Judith Carol Robison, the daughter of Carrol Anderson and Mildred (Aspergren) Anderson, was born May 18, 1933 in Scandia, Kansas and passed away on April 13, 2023 at Republic County Hospital at the age of 89 years, 10 months and 25 days.

Judith grew up in Scandia, KS, attending the local public schools and graduated from Scandia High School in 1951.&nbsp; 

After graduating Judith began her banking career.&nbsp; She worked at the Scandia State Bank for 24 years.&nbsp; She was a teller and the Assistant Cashier.&nbsp; She was in charge of making sure every penny was accounted for, in and out of the bank.&nbsp; Her boss (Walter Boyles) reports “Judith runs a tight ship” so did he, so they were a great match.

Judith was a member of the Amana Lutheran Church in Scandia where she held many positions, including being the Sec/Treasurer for over 25 years.&nbsp; She was a member of the Amana WELCAN Ladies Group, an Eagles Club member, a Moose Lodge member, enjoyed the Red Hat Ladies Club, and later became a member of the Scandia United Methodist Church.&nbsp;&nbsp;

On September 6, 1975, she was united in marriage to Charles Robison.&nbsp; She instantly became a mom to three teenagers (Delton, Debbie and Doyle) and took on the role of a farm wife.&nbsp; 

Robison Farms soon needed a bookkeeper and chef, and Judith accepted those positions willingly.&nbsp; She delivered food to the family out in the field and, of course, at the farm. Robison Farms Custom Harvesting ran six combines from Texas to the Canada border, harvesting wheat, and then returning home to harvest the fall crops.&nbsp; Charles and Judith would meet the crew toward the end of the season, Judith would help cook and Charles would fill in wherever he was needed.&nbsp; They would come home with Delton and Belinda’s children, take care of them and send them to school until the entire group was home. Judith learned how to run a computer, do books on the computer, backup files, send records to the accountant on jump drives, read Facebook, upload, download and copy family pictures, read emails, find the weather forecast and play solitaire.&nbsp;

Judith enjoyed sewing and she made a lot of her own clothes, wedding dresses and even suits for others.&nbsp; She was an awesome seamstress and had many customers who had her do alterations to their clothing.&nbsp; As the years went by she made baby blankets, teddy bears, Care Bears, Cabbage Patch dolls, other dolls and doll clothes for her grandchildren.&nbsp; 

She enjoyed traveling anywhere Charles or the family would take her Florida, Colorado, fishing and cruising in Alaska, Montana, Nebraska, North and South Dakota, Nevada, California to name a few.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Judith was a collector. She enjoyed collecting cookbooks, spoons, cookie jars, rolling pins, shoes, clothes and redbirds.&nbsp; She loved to shop a lot and give gifts to those she loved.&nbsp;&nbsp;

The most important thing in Judith’s heart was family.&nbsp; She enjoyed cooking and having the family over for all the holidays.&nbsp; She enjoyed going to family reunions, meeting and visiting with extended family. She kept family tree records, extended family pictures and labeled them for younger generations to come.&nbsp;&nbsp; She enjoyed sharing those memories/pictures with the younger generation.&nbsp; Even in her last few months, she had a list of her immediate family and reviewed the list multiple times daily as she did not want to forget anyone.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Judith was preceded in death by her parents Carrol and Mildred Anderson; her husband Charles in 2018; sister Anita Sothers; grandson Christopher Simmons; daughter-in-law Linda Robison; and brother-in-law Dean Sothers.&nbsp;

Judith is survived by one stepdaughter, Debbie (Kevin) Simmons of Scandia, KS; two stepsons, Delton (Belinda) Robison of Scandia, KS, Doyle (Brenda) Robison of Kinsley, KS;&nbsp; eight grandchildren, Jeffery (Katie) Simmons of Devine, TX, Nicholas (Heather) Robison of Republic, KS, Daniel (Leslie) Robison, Belleville, KS, Kyle (Brandi) Robison of Courtland, KS, Adam Simmons of Scandia, KS,&nbsp; Kelli (Perry) Johnston of Buhler, KS, Nena (Cody) Shepard of Solomon, KS, and Dustin Robison of Kinsley, KS; 19 great-grandchildren; other relatives and friends.

Funeral services will be held at 10:30 a.m., Saturday, April 29, 2023 at the United Methodist Church, Scandia, KS with Pastor Sandra Jellison-Knock, officiating.

Interment will follow at the Riverview Cemetery, Scandia, KS.

Mary Elizabeth Herr passed away at age 94, on April 19, 2023, in Hesston, Kansas. Mary was born on July 22,1928, in Plain City, Ohio, to Eli and Ida (Kaufman) Yutzy.

She married H. Eugene "Gene" Herr on May 21, 1955, in Kingview, Pennsylvania. 

She was preceded in death by her husband; and brothers, Earl Yutzy and Vernon Yutzy, who resided in Plain City. She attended primary and high school in Plain City. She graduated in 1949 (AA) and 1953 (BA) from Goshen College in Goshen, Indiana. Mary had a wonderfully diverse life and career that touched many people. From 1949-51 she taught at a one-room school in Plain City. In 1953, she moved to Chicago where she meet Gene while serving in the Mennonite Church’s Voluntary Service program.

After raising three children she returned to work outside the home, teaching Language Arts in Harper, Kansas, and Middlebury, Indiana, during the late 1960s to mid-1970s. From 1978-1982, she and Gene were co-directors of the Phoenix Discipleship and Service program sponsored by the Mennonite Board of Missions, and from 1982-1985 she served Director of Service Ministries at the Mennonite Board of Missions in Elkhart, Indiana. From 1985 through 2001, Mary and Gene established The Hermitage Retreat Center in Three Rivers, Michigan—a place where their vision and dreams came together. Located on 53 acres with a barn that was expertly repurposed by a local craftsman and family friend, it is a place for spiritual retreats and to connect with nature on wooded trails. After retiring in 2001, they spent five months in Belfast, Northern Ireland, working at the Columbanus Community of Reconciliation. They also traveled domestically and internationally. Through the years and across different roles and settings, Mary served and mentored others. She was a doting and loving mother and grandmother, a wonderful friend, and a chef known for keeping and starting family culinary traditions. She was also a gracious hostess and opened her home to countless visitors from throughout the world. Those experiences enriched her family and formed life-long relationships. She is survived by three children, son Phillip and his wife Maria of Olney, Maryland; son Karl and his wife Mary Lynne of Bayfield, Colorado; and daughter Ellen Awe and her husband Darryl of Wichita, Kansas. She has six granddaughters along with their respective spouses, Jessica McElhiney, Heather Herr, Alejandra Herr (Brian Boyd), Emily (Chris) Metcalf, Amber Vogts (Matt Wilder), and Avery Vogts (Ethan Oltean).

Barbara Ellen (Brown) West, of Plainville, Kansas, entered into 
her heavenly home on April 20, 2023,  at the age of 73 after a 
courageous fight with pancreatic cancer.

She was born 
on December 27, 1949, in Natoma, Kansas, to Kenneth and Viola (Baum) 
Brown. She graduated from Plainville High School in 1968. After 
graduation, Barb went to beauty school in Salina, Kansas, and this was 
also where she met the love of her life, Larry.

Barb 
and Larry were united in marriage on July 2, 1971 in Plainville, Kansas,&nbsp; and were inseparable for the next 52 years. They were blessed with three

Barb was a beautiful

and everything she did revolved around them. Whether it was playing 
cards with them, making food for them, or traveling for her grandkids’ 
sporting events every weekend. She was the best wife, Mama, Grandma, 
teacher, and biggest supporter of all. Barb loved to be outdoors and 
spent many years outside planting flowers and going fishing. She was an 
excellent fisherwoman, even known to out-fish Larry. Barb also had a 
knack for crafting, making wreaths, and crocheting blankets to name just
 a few more things that she loved and truly did well.

Lynne Plante, Plainville, Jaymme Marie (Grant) Arnold,  McPherson; Five
