Dorothy Helen (Moore) McRae, 85, Hays, died Thursday, January 20, 2022 at her home.

Born March 26, 1936 to Andrew Alexander
 Moore and Anna Margaret (Senger) Moore in Studley, Kansas, Dorothy was 
the fifth of eight Moore children who spent their childhood in Studley.&nbsp;
 She attended primary grades in a two-room schoolhouse in Studley, and 
then received her secondary education at Hoxie High School in Hoxie, 
Kansas.&nbsp; She met Paul McRae while in high school and they married in 
1954.

Dorothy worked at Hill City Hospital 
while Paul was in the Army, and then moved to Colorado Springs to be 
closer to Fort Carson where Paul was stationed.&nbsp; Pamela Jean was born 
there.

After Paul’s military service, the 
young family moved to Manhattan, Kansas where Dorothy worked at Riley 
County Hospital, supporting Paul’s education in veterinary medicine.&nbsp; 
Susan Lynne and Debra Jo were both born in Manhattan.

The family moved to Hays, Kansas in 
1961, and Paula Beth and Michael Alan were both born soon thereafter.&nbsp; 
Dorothy raised five children, all of whom were educated in Hays public 
schools.

In 1961, Dorothy joined the Ellis 
County Extension and remained an active member for 56 years.&nbsp; She was 
instrumental in establishing the Gemini Juniors 4-H Club and taught many
 young seamstresses through the club.&nbsp; She served as Club Leader, 
Project Leader, checked in Open Class Photography and provided security 
in the Schenk Building during the Ellis County Fair.

Dorothy groomed dogs at the Hays 
Veterinary Clinic until the family moved to the country in 1972.&nbsp; She 
then set up her own dog grooming business and began breeding Norwegian 
Elkhounds.&nbsp; She introduced the first of this breed to the area.

Dorothy became a member of the Buckeye Ladies Club in 1972, and was part of the BQ PEO for over 40 years.

In 1978, with husband Dr. Paul McRae, 
she helped pioneer Bovine Embryo Transfer.&nbsp; They often traveled in their
 private airplane to farms in Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Colorado, 
Texas, and Arkansas.&nbsp; They flushed embryos from fertilized cattle, 
selected viable eggs, and finally placed those eggs in recipient cows.&nbsp; 
They were the first to introduce this process in much of the U.S. and, 
after working out many kinks, were very successful over the next 10 
years.

Dorothy moved back to Hays, bought a 
house and lived there over 25 years.&nbsp; While Paul and Dorothy were 
officially divorced, they remained friends throughout the remainder of 
her life, frequently celebrating family holidays or traveling for family
 visits together.&nbsp;

In the 90’s a group of California 
activists dumped a trailer full of doggie biscuits on the steps of the 
Capital in Topeka, Kansas, disputing conditions in the Kansas ‘Puppy 
Mills’.&nbsp; In response, new positions title “Facility Inspector for Kansas
 Animal Health Department” were formed and Dorothy became one of the 
first.&nbsp; She tirelessly dedicated her life to this important work from 
1991 to 2003.&nbsp; A fellow inspector noted that Dorothy had saved literally
 thousands of animal lives during her tenure.

&nbsp;After retiring, Dorothy continued her 
passion for animals and for service as a Board Member to the Hays Humane
 Society.&nbsp; Dorothy was a lifelong First United Methodist Church member, 
always helping as needed.&nbsp; She made phone calls for Prayers, became a 
Funeral Dinner Director, and yearly she helped with the Peddler’s Fair –
 an organization that dedicated all proceeds to help multiple area 
non-profit organizations.

She served on the election board and 
helped oversee each election in Hays for 48 years.&nbsp; Dorothy was a 
lifetime member of the VFW.

Dorothy McRae was preceded in death by 
her parents and sisters and brothers, Hazel Moore, Stella Clark, Della 
Stramel, Glen Moore, and Wilber Moore. Those still here to celebrate her
 life include her sister, Donna Morgenstern, her brother Bill Moore, her
 daughters, Pamela Livingston, Susan McRae Bickle (Tim Bickle), Debra 
May (Tim May), and Paula Carlson (Trent Carlson), and by her son, Michael 
McRae (Tanya).&nbsp; Nineteen grandchildren and twenty great-grandchildren 
are proud to have called her Grandma or “GMa Dot”.

A celebration of Dorothy’s life will be
 at 10:30 am on Wednesday, January 26, 2022 at Hays First United 
Methodist Church, with Rev. Craig Hauschild officiating.&nbsp; Burial will 
follow in Mt. Allen Cemetery.&nbsp; Visitation will be from 9:00 am until 
service time at the church. &nbsp;Memorials are suggested to Hays First 
United Methodist Church, in care of Hays Memorial Chapel Funeral Home.&nbsp;

Edward C. Herman

David Kruse was a man whose life was full of love. Jesus loved him – and
 although he couldn’t figure out why, he knew it to be true. He 
suspected that the real reason is that is the way Jesus is – He just 
can’t help but love, and not only David, but you as well. 
David was born January 11, 1944, to Herman and Christina (Knoepfel) in 
Grand Island, Nebraska, and he knew the love of his family including 
sisters Dorothy, Cheryl, Eva and Roselyn. He entered his eternal rest on
 January 18, 2022, due to COVID. He was predeceased by his parents and 
sister Dorothy. 
Growing up he attended Zion Lutheran School in Worms, Nebraska, and then 
attended high school and college at Concordia Teachers College in 
Seward, Nebraska. He taught physical sciences and mathematics at St. 
John’s College in Winfield, Kansas from 1966 until the school closed in 
1986. In Winfield he met Betty Sprehe and they were married June 14,&nbsp; 1970. Betty and David were parents to five adopted children: three sons 
(Craig, Wade and Clint) and two daughters (Tabitha and Wendy), so he 
experienced the love of wife and family. In later years he also was 
loved by ten grandchildren. David graduated from Kansas State University
 with an M.S. degree in physical science teaching and a PhD in physics 
education. 
David and Betty moved to Colby in 1987 where David taught physical 
sciences and computer programming at Colby Community College until his 
retirement in 2012. David was a member of Trinity Lutheran Church in 
Colby and served as lay minister, choir director and in the handbell 
choir. 
David enjoyed trees, hiking and learning. He and Betty were blessed to 
take many trips together and visited all 50 states and many foreign 
countries. 
Visitation for friends will be from 3-5:00 p.m. Sunday, January 23, 
2022, at Baalmann Mortuary, Colby. Funeral services are scheduled for 
11:00 a.m. Monday, January 24, 2022, at Trinity Lutheran Church, Colby.


In lieu of flowers, memorials are preferred to Lead a Child or Trinity’s
 bell choir and sent in care of Baalmann Mortuary, PO Box 391, Colby, KS
 67701. For information or condolences visit www.baalmannmortuary.com&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;

Henry “Butch” Chester Chadwell Jr.&nbsp;passed away Tuesday, January 18, 2022, at Hays Medical Center, Hays,
 Kansas. He was born January 21, 1953, in Laurel, Mississippi. 
He’s one of the originals. Henry was true to himself and believed in 
doing the right thing for the right reason. Henry had many passions and 
skills in his life which included hunting, fishing, golfing, gardening, 
and his favorite; being the greatest “paw paw." Henry “Butch” was never 
shy about telling you how he felt or what he thought, most of them good 
and you never had to question how much he loved his wife Linda, his 
children, grandchildren, and his lifelong friends. He was one of the 
greats, a heart too big. He will be missed more and more each day 
without his presence. He was truly a gift, and those memories will be 
forever cherished.

Survivors include his wife, Linda; his 
children: Chas Chadwell, Toni Beth Vasquez, Eli-Mariah Penka, T. Lauren 
Chadwell, and Lois Nikol Walker.

Services in care of Brock’s-Keithley Funeral Chapel and Crematory, 2509 Vine Street, Hays, KS 67601.
