Marilyn Joyce Koehler December 19, 1937 ~ March 20, 2024

Marilyn Koehler, 86, passed away on March 20, 2024 at home in Marion, Kansas. She was a teacher and servant of Jesus Christ who touched many lives with her wisdom, kindness, and faith.

She was born December 19, 1937 in Plano, Iowa to Herbert and Cloe Joiner. Marilyn was a life-long learner who loved to teach others. She graduated from Seymour High in 1955, then married David four months later on September 25th. She learned to be a farm wife to David and mother to Darrell, Duane, and Deanna, and taught Sunday School. Her heart for teaching eventually led her back to school. She attended Indian Hills Community College and earned her teaching credentials from Northwest Missouri State University. She became a teacher at Bloomfield, Iowa, and continued to pursue her own education. She eventually earned a Master’s Degree in administration at Drake University, and later a Doctorate. But even as Dr. Koehler, she was the same humble learner with a servant’s heart. Her favorite stories to tell were of students that she taught over her 34-year career in education.&nbsp;After Bloomfield, she became the Superintendent of Moulton-Udell, where she led the passage of a bond levy to build a new elementary school. She served as Principal in Garner, Iowa for six years, then as Principal in Kirksville, Missouri for twelve years, where she helped secure another successful bond levy.

After retirement in 2007, Marilyn poured herself into serving at her local church. She completed a pastoral training program and was ordained by the Church of the Brethren in 2013. Her heart was to serve her Lord Jesus and use the gifts she was given to teach and mentor others. Marilyn and David began spending winters in Marion Kansas, then eventually moved there year-round. They loved spending time with family and friends, and especially with their grandkids: Erik (Claudia) and Tyler (Katrina) Brinegar; Matt, Connor, and Kaelyn Thierolf; Jason (Alana), Andrew, and Stephanie Chau; and Lindsey, Joshua, and Joel Koehler. Marilyn also has six great-grandchildren: Callum and Rowan Brinegar; Robin and Graham Brinegar; and Aubrey and Chloe Chau. Her beloved husband David passed into eternity in March of 2021. Marilyn is survived by her children Darrell (Cindy) Koehler, Duane (Deanna) Koehler, Deanna (Grant) Thierolf, and Norman (Gail) Chau. She was preceded in death by her parents and her brothers Roscoe, Richard, and Royce, and her sisters Carol and Pauline.

Services will be held at Fairview Church of the Brethren, 18140 Highway T61, Unionville, Iowa at 2 pm on Friday, March 29th. &nbsp; A time of visitation with family and refreshments will follow the service in the fellowship hall. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Fairview Church of the Brethren, Holt International, or Indian Hills Community College Foundation scholarship fund. Yazel Megli Funeral Home is serving the family. Please sign her online guestbook and leave a memory of Marilyn at&nbsp;<a href="http://www.yazelmeglifh.com/">www.yazelmeglifh.com</a>

Doug attended Salina Catholic schools and then South Middle School. He then moved to Norfolk, Nebraska, with his family, where he started his sophomore year. He attended Norfolk Senior High, graduating in 1989.

Equally, at home, behind the wheel, or wielding a spatula, Doug's love for cooking was as boundless as his love for his family. His kitchen was a place of warmth and laughter, wherein he delighted in preparing delicious meals for those he held dear.

Survivors include his son,&nbsp;Colyn O’Connor, of Manhattan, Kansas; sister, Cyndy O’Connor, of Hutchinson, Kansas; three brothers, two of whom are in Salina, Kansas: Eddie O’Connor (Rachelle), Trey Hanchett (Lois);&nbsp;and Matthew O’Connor (Tiffany) of Assaria, Kansas. Also, his best friend and former wife of 29 years, Cindy O’Connor, of Salina, Kansas, and numerous nieces and nephews.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Wilford and Marlene O’Connor, sister, Kathryn Hanchett, and nephew, Charlie Kohles.

A visitation will be at Ryan&nbsp;Mortuary, 137 N 8th, St., Salina, Kansas, on Saturday, April 27, 2024, from 1-3 pm.

Please make memorials, in lieu of flowers, to Colyn O’Connor, to assist in finishing his Masters in Athletic Training, at K-State Manhattan.&nbsp;

Don L. Bishop August 27, 1930 ~&nbsp;March 14, 2024

Don Bishop, 93, of Salina, passed away peacefully surrounded by his family on Thursday March 14, 2024. He will always be known as a friend and mentor to everyone he met. Don was born on Aug 27, 1930, and raised in Gypsum, KS to Bertha C. (Glen Holcomb) and Wallace L. Bishop. He was a graduate of Gypsum High School in the class of 1950. Don joined the Navy in 1951 and was in the Construction Battalions Seabees. He was honorably discharged in 1953 after receiving the National Defense Service, Korean Service, United Nations Service, and Good Conduct Medals. He married the love of his life Kay (Kellams) Bishop in 1958 and had three loving sons.

His parents preceded him in death, as well as by his wife Kay (Kellams) Bishop, and sister and brother-in-law Carolyn and Jim Robinett, and his sister-in-law Veryl (Kellams) Leach. He is survived by his sons Don Bishop II, of Salina, Tom Bishop (Rena), of Salina, and Jim Bishop (Leslie), of Salina; his eight grandchildren, Jo Ann, Matthew, Scott, Donald, Steven, Nicole, Ashlee, and Evan, ten great-grandchildren, six nephews, five nieces; and numerous other extended family members.&nbsp;

Don worked in the aircraft industry, living in Wichita, Denver, CO, Ft. Worth, TX, and St. Charles, MO. He then moved into the motorcycle industry, working at a couple of dealerships in the area. Don and his family moved back to Salina in 1973. He opened Don's Motorcycle Service and Accessories, then Don's Suzuki. He spent more than 50 years in the motorcycle industry. Don also worked at Tony’s Pizza Service in the Maintenance Dept, retiring after 15 years there. He was one of the founding fathers of the Golden Eagles Motorcycle Club, and the annual Salina Toy Run. He was Lifetime member of The Retreads Motorcycle Club International and the America Motorcycle Association. Don also spent summers at Northern Tier High Adventure camp in MN repairing canoes and maintenance at the camp.

Don’s favorite past times were touring the U.S.A. on his motorcycles, watching NASCAR, K-State and KC Chiefs football, guns, and spending time with those he loved. His love of ketchup could rival Patrick Mahomes. A man who inspired the families’ love of motorcycles. If he could have been a NASCAR driver he would have asked for Dr. Pepper,&nbsp; Burger King, and Hershey’s Chocolate Syrup, to sponsor him. We will dearly miss our&nbsp; gun toting John Wayne.

Cremation has taken place. A memorial service will be held at 10a.m. Thursday, Apr. 4th at Ryan’s Mortuary, Salina, luncheon to follow. A private burial will follow at Gypsum Hill Cemetery for the family and close friends. In lieu of flowers, please send memorials to American Diabetes Association or the American Heart Association.

Shirley Jeanne Gilmore February 8, 1953 ~ February 5, 2024

The angels came for Shirley, who passed away on February 5, 2024, at the family home surrounded by her friend and caregiver, Bessie Rhodes, as well as her family of four — Emily, Molly, Artie and Sandy.

Shirley began her lifetime residency in Salina on February 8, 1953, to her parents, Pauline and Edward Gilmore. A common thread in Shirley's personality was her love of animals. 

The smile on Shirley's face, shown in the picture, is the light in the window that tells people Shirley, Emily and Molly are taking their long walk across the Rainbow Bridge with Sandy and Artie not far behind.

Ronald Joseph Nold September 28, 1940 ~ March 18, 2024

R. Joe Nold Sr., longtime resident of Abilene, passed away on March 18, 2024 in Wichita. Joe was born on September 28, 1940 in St. Joseph, Missouri, the oldest of four sons born to Thomas E. and Carrie Fern (Welch) Nold. The family made their permanent home in Abilene when Joe was quite young. He attended Abilene schools from kindergarten through high school. Joe earned his BS degree from Fort Hays College. Education was important to him, but we know he also enjoyed extracurricular activities. One of his favorite movies was Animal House – he swears the movie was based on his fraternity experience. But his most cherished memory of Fort Hays was meeting and wooing his wife, June Clydesdale Nold. They married in the summer of 1963 – between Joe’s graduation and induction into the United States Army. Joe served in the 101st Airborne division. He volunteered for paratrooper training – not for the thrill, but because the extra “jump pay” allowed him to support June and daughter, Jill. Joe’s first job after serving his country was as an Executive with the Boy Scouts of America. He was passionate about scouting – as a Scout, as an employee, and as a troop leader with his sons, Jeff and Joe Jr. In 1968 Joe landed the job that married his degree in Industrial Arts, his love of scouting and camping, and his appreciation of corporate America – working for The Coleman Company. He rose from shop foreman to Vice President of Manufacturing to President of Coleman International. With each promotion came another location – Wichita to Somerset, PA, back to Wichita, to Oceanside and El Cajon, CA, back to Wichita, Golden, CO, and Kearney, NE. In 1998 June said ENOUGH and they retired to Abilene, building their dream home on Red Bud Lake. A lifelong woodworker, Joe now had time to craft more furniture, buy more tools, and build more porches and decks on their house. But retirement didn’t suit Joe, so he campaigned and was elected as a Dickinson County Commissioner for two terms. In further service to his community, Joe was a founding member of the Community Foundation of Dickinson County, a CASA volunteer, a member of the Kiwanis Club, the Elk’s Lodge, the Audubon Society and served in many roles as a member of the First United Methodist Church. In 2020, Joe relocated once again to Wichita so that he could provide care and comfort to June at Regent Park Assisted Living. Joe is survived by his wife, June; daughter Jill and Tom Cantonwine; son Jeff and Laura Nold, son Joe Jr. and Sarah Nold, grandchildren Jordan, Tanner, Griffin, and Caitlin Cantonwine, Connor and Sarah Nold, and Lily and Thomas Nold, sister-in-law Judy Nold, and numerous nieces and nephews. Joe is preceded in death by his parents, and brothers Bob, Mike, and Tom Jr. Memorial service to be held at First United Methodist Church, 601 North Cedar, Abilene, Kansas 67410 on Saturday, April 6, 2024. Family visitation at 10:00 am, memorial service at 11:00 am. The family thanks the staff of Regent Park, Ascension Via Christi St. Francis and Harry Hynes Hospice for their kind care of our dad and grandfather. In lieu of flowers, consider contributing to the Fort Hays State Foundation, where Joe and June established a scholarship benefitting the institution that brought education and love to their lives. https://fhsu.edu/foundation ("Joe and June Nold Scholarship" in the Area of Designation)

Vance Ryan McComber November 28, 2006 ~ March 15, 2024

It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of&nbsp;Vance Ryan McComber, 17, who left us far too soon on March 15, 2024.&nbsp; He was a cherished and beloved son, brother, grandson, uncle, and friend.

He was raised in Salina and attended Salina public schools through his Junior year in high school at Salina Central.&nbsp; While in high school he lived and breathed football and his teammates quickly became a second family to him.&nbsp; His commitment carried over to the off season where he found a love and dedication for weightlifting and fitness.&nbsp; Through this he would end up inspiring many family members and friends to lead a healthier lifestyle.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Vance was a talented auto mechanic who had a passion for fast loud cars, and he had a knack for fixing anything underneath the hood.&nbsp; He loved being involved with the local car community culture and was passionate about introducing it to anybody and everyone.&nbsp; He could literally talk about cars for hours on end every single day.&nbsp; He also enjoyed fishing, playing video games, listening to music, and just hanging out with his friends.

Vance will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all who had the pleasure of knowing him.&nbsp; His smile and laughter were contagious, and he had a very loving and kind soul.&nbsp; Vance was a best friend to many.&nbsp;

Survived by his mom Kristina Rowland, stepfather Eric Rowland; sister Avery McComber, stepsiblings, Tyler Rowland, Hayden Rowland, Hannah McCubbin (Rowland); father Thomas McComber, stepmother Arianna Camarena; half-siblings Kynlee McComber, Briggs McComber, Brooke Dunn; grandparents Marilyn McComber, Linda McGill, Tarri Rowland, Charles Rowland, Betty Hueser.

During the following 30 years Paul vowed to make up for all the responsibly she had assumed and pampered her for all his remaining years. He passed away in 2015.From California to Tennessee, Michigan, Virginia, Kansas and beyond Peggy enjoyed being a Navy wife.&nbsp; She considered every move an opportunity to become part of another community, decorate a new home and visit different areas of the country. She became so accustomed to relocating that she and Paul moved three times in Lawrence alone.Over the years she was employed at various offices.&nbsp; Her favorite occupation was being an at home mom to her three children for 20 years.&nbsp; Whatever the need in the classroom, her offspring were the first to raise their hand and proclaim, “My mom can do it.”&nbsp; All three had an unwavering conviction in her creativity, abilities and patience.After Peggy’s children were older, she became an administrative assistant at the Institute for Learning Disabilities at The University of Kansas.&nbsp; She enjoyed her almost 20 years working with wonderful people, many becoming lifelong friends.Born and raised in the “Show Me” state.
