Mary Aron, née Lilly, passed away 23 April. Born 23 June 1940, third of 13 kids, as an older sibling growing up she developed the personality traits she's been recognized for throughout her life - compassion, caring, generosity, and being an absolute assassin while competing at family board games. The adventure's next phase started after marrying her high school sweetheart Bill. The life of a military family is never boring, and Mary had her two children Shai and Kenny while moving around the world for almost twenty years. "Home is where your mom is" was our philosophy and she made a home of wherever we lived whether it was quarters in Fort Eustis, an apartment in Stuttgart with high-speed police chases, or eventually to a restored farmhouse in Chapman, KS where we graduated high school while dad deployed to Korea. There were many more stops in between but we always had "home," each other, and our eyes on the next adventure. The later Chapman phase added kids-in-law John Trotter (Shai) and Becky Wells (Kenny), and grandkids with Nicole, Jessica, and Jason Beck coming into the family, then not long after Keith and Kenton Aron and Chris and David Garrison. One well-earned retirement later brought the last move to Abilene and added Tommy and Lewis Trotter. After some grands were married (Jessica to Joe Ehrlich, Chris to Kamella, and David to Heather) they started cranking out the great-grands, with the last count around nine of them- Kayleigh, Sean, Piper, Tye, Kenslie, Kimberly, Ellie, Fisher, and Nora. Somehow the lax discipline which Mom showed the grandkids became even laxer with the greats, which none of us considered possible. She maintained a "tub of unlimited sweets" where the little ones knew they could grab a snack cake whenever they wanted; where was this when we kids were growing up? Although she pretended to give equal consideration to KU with her "house divided" propaganda she repeatedly confided in me that was just for show and KSU was the unadulterated recipient of her loyalty. I had to break this news gently to our first Emporia student, Lewis. Mary's heart was forever broken three years ago, almost to the day when Bill passed away. She personally placed flowers on his grave up to the week she passed. The next phase of the adventure begins. Funeral services will be 11:00 a.m., Monday, May 1, 2023 at First Christian Church of Abilene with Pastor Jason Kohler. Burial will follow at the Abilene City Cemetery. Friends may come by Danner Funeral Home on Sunday from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. to sign the register book.

The family suggests memorials be given to the First Christian Church of Abilene. Memorial may be dropped off at the funeral home or mailed to Danner Funeral Home, 501 N. Buckeye, Abilene, Kansas 67410. 

Online condolences may be sent to www.dannerfuneralhome.net.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Born 23 June 1940, third of 13 kids, as an older sibling growing up she developed the personality traits she's been recognized for throughout her life - compassion, caring, generosity, and being an absolute assassin while competing at family board games. The adventure's next phase started after marrying her high school sweetheart Bill. The life of a military family is never boring, and Mary had her two children Shai and Kenny while moving around the world for almost twenty years. "Home is where your mom is" was our philosophy and she made a home of wherever we lived whether it was quarters in Fort Eustis, an apartment in Stuttgart with high-speed police chases, or eventually to a restored farmhouse in Chapman, KS where we graduated high school while dad deployed to Korea. There were many more stops in between but we always had "home," each other, and our eyes on the next adventure.

Larry F. Bills, 78, of Palestine, IL, passed away on April 20, 
2023, at Union Hospital in Terre Haute, IN. Born on July 31, 1944, in 
Salinas, CA, he was the son of Laurence E. &amp; Iona J. (Durham) Bills,
 both of whom preceded him in death. He married Susan (Caraway) on July 
14, 2001, and sadly, Susan passed away on March 15, 2016, leaving an 
indelible impression on Larry's heart. 

Larry's legacy continues with his
 deeply loved and cherished children - Kim &amp; her husband Kenny Koch 
(Camdenton, MO), Brian Bills (Kansas City, KS) &amp; his significant 
other Jessica, Laura &amp; her husband Tony Osborn (Robinson, IL), and 
David &amp; his wife Daphne Conour (Stoughton, WI). Larry's family 
expanded exponentially with numerous adoring grandchildren and 
great-grandchildren. They, as well as his brother, Richard Bills (Platte
 City, MO), survive, as does a host of extended family members.

Larry
 grew up in Salina, KS, where he graduated from high school in 1962. 
Larry continued his education at Kansas State University and shortly 
thereafter began an eclectic and impressive career that took many forms.
 Through the years, Larry's titles included deputy sheriff, construction
 diesel mechanic, carbide grinder, railroad brakeman, and licensed 
realtor. He was even a mechanical and electrical design engineer, 
helping develop conveyors for the big three automakers. Larry's 
exceptional intelligence and keen problem-solving skills led him to his 
final career move as a systems analyst and administrator for Verizon in 
Tulsa, OK, where he ultimately retired.

Just as he 
engaged in a wide range of work, he also pursued a wide range of 
interests and passions. Among them were racing (a young Larry raced his 
own sprint car for years), building and flying radio-controlled 
airplanes, cheering on his beloved Kansas City Chiefs, fishing, and 
studying history. Anyone who knew him recognized that Larry held a 
particular fascination for weather-related phenomena. In a testament to 
his dedication to weather forecasting, he recently collaborated with the
 National Weather Service, which installed an antenna in his backyard. 
This partnership allowed him to upload real-time weather data to their 
systems, contributing to essential monitoring and alert services for his
 community. Larry's engagement with the world didn't end with his 
hobbies. A longtime Shriner, he dedicated many hours to philanthropy and
 community service. Additionally, he held a membership with the Masonic 
Lodge in Overland Park, KS.

Larry's spiritual 
transformation began later in life, and it's clear that his path toward 
faith was nothing short of extraordinary. While he couldn't be dragged 
into church for most of his 78 years, the Holy Spirit used both his 
experiences and time to finally lead him to the doors of the Outer West 
Market Church of Christ in Palestine. He joined the church on October 
31, 2021, and was baptized just months later, on February 27, 2022. As 
Larry's faith grew deeper, so did his capacity to express love to those 
around him. His earlier days may have been characterized by some 
emotional reserve, but the twilight of his life was marked by an 
openness and warmth that was as inspiring as it was touching. Larry's 
newfound relationship with Jesus led him to attend church faithfully, 
even as his health declined. In his final days, it was with great joy 
that Larry found refuge in the arms of his Savior, a faithful and loving
 Shepherd who guided him through every valley in his life.

His
 passing brings with it the powerful testimony of a life touched by 
grace and redeemed by faith, a testament that will live on in the hearts
 and minds of all those who had the privilege to know him. We who are 
left behind grieve our own loss, but not as those without hope. After 
all, we can be thankful for the priceless gift of knowing and loving 
Larry Bills, a man who truly exemplified wisdom, passion, and faith. We 
are confident that, as he walks in the Kingdom of Heaven, his life 
continues as a testament to the transformative power of Jesus Christ.

"As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied when I awake, with thy likeness." - Psalm 17:15

It
 was Larry's wish to be cremated, and the Goodwine Funeral Home in 
Robinson is in charge of these arrangements. In his memory, memorial 
contributions may be made to his church family at "Outer West Market 
Church of Christ."
