&nbsp; Christina T. Werth, a beloved member of the Schoenchen, Kansas community, passed away at the Hays Medical Center on August 4, 2023, at the age of 82. She was born on December 29, 1940, in Horbach, Germany, to Alois and Anna (Geist) Franz. Christina's journey in life was one filled with love, family, and a rich tapestry of interests and activities. On May 25, 1962, Christina married the love of her life, Leroy P. Werth, in Germany. Their union was one of enduring companionship, marked by a deep and abiding affection. Leroy's passing on December 13, 2020, left a void in her heart. Christina's life was graced with many passions. She cherished her time spent with dear lady friends, sharing stories over cups of coffee. Her nimble fingers were skilled in knitting and sewing, creating beautiful pieces. She had an indomitable spirit when it came to card games, and her competitive edge shone through in games of pitch, pinochle, and bridge – her favorites.

Beyond these hobbies, she found purpose in her involvement with St. Anthony Catholic Church in Schoenchen, Kansas. Christina actively participated in the Altar Society, Religious Education, and served on the dinner committee. She also lent her guidance as a 4-H leader, shaping the lives of young members of her community. Proud of her German heritage, Christina effortlessly expressed herself in her native tongue. Her elegance and grace extended beyond appearance, encompassing her actions and interactions. She had an endearing quirk in her driving abilities, which often sparked light-hearted conversations within the family. Christina leaves behind cherished memories that will be held close by her loved ones. She is survived by her sons, LeRoy Werth Jr. and wife Joann of Hays, and Eric Werth and Sayre Shuck of Schoenchen; her daughters, Sonya Peters and Ken Nolan of Lincoln, and Michaela Werth of Phoenix; a sister Rosie in Germany; ten grandchildren, Ericka, Ashley, Peyton, Gavin, Michael, Seth, Spencer, Sierra, Jessica, and Nathaniel, as well as nineteen great-grandchildren. She joins her parents, her husband, a granddaughter Erin Elizabeth Werth, and a brother Walter in eternal peace. The funeral mass will be held at 10:00 a.m. on August 26, 2023, at St. Anthony Catholic Church in Schoenchen, Kansas, with Fr. Curtis Carlson presiding over the celebration of Christina's life. Following the services, Christina's inurnment will take place in the church cemetery. Friends and family are invited to pay their respects during the memorial visitation on August 25, 2023, from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at Brock’s-Keithley Funeral Chapel and Crematory, located at 2509 Vine, Hays, KS 67601. A combined parish vigil and rosary service will take place at 7:00 p.m. on Friday at the chapel.

September 8, 1933 ~ August 16, 2023 (age 89)

Norinne Sylvia Petersen, 89, of Hays, Kansas, entered into eternal rest on Wednesday, August 16, 2023, at Hays Good Samaritan Society.

She was born September 8, 1933, in Lake County, South Dakota, to Fred and Esther (Strom) Sales. Her family moved to Wentworth, South Dakota, before settling in Sibley, Iowa to raise their children.

In her youth, Norinne occupied her time doing cheerleading and spending time with her friends and family. She was honored to be crowned homecoming queen in high school. She graduated from Sibley High School in 1951 and went to work for the Merrick Printing Company in Sibley.

Norinne married Donald L. Petersen on July 5, 1953, at Trinity Lutheran Church in Sibley, Iowa. They were blessed to spend over 57 years by each other’s side. Many of these years together were in Hoxie, Kansas.

After her children were in school, she was employed by the U.S. government working first for Selective Service and then for the Social Security Administration, a career she found rewarding for over 30 years.

In retirement, she and her husband moved to Hays, where she continued serving as a Sunday school teacher, LWML member and many other roles in her membership at Messiah Lutheran Church. She also found time to continue her hobbies of doll collecting, crafting and spending time with family. She found joy in sharing many of her talents with her grandchildren who have fond memories of taking trips, visiting historical sites, playing dress-up, writing plays, and having tea parties.

Survivors include a son, Donald Petersen, of Bedford, Texas, a daughter, JaNell Lopez and her husband, Greg, of Overland Park, Kansas, eight grandchildren, Craig Petersen, Brad Petersen, Christy (Patrick) Catuncan, Lindsay Torres, Danielle (DJ) Hall, Ashley (Tom) Anguiano, Allie Lopez and Gracie Lopez, 14 great-grandchildren, sister-in-law, Velma Kindred of Boise, Idaho, several nieces and nephews, and many dear friends.

Doris Sloan passed away peacefully at the Good Samaritan Center on August 16, 2023. The Lord called her home on a bright morning, a perfect way to conclude her life of over a century. Doris was born on May 8th, 1920, in southwest Decatur County to Ira and Dolly (Brainard) Wasson. 

She was the oldest of five children and grew up attending county school. In 1938 Doris graduated from Selden High School and moved on to teaching at a number of different county schools in NWKS. Over the years she always recognized and pointed out former students, telling us stories of her teaching days. 

Doris began to date Clealand Sloan and soon after traveled to California to marry him on July 6th, 1942. The product of this marriage was three beautiful children (Judy, Tom, and Cindi) and a life full of love. 

While Clealand was in Europe serving the United States during WW II Doris moved back to her hometown. Not long after her return home Judy was born. After the war Clealand returned and the family moved to Selden. They then decided to move their family to Norton County. 

Shortly after the move Doris’ husband joined the National Guard and it was back to military life for her. During this time, she worked at JM McDonalds until 1963 when Clealand was transferred to Oklahoma City. The city life was quite a change for the family. After four years they were transferred again to Heidelberg, Germany in 1967. In ’72 Doris moved back to Oberlin while Clealand served in Vietnam. A short year later they picked up and moved again, this time to Manhattan, KS. 

Doris retired in Manhattan after working as a saleswoman in a retail clothing store. In 1984 the couple decided to spend some time traveling and spent their winter in south Texas. This lasted for four years or so until Clealand passed away.

 After her husband’s death Doris moved yet again, back to Oberlin.

 She became very active in her church and community, and even started a widows’ group that continued for years. Doris invested in The Dresser, an upcoming retail store that is still serving the people of Oberlin today. She loved to volunteer and especially enjoyed unpacking the articles of clothing the store would receive. Traveling was a great passion of Doris’ and 2000 she was able to have another big trip with all her friends to celebrate her 80th birthday on a bus tour of Europe. 

She had a wonderful sense of humor with a touch of temperament and shake of sarcasm. She was always able to joke around while still demanding respect from those around her. Doris found family time to be very important and loved spending time with all her children and extended family. In any get together you could always find her in the kitchen, cooking up a storm and tending to everyone’s needs. 

Doris spent her later years at the Good Samaritan Center in Oberlin where she enjoyed her time keeping everyone on the straight and narrow. 

Doris Sloan was preceded in death by her husband Clealand Sloan, daughter Cindi Sauder, son-in-law Dennis Shirley, brothers Donald Wasson and Keith Wasson, sisters Daisy Schmidt and MaryLou Wasson, parents Dolly and Ira Wasson, and many other family members and friends.

The Lord called her home on a bright morning, a perfect way to conclude her life of over a century. Doris was born on May 8th, 1920, in southwest Decatur County to Ira and Dolly (Brainard) Wasson. She was the oldest of five children and grew up attending county school. In 1938 Doris graduated from Selden High School and moved on to teaching at a number of different county schools in NWKS. Over the years she always recognized and pointed out former students, telling us stories of her teaching days. Doris began to date Clealand Sloan and soon after traveled to California to marry him on July 6th, 1942. The product of this marriage was three beautiful children (Judy, Tom, and Cindi) and a life full of love. While Clealand was in Europe serving the United States during WW II Doris moved back to her hometown. Not long after her return home Judy was born. After the war Clealand returned and the family moved to Selden. They then decided to move their family to Norton County. Shortly after the move Doris’ husband joined the National Guard and it was back to military life for her. During this time, she worked at JM McDonalds until 1963 when Clealand was transferred to Oklahoma City. The city life was quite a change for the family. After four years they were transferred again to Heidelberg, Germany in 1967. In ’72 Doris moved back to Oberlin while Clealand served in Vietnam. A short year later they picked up and moved again, this time to Manhattan, KS. Doris retired in Manhattan after working as a saleswoman in a retail clothing store. In 1984 the couple decided to spend some time traveling and spent their winter in south Texas. This lasted for four years or so until Clealand passed away. After her husband’s death Doris moved yet again, back to Oberlin. She became very active in her church and community, and even started a widows’ group that continued for years. Doris invested in The Dresser, an upcoming retail store that is still serving the people of Oberlin today. She loved to volunteer and especially enjoyed unpacking the articles of clothing the store would receive. Traveling was a great passion of Doris’ and 2000 she was able to have another big trip with all her friends to celebrate her 80th birthday on a bus tour of Europe. She had a wonderful sense of humor with a touch of temperament and shake of sarcasm. She was always able to joke around while still demanding respect from those around her. Doris found family time to be very important and loved spending time with all her children and extended family. In any get together you could always find her in the kitchen, cooking up a storm and tending to everyone’s needs. Doris spent her later years at the Good Samaritan Center in Oberlin where she enjoyed her time keeping everyone on the straight and narrow. Doris Sloan was preceded in death by her husband Clealand Sloan, daughter Cindi Sauder, son-in-law Dennis Shirley, brothers Donald Wasson and Keith Wasson, sisters Daisy Schmidt and MaryLou Wasson, parents Dolly and Ira Wasson, and many other family members and friends. Doris is survived by her daughter Judy Shirley, son Tom Sloan and his wife Leanna, seven grandchildren, eight great-grandchildren, and two great-great-grandchildren and several nieces and nephews. Funeral services will be held on Saturday, August 19, 2023, at the Oberlin United Methodist Church at 11:00 AM.

Teri attended school in Greeley, Colorado graduating with the class of 1980. 

After graduating, she moved to Kansas to live with and help her sister with her family. In 1993, Teri met David Gould, and on March 24, 1994, David and Teri were united in marriage in Colby, Kansas.

She raised chickens and ducks, and they would follow her around as if she were their mother. Teri enjoyed watching birds, especially cardinals. Teri took pride and pleasure in her rock and flower gardens.

 In recent years Teri had the joy of raising her granddaughter, Shayna. She loved attending Shayna’s school activities.

Teri is survived by her husband, David; sons, Mathew Gould of Liberty, Missouri, Jeremy Gould and wife Nicole of Pensacola, Florida, Casey Gould of Oakley, Kansas and Ryan Altman and wife Tika of Oakley, Kansas; one brother, Mark and one sister, Pam Hannon; and seven grandchildren.
