Rosalee Jeanette Lander Larson passed away on June 14th, 2020. She was born on February 19, 1924 on the family farm in Salina, Kansas to Sten and Alma Lander. 

Growing up on a farm she was surrounded by animals including Great Danes, cows, chickens and the family horse, Billy. 

She was the second of 3 children and had an older sister, Lucille Forsberg and younger brother, Wayne Lander. 

She had many memories of farm life and it was an idyllic childhood filled with fun and hard work. 

She went on to college at Kansas Wesleyan and was active in theatre and all sorts of social clubs. During her sophomore year she was crowned the May Queen. 

World War II interrupted her education and she obtained an emergency teaching certificate and taught 1st through 8th grade in one room schoolhouse for one year. 

It was a time of great patriotism and Rosalee joined the women's division of the US Navy as a Wave. After her training at Hunter College in New York City she was assigned to a base near Savanah, Georgia where she helped teach young naval recruits to fly aircraft using a land-based auto trainer. She was proud to go to Washington, D.C. where one of the auto trainers was permanently placed in the Smithsonian Institution. 

After the war ended, she obtained a B.A. in English from Marymount College. After graduating, she went to a radio performance school in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. She hosted a series of radio shows in Western Kansas. 

She met Ralph Larson on a blind date at a picnic on Coronado Heights and they married and moved to Topeka Kansas where Ralph began his law practice. She worked at the Menninger Foundation before starting a family. 

She had 5 children, Laird, Theresa, Ingeborg, Christopher and Robin Todd. She was a fun mother who loved her family and spent many fond hours entertaining the children with things like art, sewing and many outdoor adventures. She was the Girl Scout leader for Ingeborg and Theresa and all the Briarwood girls. 

She later went to work in the Nursing Service Division at St Francis Hospital in Topeka. After retirement she lived in her home on Jewell street for many years, and recently went to live with her son, Laird in Lindsborg, Kansas.

&nbsp; As a member of the Greatest Generation she lived through the Dust Bowl, the Great Depression and World War II, all of which help to shape her fine character. 

Rosalee was a beautiful woman inside and out, who maintained a gracious home, loved literature and family vacations, but most of all her precious children. She is survived by her son Laird Larson of Lindsborg, Kansas, her daughter Theresa Larson of Kansas City, Missouri and several nieces and nephews.

She brought so much joy and love into the world and will be deeply missed. 

Cremation has been chosen and funeral services are pending at this time.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Mr. Nino Samuel, 67, of Covington, Georgia transitioned to rest Wednesday, June 17, 2020.

Nino Samuel was born in Bronx, New York, to the late Mrs. Sylvia Victoria Samuel and Mr. Rehelio Alphonso Samuel, on January 9, 1953.

Nino Samuel traveled frequently, due to his father being in the military for over 20 years. He eventually landed in Salina, Kansas, where he played on the basketball team at Salina High School. He quickly became a legend and an opponent to be reckoned with. Nino Samuel was a High School All-American and signed with the University of Kansas, but he eventually transferred to Marymount College in Salina, where he earned his Bachelor of Science in Sociology. He was extremely proud of the fact that he graduated on time, despite his dyslexia. He coached at the high school, AAU, college, and professional levels before earning his personal training certificate in 1996. He worked for the State of Nevada for 10 years, working with mentally and physically disabled kids. He was inducted into the Kansas Basketball Coaches Hall of Fame in 1987 and in the inaugural Salina Central Athletic Hall of Fame, class in 2019.

Nino and Tressie were high school sweethearts. They got married in May of 1972. They were married for 48 years and had two beautiful children, Nino Alphonso Samuel, Jr., and Iris Irene Samuel. They moved to Georgia in 1992. Nino has spent the last 30 years as the owner and CEO of “Nino Samuel Basketball Training” in the metro Atlanta area. Through his laughter, trials, tribulations, and celebration, he always loved his family and made them a priority in his life. Nino Samuel was a loving husband, father, brother, grandfather, and friend. He will be remembered for being larger than life and a kid at heart, despite everything thrown his way. His ability to brighten up someone’s day will always be remembered as one of his greatest assets. He was charismatic and selfless; he had a gift for helping people. He loved basketball and his family, but what really made him flourish and thrive was working with people, especially kids.

He is preceded in death by his mother and father; sister, Sylvia Hoss; and brother, Joseph Samuel.

Nino is survived by his wife of 48 years, Tressie Samuel; son, Nino Samuel, Jr.; daughter, Iris Samuel; 13 grandchildren; sister, Renita Samuel; two brothers, Albert and Frederico Samuel; and a host of nieces, nephews, relatives, and friends.
