Dustin A. Petty August 7, 1979 ~ November 2, 2023

Dustin A. Petty, 44, passed away Wednesday, November 2, 2023, in Ellsworth County. He was born August 7, 1979, in Topeka, KS, to Randall Joe and Carman (Flott) Petty. He met Kayla Maze in July of 2014. After enjoying 5 years together, they were united in marriage in Ellsworth on July 5, 2019. 

Dustin had a larger-than-life personality. He put his heart into anything and everything he did. If he set his mind to something, you could be sure it was going to be done big and loud. He was an incredibly proud father and husband and had a heart almost as big as his appetite. 

Dustin would give the shirt off his back to anyone and was a wonderful and dependable friend to so many. He could never be sent to the store if an ingredient was urgently needed as he’d get sidetracked and eventually end up back at home without the item, but instead with 3 camels and a horse that he had somehow managed to barter for with someone who crossed his path! 

He had a passion for Harleys and dreamt of owning one someday. In July, he made his dream a reality and spent many evenings enjoying the open air on his very first one. He also loved hunting, although recently admitted, “Maybe it’s not my thing,” when he continually missed his “lopsided buck,” usually only by minutes, according to his game cams. 

However, he loved the peace and quiet of nature, clearing his head and being still while waiting on the “big one.” To sum him up, Dustin was one of a kind. He had many friends and family whom he loved fiercely and will be painfully missed by everyone he’s touched in his short lifetime. 

Dustin is survived by his wife Kayla of Ellsworth; children, Joseph Petty, Jacob Maze, Brayden Rodriguez, Finley Petty, and Hazel Petty; mother, Carman Allen (James) of Holton, KS; sister Karra Petty (Hannah) of Overland Park, KS; twin brother, Dallas Joe Petty (Melissa) of Leonardville, KS; several nieces and nephews, and a multitude of friends that he considered family. He was preceded in death by his father, Randall. 

A celebration of life service will take place on Saturday, November 11, 2023, at 1 p.m., at High Jinks Rec Club in Ellsworth. 

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions can be made to the Dustin Petty Memorial Fund, c/o, Parsons Funeral Home, PO Box 45, Ellsworth, KS 67439.

Gordon Dale Strunk March 24, 1928 ~ October 27, 2023

Gordon Dale Strunk was born March 24, 1928, south of Abilene, Kansas. He was welcomed into God’s arms, passing away peacefully on October 27, 2023, at home in Talmage, Kansas. 

He spent his boyhood years in the New Basel community, attending rural schools and graduating from Abilene High School in 1946. Upon graduation, Gordon embarked on a lifetime of work centered around agriculture, such as farming and livestock feed sales. 

He was a talented motor grader operator and timber logger, skills he passed on to his sons and grandsons. He retired at age 85. After retirement, he enjoyed listening to the songbirds, watching baseball and rodeo on TV, sitting on the screened porch in the summer, near the wood stove in the winter, frequent visits with neighbors, and daily afternoon refreshments. 

Not much of a traveler, Dickinson County was his world. As long as he could see the prairie’s horizon, that was all the vacation he needed. If you knew Gordon, you heard him sing. He sang every single day! He had a song in his heart and an appropriate one for every occasion, usually old hymns, country western, or American standards. If a song came to mind, he sang it out! 

As Dad to seven, fatherhood came naturally to Gordon. He guided with advice like, “We’ll know more come the 4th of July”, “nothing that a little Sunday School won’t cure”, “Pay Attention!” and often, “Put a smile on your face!” Gordon was preceded in death by his parents, Aaron and Ella, first wife Margaret, infant grandson Christopher Loftus, and his best friend and brother-in-law, Delmar Curran. 

He is survived by DeAnne, his devoted wife of 54 years; his sister Rosella Curran; and his seven children: Kay Hoffman (Bob) of Hope, KS; Tim Strunk of Abilene, KS; Max Strunk of Ft Lauderdale, FL; Sue Krenger (Mike) of Oklahoma City, OK, Jan Sexton (Ted) of Abilene KS, Andy Strunk (Angie) of Abilene KS, and Sara Steppe (Dean) of Wakefield KS. He is also survived by a host of grandchildren and great-grandchildren, cousins, nieces, and nephews. Although Gordon led a simple and modest life, his legacy is rich in kindness, rich in faith, and rich in love. 

A private graveside service is planned for the family. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to Shiloh Ranch Ministries or Hospice of Dickinson County c/o Danner Funeral Home. A celebration of life will Saturday, November 4, from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. at the Talmage Library and Event Center. 

Some glad morning when this life is over, I’ll fly away. To a home on God’s celestial shore, I’ll fly away.

Betty Lee Baker Lemley was born and raised in Minneapolis, Kansas, the eldest of ten siblings.&nbsp; As a grade-schooler, she rode a horse to attend a one-room schoolhouse. She graduated from Minneapolis High School.&nbsp; At the age of 18 she met her perfect partner, C. Burl Lemley, who was stationed at Schilling Air Force Base (formerly Smokey Hill Air Force Base) while he served in the forces during World War II as a Celestial Navigation Trainer.&nbsp; At the time, Betty was a Marymount College freshman and evidently impressed Burl with her captivating dance moves at a school-sponsored dance.&nbsp; 

They married soon after and spent over 50 happy years together. He was always her check-and-balance while she added a zest of life to his engineer’s precision. Most of their 50 plus years were spent in Beaumont, Texas. They built their own home there, designed by Burl, on Taylor’s Bayou, and treasured their encounters with birds and aquatic life – even alligators! They golfed often together and were consummate and gracious hosts for a large social circle.

 Betty was an accomplished cook, as well as a lively conversationalist. She was active in many philanthropies and social clubs. Betty was also an ardent animal lover, and throughout her life owned and adored many dogs and cats.&nbsp; She and Burl traveled extensively throughout the world and spent extended time in Italy learning the language and perfecting their photography skills. A life-long lover of the arts, Betty obtained her master’s degree in fine arts from Lamar University at the age of 67.&nbsp; Although she lived in Texas for most of her life, her vibrantly colored canvases often reflected the big, dramatic skies of her birthplace, Kansas.&nbsp; She was a prolific and award-winning artist, and her paint brush and artisan community provided her years of joy.

Betty was preceded in death by her cherished Burl, and is survived by her sister, Eileen Baker Berkley, of Salina, Kansas. Although she had no children, “Aunt B” was a beloved elder to many nieces and nephews as well as great-nieces and nephews.

We remember her for her confident and optimistic outlook, her Texas accent, her charm and charisma in any social situation, her many works of art that adorn our family’s walls, her quick smile and infectious laugh, and her strong Catholic faith. We will also remember fondly Betty and Burl’s tradition of a single, perfectly mixed and shaken martini, enjoyed on most days of their lives right at 5:00 o’clock.

Donations in her honor can be made to Bethany Home, Lindsborg, Kansas. (<a href="about:blank" target="_blank">https://bethanyvillageks.com</a>)

Micole Marie Anderson (Kallman) 

Our dear mother Diana Showalter, went to be with our Lord at the young age of 58, on October 19th, 2023 in Edgewater, Florida.

Diana had such a loving personality, and anyone who got to know her knew she loved with her whole heart. She always put everyone else’s needs before herself. The first thing you’d noticed about her were bright blue eyes and beautiful smile.

She loved Meatloaf, (the band not the food), and having dance parties in the living room while she cleaned. She loved the beach and the heat. She was a hard worker and loved her job where she would come in contact with alligators and other wildlife in the Florida area. She was a fearless soul, She would make a decision and just go with it, and she’d conquer it with no backing down.

She loved and was loved by many and will be missed immensely.

She always put everyone else’s needs before herself. The first thing you’d noticed about her were bright blue eyes and beautiful smile.She loved Meatloaf, (the band not the food), and having dance parties in the living room while she cleaned. She loved the beach and the heat. She was a hard worker and loved her job where she would come in contact with alligators and other wildlife in the Florida area. She was a fearless soul, She would make a decision and just go with it, and she’d conquer it with no backing down.She loved and was loved by many and will be missed immensely.Diana was Born October 24th, 1964 to Melva Margaret Dopson and Donald Lawerence Showalter.
