Ardella Kasten Obituary 2022 - Yazel - Megli Funeral Homes (yazelmeglifh.com)
December 6, 1925 - March 31, 2022
Ardella M. Kasten, entered the Kingdom of Glory, on March 31, 2022, with her family by her side. She was born December 6, 1925, on the family farm west of White City, to Otto and Lydia (Albrecht) Hansen.
Ardella attended local schools and graduated from White City High School with the class of 1944.
On August 28, 1944, Ardella married the love of her life Clyde in White City. This union was blessed with five children.
Ardella was a homemaker on the family farm, raising her children, planting a garden and raising vegetables for the family. Another priority of Ardella’s was raising chickens and caring for all the farm cats. She also enjoyed raising flowers and with these flowers she would supply flowers for the church altar. Ardella was a faithful member of the Zion Lutheran Church in Latimer, where she was a member of the Ladies Aid and the Altar Guild. Ardella loved to quilt, making quilts for many family members through out the years. She belonged to several social clubs over the years and loved taking care of her grandchildren throughout the years.
Family was very important to Ardella; she never missed a chance to spend time with her family and she always would cook big meals for them. Ardella loved watching K-State sports and loved watching the Kansas City Chiefs play. But her favorite thing to do was watch her grandchildren’s sporting events regardless of the sports.
Ardella is survived by her husband of 78 years, Clyde, sons Gary (Connie), of Manhattan, Wayne of White City, Randy (Catherine) of Herington, and Richard (Darlene) of White City, her sister Barbara Tiede, her 10 grandchildren Shanda (Jared) Wilson, Shawn (Lorri) Kasten, Shane (Melissa) Kasten, Shelly (Brandon)Woods, Kerry (Lacie) Kasten, Joshua Kasten, Betsy Kasten, Kyler (Tana) Kasten, Kilynn (Zeb) Elliott, Kasey (Tanner) Anderson, great-grandchildren Lindsey and Luke Wilson, Grayson, Kaitlyn, and Addison Kasten, Jacob Kasten, Cutler and Kinsley Jo Kasten, Kamryn and Kreyton Anderson, Kymber, Kale, Koy and Keeley Kasten, Kannen and Kycen Elliott, and stepgrandchildren Alicia (Michael) McDaniel, Brandon Mottel and Troy Dodd.
