moved back to Missouri in 1945, he graduated from high school in Ravenwood, MO.

He was a veteran of the United States Army, with the rank of Platoon Sergeant serving at the end of the Korean War from 1953 to 1955, being part of the Float Bridge Company, placing temporary bridges where permanent bridges had been destroyed in battle.

Leroy moved to Kansas in 1955 and worked for Skelgas, an underground storage facility in Conway.&nbsp; Later it became Texaco, where he worked for 35 years until taking early retirement in 1990.

He was united in marriage on September 8, 1956, to Murla D. Becker at the Presbyterian Chapel in McPherson, KS.&nbsp; To their union were born four children: Patty, Roger, Laura, and Douglas.

Leroy and Murla’s first purchased home in Conway was a story and a half house that they transformed into a ranch style house.&nbsp; He could never just sit and do nothing, was always building something, whether it was a play house, merry-go-round, or a go-cart for us kids.&nbsp; He’d go fishing whenever he got the chance. Then, they decided to move to the country, and they built that house.&nbsp; He decided to get into the hog business.&nbsp; What started out with a few sows, turned into a lot more.

After a time later, he gave up the hogs and changed to buying Holstein calves in Wisconsin where they were bottle fed and then raised up to 300 to 400 lbs before being sold&nbsp; In 1984, they sold the farm and moved to Lindsborg, where again they remodeled a 2 ½ story house.&nbsp; Dad enjoyed keeping busy building furniture and crafts that they sold at craft shows.&nbsp; Also, he loved being with family, gardening, raising pigeons, doves, and chickens.

Leroy was preceded in death by his parents, his brother, Gary Adwell, and sister, Mary Lou Sledge.

Leroy is survived by his wife, Mural Adwell of Lindsborg, KS; four children, Patty Turnquist (Bryce) of Lindsborg, KS, Roger Adwell (Melody) of Chanute, KS, Laura Johannsen (Richard) of Lindsborg, KS, and Douglas Adwell (Linda) of Valley Center, KS; a sister, Shirley Coffelt of Maryville, MO; 11 grandchildren and 15 great-grandchildren; and several nieces and nephews.

A private family service will be held at a later date.&nbsp; The final resting place will be in Elmwood Cemetery, Lindsborg.

Memorial donations can be made to Bethany Home in care of Stockham Family Funeral Home, 205 North Chestnut, McPherson, KS 67460.

Linda Kay (McMurdo) Pfeiffer December 23, 1961 ~ April 19, 2024

Linda Kay Pfeiffer, beloved wife, daughter, sister, and friend, passed away on April 19, 2024, in Salina, Kansas. She was born on December 23,1961, to Roscoe and Carol McMurdo. Linda’s departure has left a void in the lives of all who knew her, but her memory will forever remain in the hearts of those she touched.

In 1986, Linda exchanged vows with her beloved husband, Mark L. Pfieffer at the Little White Chapel in Las Vegas, Nevada. Their union was a testament to their love and commitment to each other, creating a bond that would withstand the tests of time.

Linda’s journey through life was marked by her dedication to her work and her unwavering spirit. She began her career at the front desk of the Salina Journal, where she exhibited professionalism and a strong work ethic. In 1999, she rose to the position of Pre-Press Supervisor, showcasing her leadership skills and attention to detail. In her final years, she worked at CherryRoads out of Hutchinson, Kansas as a Pre-Press Productions expert, leaving a lasting impact on her colleagues and the industry.

Outside of her professional life, Linda found solace and joy in her hobbies and interests. She had a passion for crocheting, creating beautiful pieces that reflected her creativity and talent. Additionally, she cherished her visits to Branson, Missouri, where she delighted in watching musical shows and exploring the sights of the area. These experiences brought her immense happiness and allowed her to unwind from the demands of daily life.

Linda is survived by her husband, Mark, her brothers, Bob (Debbie) Doug (Ami), and Ron (Jennifer), as well as her nieces and nephews, who meant the world to her. Their love and support sustained Linda through life’s challenges and brought her moments of joy and laughter.

A celebration of life to honor Linda, will be held at 2 p.m., Saturday, April 27, at Ryan Mortuary, 137 N 8th, St., Salina, KS. Mark suggests donations be made to Gentiva Hospice or the Tammy Walker Cancer Center of Salina, two organizations that were close to Linda’s heart.

Linda Kay Pfieffer will be remembered for her kindness, warmth, and unwavering love for her family and friends. Her legacy lives on in the memories shared by those who were fortunate enough to know her. May she rest in peace, knowing she was deeply loved and will be sorely missed.

Edith Marlene Garrabrant June 16, 1931 ~ April 9, 2024

Edith Marlene Garrabrant&nbsp;was born on June 16, 1931 in Salina, Kansas to Edith A. and Harold W. Johnson. She was raised in Kansas and was always proud of her Swedish heritage and home state. She loved sunflowers.

As a teenager Marlene enjoyed working summers at Green Mountain Ranch in Rocky Mountain National Park.&nbsp; While she was working in Denver she met Fred Garrabrant (who was in the Air Force at Lowry) and they married on November 15, 1953.

They moved to Fred’s hometown in New Jersey and lived there raising Duane and Lynn. Marlene was in personnel for the Department of the Navy. Fred was a police officer in the town they lived in, Tinton Falls. The family went on many fun camping trips in the northeast and in Colorado as well. The trips west always included a stop in Salina to see Marlene’s mother Edith and brother Stanley.

After their children finished college in Colorado, Marlene and Fred finally returned to Denver. Marlene worked in administration for the Air Force at Martin Marietta in Littleton. Eventually they moved to Estes Park. They loved the beauty and peacefulness of Estes. They enjoyed the elk and deer in their yard (but Fred had to build fences to protect the flowers and trees).

Marlene was a kind and thoughtful person who was a good friend, neighbor, and relative.&nbsp; She enjoyed attending the many reunions of her Swedish cousins. She enjoyed quilting, sewing, embroidery, crocheting, and knitting. She commented once she didn’t know how she had time for all that.

In their retirement Marlene and Fred traveled around the country and especially enjoyed going to Hawaii. They also enjoyed being close to their son Duane and his wife Jean and not too far from daughter Lynn, husband Peter, and granddaughter Leah in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

After Fred passed away 3 years ago, Marlene moved to Santa Fe to an assisted living facility. Lynn visited almost every day. Marlene was an excellent person, wife, and supportive mother and will be dearly missed.&nbsp; Rest in peace Mom.

A funeral service will be held at 10 a.m. Friday April 19, 2024 at Salemsborg Lutheran Church, Smolan.&nbsp; Burial will follow in Salemsborg Lutheran Cemetery.&nbsp;
