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.

Markus Robert Loney, Plainville, KS, passed away all too soon on 
December 31, 2021, in Plainville, at the young age of 26. He was born on
 August 11, 1995, to Douglas and Malynda (Adam) Loney in Rogers, 
Arkansas.
 Shortly after Markus was born, the family relocated to Plainville 
where he spent the vast majority of his life. Those that know Markus, 
know he had autism. This never stopped Markus; he attended Plainville 
High School and graduated with honors in 2014. He was also a part of the
 Larks Special Olympics. Markus’s favorite place to be was the Topeka 
Zoo, and a close second was any car ride with his Grandpa Ken. He loved 
being with his family and was always excited to go on a family vacation 
or do any family activity. He had many interests, some of which included
 sports like the Chiefs and Royals, playing Super Mario, and celebrating
 EVERY holiday. He was always so excited to celebrate something - 
especially his birthday. Markus was very proud of his rare coin and 
money collection, although as much as he loved collecting them, any time
 he saw a donation box of any kind he was trying to fill it with 
whatever money he had with him!
 Markus was a funny, kind, and selfless person. He brought a positive
 light and awareness to autism, showing us that you could always live 
your life to the fullest, celebrate every day, and love one another 
selflessly.
 He is survived by his parents, Doug and Malynda Loney of Plainville,
 KS; siblings, Christopher Loney of Plainville, KS, and MaKayla Loney 
(Kobe Spiess) of Plainville, KS; grandparents, Ken Adam of Plainville, 
KS, Ellen Loney of Apache Junction, AZ; and many aunts, uncles, cousins,
 and friends.
 Markus joins in his heavenly home, his grandmother, Susan (Wells) Adam; grandfather, Robert R. Loney; and uncle, John Adam.
 A Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Saturday, January 22, 
2022, at 10:30 AM at Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Plainville. 
Inurnment will follow in Plainville Cemetery.
 Memorials are suggested to a place that Markus donated to as much as
 he could, whenever he could, the Gage Park Topeka Zoo, and may be sent 
in care of Plumer-Overlease Funeral Home, 320 SW 2nd St., Plainville, KS
 67663.

Norma Jeane (Nickel) Hodge, 96, passed away January 13, 2022, at the 
Graham County Hospital, Hill City, KS. She was born July 4, 1925, on her
 grandparents' farm near Axtell, Nebraska in Kearney County to Hans 
Casper Nickel and Laura Mary (Laue) Nickel.

The youngest child, Jeane was a firecracker. When Jeane was two 
years old, she fell out of a two story window breaking her leg. She was 
the extra farm hand when growing up on the family farm six miles south 
of Kearney, Nebraska. She attended country school and passed her 
promotion test to enter Kearney High. This is when she changed to her 
first name, Norma, for there were too many “Jean's”. Norma lived in 
boarding houses throughout her high school years, and this made her a 
strong and independent woman. During high school, she earned spending 
money working at Brown McDonald's and J.C. Penney's. After graduating in
 1943, she worked at an air parts factory making parts for the war.

Norma met Warren H. Hodge during this time, and they were united
 in marriage on March 18, 1944. They spent 42 years together until his 
death in 1986. Moving to 'God Forsaken Kansas' as her dad always told 
her, they lived in McPherson and Oberlin, KS before settling in 
Phillipsburg, KS. To this union four children were born: Norman Dee, Rex
 Eugene, Lonnie Lee, and Jnell Sue.

Norma was a seamstress and worked out of her home until moving 
her business to the back room of Dorothy's Fabric store. When PHS girls 
needed a pep skirt she made it. In 1966, she began working at the 
Prairie Haven nursing home in Kensington, KS as the administrative 
assistant where she remained until retirement.

Norma had a sharp mind and amble hands. She loved to dance, 
knit, crochet, cross stitch, bead nativity ornaments, quilt, play skipbo
 and work in her flower garden. Just about anything she wanted to do, 
she did it! She was a member of the Phillipsburg First Christian Church,
 American Legion Aux. 166, Veterans of Foreign Wars Aux. and Rebekah's.

Education was very important to Norma; she made sure all her 
children finished high school. All three of her sons served in the 
military of which she was extremely proud. Finally, Norma's quote about 
children, “When they're little they step on your toes and when they get 
older they step on your heart!”

She was preceded in death by her husband Warren and son Rex, her
 parents, sisters and brother Bernice Murrish, Dietrich Nickel, and 
Louise Fritz.

Norma is survived by son Norman (Janice) Topeka, KS, 
daughter-in-law UL Son Hodge, Farmington MN, son Lonnie (Corazon) 
Norfork, VA and daughter Jnell (Carl) Conkey, Edmond, KS. Grandchildren 
Christopher, Scott, Timothy, Garran Hodge, James Oliver, Stephanie 
Howlett, Jaya Hodge, Brooks Hodge, Adam and Ian Conkey, 15 great 
grandchildren and 1great great grandchild. Brother-in-law Bobbie (Norma)
 Hodge, Salina, KS. Companion Snowball, nieces, nephews, cousins, and 
dear loving friends.

Cremation was planned.&nbsp; A memorial service will be held at a later date.

Maverick Archie Paul Way, 26, passed away on January 14, 2022, in Denver, Colorado.

Maverick was born on January 20, 1995, in Corry, PA, to Kevin Way and Christi Kubich. He was the youngest of three.

On October 17, 2015, he married his best friend Erika Fyfe of 
Goodland, Kansas at the Bellamy Ranch. All though, no children to this 
union, they have three fur babies: Copenhagen, Dixie, and Tinker.

Raised in and around Georgia. Through their moves, it was quickly 
noticed that Maverick was a good friend. He didn’t know a stranger, and 
if you started off as one it wasn’t long before he was considering you a
 friend. Throughout his high school career, he found a love for sports, 
especially wrestling, being a state placer. He graduated from Alexander 
High school in 2013 and brought his wrestling to Northwest Kansas 
Technical College in Goodland, KS. While at the college he earned his 
Associate of Applied Science in Diesel Technology, graduating in 2015.

When Maverick wasn’t being a diesel mechanic or working on a project 
of his own, he could be found spending time with his family and friends.
 He loved spending quality time with the people that loved him, doing 
the things he loved most like hunting, fishing, working with livestock, 
and riding horses. His smile, light, and laugh were contagious, and once
 he considered you a friend, he would do anything for you, but he 
wouldn’t leave you without one of his big hugs. In his quiet time, he 
could be found reading the Word and increasing his love for Jesus, 
playing Xbox with friends, or dabbling in his newest found love of 
drawing. Maverick was a good-hearted man that just loved to be loved and
 would do his all for the ones he loved.

Preceding him in death was his brother-in-law, Lee Fyfe.

Survivors include: his wife of the home, Erika, their dogs, parents: 
Kevin Way and Christi Kubich, Dennis and Dulci Fyfe, siblings: Ethan 
(Bethany) Way, Gabryelle (Ryan) Snow, and Jordan Englebrecht, nieces and
 nephews and countless life-long friends.
