KIPP -&nbsp;Harry Stanley "Stan" Koglerlost his battle with bullous pemphigoid on July 26, 2020. He passed peacefully, surrounded by family. He was a devoted husband, father, dad, grandfather, great-grandfather, neighbor and friend to all who knew him. Stan lived his entire 83 years in the Kipp area and was a self-taught country electrician, plumber and farmer. As a youngster his fondest memories were playing baseball and basketball with Don Johnson and Gerald Swanson, riding horseback to school with George Currie and drag racing with Charlie Waddle. At the young age of 22 he married Joan Totten Seim after she lost her husband and his best friend Gale Seim. Stan helped raise and adopted her two children Larry Kogler Seim and Pam Kogler Seim Beardmore. The couple had a third child Duane Kogler.

If you ever had an electrical or plumbing issue and lived in the country and within a 50-mile radius of Kipp, Stan probably helped you fix it. As a "jack of all trades" Stan was the last of a dying breed. He was also a grain farmer, often helped by nephew Ron in the later years. Stan was an avid hunter of game birds on the home place. But one of his biggest highlights was shooting and dressing a record 7-point bull elk in Colorado where he and Joan would go hunting every October. The trophy still hangs in his home office.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Harry and Lucille; sister, Darlene.

He is survived by his wife, Joan; son, Larry and wife Laura, their children Michael and Meredith; daughter, Pam and husband Dave, their children, Allison, Madison, Emily; son, Duane and wife Karen, their children, Matthew, Daniel and Katie; great-grandchildren, Charli, Kimbal, Sloane; brother, Marvin and wife Anabelle; sister: Carolyn.

Service will be streamed live at&nbsp;<a href="http://www.triumc.org/stan-kogler" target="_blank">www.triumc.org/stan-kogler</a>&nbsp;on Thursday, July 30 at 11 a.m. A memorial celebration will be held at a later date. Burial will be in Gypsum Valley Cemetery in Gypsum, Kansas.

Memorials may be made to Trinity United Methodist Church and are in care of Ryan Mortuary, 137 North Eighth Street, Salina, Kansas 67401.

Richard “Dick” Lee Swenson, age 70 of Concordia, Kansas died Sunday, July 26, 2020 at Madonna Rehabilitation Hospital in Omaha, Nebraska. Dick was born on October 14, 1949 in Concordia, Kansas to Emil and Helen Margaret (Benson) Swenson. Dick was baptized on Feb. 21, 1960 and grew up in the Concordia Baptist Church. He attended Sibley School (one-room school) through the eighth grade and graduated from Concordia High School in 1967. Dick then graduated from Cloud County Community College in 1969, and in 1971, he received a bachelor’s degree in Animal Science and Industry from Kansas State University. Following graduation, he began a 40-year career working for Moorman Feed/ADM in several communities and became a district manager in Iowa before moving to Marysville, Kanas to be closer to the family farm. While in Marysville, he met the love of his life, Denise.

In April of 1977, Dick moved to Concordia, Kansas to begin farming. He was confirmed in the Lutheran faith at Mt. Calvary Lutheran Church and married Denise Duensing on July 30, 1977 in Marysville, Kansas. They were blessed with three sons: Ryan (1980), Kevin (1984), and Benjamin (1988). As a father, he instilled in his children a strong faith in God and the love of God’s creation. Dick farmed for 43 years and continued developing the Swenson family’s Registered Horned Hereford cattle – receiving the Breeder of the Year award from the Kansas Hereford Association in 2012.

In 2015, Dick, Denise, and Ryan purchased Duis Meat Processing in Concordia and Smoky River Meats in Salina. In 2019, Dick and Denise were nominated and were received into the annual Master Farmer/Master Farm Homemaker class at Kansas State University. Dick loved his family deeply. As a father, he never missed school events, games, or 4-H activities. Nothing stood between Dick and a K-State game – he made sure to pass his love for K-State sports on to everyone in his family. He was also the world’s best grandpa to three grandsons.

Dick was preceded in death by his parents and father-in-law, Melvin Duensing.

Rocky Pfeifer, 61, loving husband, father, and Papa, passed away unexpectedly at his home Monday, July 20th, 2020. Rocky, a Hays native, was born to Rudy and Irma (Befort) Pfeifer in November of 1958. He spent most of his childhood living in Hays and Russell where he enjoyed all the freedoms of small-town living. As Rocky entered high school, his family moved to Salina where he joined the South High football and track team. Prior to graduation, his family made a move to Osborne which is where he finished out his senior year. For a few years after graduation, Rocky stayed in Osborne to help with the family restaurant, but he eventually came back to Salina to build a life of his own. It was then that he started working in food service management but transitioned to retail management when he joined the Kmart team. In 1997 he married the love of his life, Andrea. Five years later they decided it was time to make a change, so they purchased a retail business of their own, which he happily ran for the past eighteen years.

Rocky was hard working and extremely personable. It did not matter how young or how old a person was, if he had just met you or if he had seen you one hundred times, he was always able to find a way to relate and connect. With that being the case, it was not a surprise that people always gathered around him or that a quick trip to anywhere would end up being a not so quick trip. Although he did not have much free time, what time he did have he loved spending it with family.

Rocky was preceded in death by both of his parents. He was survived by his wife Andrea Pfeifer, five children - Brock Pfeifer (wife Bere), Chris Pfeifer, Ashli Taylor (husband Zack), Jamie Pfeifer, Ridge Saldibar, and eight grandchildren - Karady, Katie, Bayli, Gabe, Parker, Haemish, Myles, and Esmeralda. He leaves behind three brothers - Butch Pfeifer (wife Kelly), Rick Pfeifer (wife Missi), Dan Pfeifer (wife Athena), and two sisters - Roxanne Becker (husband Mike), Rebecca Nichols. He also leaves behind several aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, and nephews.

"There are darknesses in life and there are lights, and you are one of the lights, the light of all lights." - Bram Stoker, Dracula
