Fenton Renwick “Pete” Talbott died unexpectedly of cardiac arrest on Saturday, February 22, 2020 in Greenwich, CT. Born on October 7, 1941, in McPherson, KS to Eldon Isaac Talbott and Laura Helen McKee Talbott.

Raised in McPherson KS, he grew up to be the quintessential success story. In high school he was a leader, scholar and star athlete in four sports, setting state and national records in the javelin and discus. He earned the Stansbury Scholar-Athlete Award for a full scholarship to the University of Kansas. To round out his high school career, he landed the role of Curly in the school’s production of Oklahoma!

In September of 1960, after his first year of college, he married high school sweetheart, Judith Pierson. Within three years, they were young and naïve parents with their first two children. Undeterred by his family responsibilities he went on to receive his MBA in 1965, graduating first in his class. The recipient of the Barrett Fitch North Finance Award and the Beta Gamma Sigma International Business Honor Society Assistantship and Scholarship caught the eye of Ford Motor Company in Detroit which launched his career.

He went on to hold various leadership and executive positions; including roles at Citibank, Citicorp, Bank of America, First Boston, American Express, Comerica and most recently McKeown DeLeeuw. Through work, Pete and Judy moved to cities near and far, forging friendships spanning the globe and lasting a lifetime.

Pete was a passionate sports enthusiast with a special place in his heart for KU basketball. He was an avid golfer, known as much for his eye-catching pants as for his golf swing. And nothing made you feel more special than being serenaded by Pete on your birthday. He laughed big, loved generously and danced at every party. He and Judy, his wife of almost 60 years, never quit doing the twist together.

Pete enjoyed donating his time and talents as a member of the Board of Trustees for the KU Endowment Association, a board member of the KU Alumni Association as well as St. Vincent’s Hospital and Cornerstone’s both of Santa Fe, NM. He believed strongly that time or money spent on education was never wasted.

He is survived by his loving wife Judith Pierson Talbott, adoring children Blaine Charles Talbott (Kate Shanley Talbott, Mary Megan Talbott (John Moench, Caitlin McKee Talbott Tobin (Christopher Tobin, and Bevan Renwick Talbott; beloved grandchildren William and Hannah, Mary Renwick, Bridget and Beatrix, Pierson and Garnet, Teddy and Grant, his sister Sharon Goss (Max Goss, siblings-in-law Merrily Pierson, Susan and Marty Redstone, Kristi and Allen Whorton, Tad Pierson; and all of their children.

A burial and memorial service will be held in his hometown of McPherson, KS at the First United Methodist Church at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday March 7th, 2020 with Reverend Emily Cannon officiating.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations in Pete’s name be sent to: The KU Endowment, PO Box 928, Lawrence, KS, 66044 or Cornerstones Community Partnerships, PO Box 2341, Santa Fe, NM 87504



Fenton Renwick “Pete” Talbott died unexpectedly of cardiac arrest on Saturday, February 22, 2020 in Greenwich, CT. Born on October 7, 1941, in McPherson, KS to Eldon Isaac Talbott and Laura Helen McKee Talbott.Raised in McPherson KS, he grew up to be the quintessential success story. In high school he was a leader, scholar and star athlete in four sports, setting state and national records in the javelin and discus. He earned the Stansbury Scholar-Athlete Award for a full scholarship to the University of Kansas. To round out his high school career, he landed the role of Curly in the school’s production of Oklahoma!In September of 1960, after his first year of college, he married high school sweetheart, Judith Pierson. Within three years, they were young and naïve parents with their first two children. Undeterred by his family responsibilities he went on to receive his MBA in 1965, graduating first in his class. The recipient of the Barrett Fitch North Finance Award and the Beta Gamma Sigma International Business Honor Society Assistantship and Scholarship caught the eye of Ford Motor Company in Detroit which launched his career.He went on to hold various leadership and executive positions; including roles at Citibank, Citicorp, Bank of America, First Boston, American Express, Comerica and most recently McKeown DeLeeuw. Through work, Pete and Judy moved to cities near and far, forging friendships spanning the globe and lasting a lifetime.Pete was a passionate sports enthusiast with a special place in his heart for KU basketball. He was an avid golfer, known as much for his eye-catching pants as for his golf swing. And nothing made you feel more special than being serenaded by Pete on your birthday. He laughed big, loved generously and danced at every party. He and Judy, his wife of almost 60 years, never quit doing the twist together.Pete enjoyed donating his time and talents as a member of the Board of Trustees for the KU Endowment Association, a board member of the KU Alumni Association as well as St. Vincent’s Hospital and Cornerstone’s both of Santa Fe, NM. He believed strongly that time or money spent on education was never wasted.He is survived by his loving wife Judith Pierson Talbott, adoring children Blaine Charles Talbott (Kate Shanley Talbott, Mary Megan Talbott (John Moench, Caitlin McKee Talbott Tobin (Christopher Tobin, and Bevan Renwick Talbott; beloved grandchildren William and Hannah, Mary Renwick, Bridget and Beatrix, Pierson and Garnet, Teddy and Grant, his sister Sharon Goss (Max Goss, siblings-in-law Merrily Pierson, Susan and Marty Redstone, Kristi and Allen Whorton, Tad Pierson; and all of their children.A burial and memorial service will be held in his hometown of McPherson, KS at the First United Methodist Church at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday March 7th, 2020 with Reverend Emily Cannon officiating.In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations in Pete’s name be sent to: The KU Endowment, PO Box 928, Lawrence, KS, 66044 or Cornerstones Community Partnerships, PO Box 2341, Santa Fe, NM 87504

Donald A “Don” Obenland

Doris Janet Chase, 87, of Council Grove, went home to be with The Lord, Wednesday, February 26th, 2020, after a short bout with Leukemia.&nbsp; Doris is survived by a sister, Geneva (Hank) Bast of Cedar Falls, Iowa; a son, Brian (Becky) Chase of Council Grove, Kansas; a daughter, Carla (Robb) Stephenson of Westmoreland, Kansas; 4 grandchildren, Jesse (Deidre) Knight of Council Grove, Kansas; Michael Chase of Lyons, Kansas; Mark (Natasha) Chase of Emporia, Kansas; and Jana (Justin) Phillips of Tribune, Kansas.&nbsp; Doris was also blessed with 6 step-grandchildren, 18 great-grandchildren, and one great-great grandchild. She was preceded in death by her husband, L. Radford “Rack” Chase, and 6 siblings; brothers Junior, Bill, Dick, Bob, and sisters Maxine and Roberta.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Doris was born to John Sherman Blanton and Leora (Parrish) Blanton on September 16, 1932 in Dunlap, Kansas.&nbsp; She lived with her seven siblings and her parents until she married Rack on October 18, 1952.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Doris and Rack travelled the country, residing in California and New Mexico before settling back in Council Grove. They opened several businesses, including:&nbsp; Council Grove Cycle Sales, Chase Liquor, Council Grove Metals, Chase Rentals, Doris’s Creative Quilting, and several other ventures that they enjoyed.&nbsp; Doris was a busy bee, as she was also employed by Fairmont Creamery, SRS of Kansas, Varney’s Bookstore, The Cottage House, and completed many college courses at Butler Community College of Council Grove.&nbsp; Doris and Rack enjoyed many years of good friends and family while living on the Council Grove City Lake; where ever the two of them were, a good time was sure to follow.&nbsp; The memories made during these years have provided many stories, none embellished, over the last several days.

Doris enjoyed being outdoors gardening, taking care of her yard, quilting, genealogy, and nurturing (and spaying) the neighborhood kitties.&nbsp; She had a love for life and never had a bad day, as was evidenced by her daily saying “I always have a good day!”.&nbsp; She was a regular at Silver Sneakers at Council Grove Life Center and frequently enjoyed gambling excursions with good friends.&nbsp; She was an active member of Saint Rose of Lima Catholic Church and spent several years volunteering at the Community Thrift Store.&nbsp;

Doris will be missed by many.&nbsp; In her memory, a memorial contribution can be made to Saint Rose of Lima Catholic Church, in care of Sawyer Funeral Home, PO Box 273, Council Grove, KS 66846.&nbsp; A rosary will be held at 6:30PM on Monday, March 2nd, with visitation to follow.&nbsp; Funeral mass will be held at 10:00AM on Tuesday, March 3rd, with burial to follow at Greenwood&nbsp;Cemetery.&nbsp;
