September 1, 1962.&nbsp; They lived together in Colby and raised seven 
children.

Jeanette did her best to raise good, loving, and caring children.&nbsp; 
Even though she gave wonderful gifts to her children at Christmas time, 
she expected nothing in return.&nbsp; When her children would surprise her

dearly missed.

Lillian Marie (Sander) Dreiling

Briggs MacRae Dorian-Lawrence died Wednesday, January 5, 2022.&nbsp;&nbsp;He 
was 19 years old.&nbsp;&nbsp;He came into this world at 11 lbs 8 ounces and left 
this world standing at 6’5”.

Briggs left home at 7:00 a.m. Wednesday morning en route to Center 
for Change.&nbsp;&nbsp;Where he was excited to participate in outpatient treatment
 for his eating disorder.&nbsp;&nbsp;At 7:40 a.m. in Spanish Fork Canyon (Utah) he
 drifted over the center line into oncoming traffic, colliding head on 
with a truck (auto truck trailer).&nbsp;&nbsp;He died instantly.

Briggs was born on April 30, 2002 in Edmonds, Washington.&nbsp;&nbsp;He and his
 mother moved to Lawrence, KS in 2007 (his father arrived soon after) 
where he attended Raintree Montessori School for seven plus years.&nbsp;&nbsp;In 
2015 he and his mother moved to Mount Pleasant, Utah where Briggs 
attended 8th grade at Wasatch Academy Middle School (WAMS).
 &nbsp;&nbsp;They moved to Atlanta in July of 2016.&nbsp;&nbsp;Briggs attended his freshman 
year at Riverwood International Charter School, he spent his sophomore 
and junior years at the Lovett School.&nbsp;&nbsp;After the death of his Aunt Pam 
(Dorian) Campbell, Briggs and his mother returned to Mount Pleasant 
where Briggs spent his senior year.&nbsp;&nbsp;Briggs graduated with the Wasatch 
Academy class of 2020.&nbsp;&nbsp;In August of the same year, Briggs began his 
journey at Rochester Institute of Technology with what he called “his 
people” in Rochester, NY.&nbsp;&nbsp;He was a second year student at RIT at the 
time of his death.

Like his parents, Briggs had an interest in, and talent for, 
music.&nbsp;&nbsp;He began playing the viola in fourth grade where he performed 
with the Spring Hill (KS) Orchestras.&nbsp;&nbsp;Music was always a large part of 
his life.&nbsp;&nbsp;He had enjoyed many accomplishments on the viola.&nbsp;&nbsp;Some 
highlights of his musical career include mentoring and coaching for the 
String Orchestra of Decatur and Atlanta (SODA), six years of wonderful 
experiences at the High Plains Music Camp at Fort Hays State University 
in Hays, KS, playing the Messiah in December 2021 at Snow College 
(Utah), and his final performance, with the Dorian String Quartet this 
past Christmas Eve with Claudia, Graham, and his mother Sarah.&nbsp;&nbsp;In 
addition to the viola, Briggs was an avid composer of string music and 
creating and performing digital music.

Briggs’s profound passion for computer science, programming and 
gaming, was beyond a deep passion, it inspired his days.&nbsp;&nbsp;Briggs was a 
virtuosic digital native. He had an astonishing comprehension of all 
things computers and was fluent in numerous programming 
languages.&nbsp;&nbsp;These passions culminated in the creation of his own 
(computer) server, in his attendance at RIT, and his prized and 
cherished 2021 summer IT internship at Boulevard Brewing Company (Kansas
 City, MO).

Much like his granddad Jim, Briggs had the ability to see the world 
in multiple dimensions and with a surprising level of detail. He made 
friends and connections with both the young and the old due to his 
engaging personality, his deep curiosity and his passion for 
life.&nbsp;&nbsp;Briggs was well traveled, he made his home in many different 
communities, and the outpouring of love that we are now receiving is a 
testament to the impact he had on us all.

His Funeral Service will be held at 3:30 pm, Monday, January 10th, in
 the Music Conservatory at Wasatch Academy (at the corner of 100 South 
and 100 West, the former Presbyterian Church).&nbsp;&nbsp;The service will be 
available for streaming.&nbsp;&nbsp;His Celebration of Life will be held on his 
birthday, at 2 pm, Saturday, April 30th, 2022 at St Patrick’s Episcopal 
Church in Pagosa Springs, Colorado, where his ashes will be laid.

In lieu of flowers the family would appreciate a donation in Briggs’s
 name to causes dear to Briggs’s heart; including any free and open 
source&nbsp;software organization, JDRF, the Humane Society (examples of 
links include:&nbsp;<a href="http://opencollective.com/" target="_blank">opencollective.com</a>, JDRF.org, HumanSociety.org).

Briggs is survived by his mother, Sarah Dorian (of Mount Pleasant, 
UT), and his father, Blue Lawrence (of Shawnee, KS) and his brother 
Austen Julka-Lawrence (30) of Renton, WA, his beloved Bengal cats Hugo 
and Rosie.&nbsp;&nbsp;His Aunt Marjorie (Dorian) Adair (Kansas City, MO), her 
husband Jeff and their children Tess (20) and James (15).&nbsp;&nbsp;His Uncle 
Graham Dorian (Atlanta, GA), his wife Jennifer and their daughters 
Claudia (20) and Rebecca (18).&nbsp;&nbsp;His Uncle Ted Campbell (North Kansas 
City, MO), and their children George, Sam, and Caroline.&nbsp;&nbsp;His Aunt Deb 
Lawrence (Indianapolis, IN).&nbsp;&nbsp;His Grandparents James and Rebecca Dorian 
(Pagosa Springs, CO) and JD and Lois Lawrence (Indianapolis, 
IN).&nbsp;&nbsp;Briggs was preceded in death by his cousin Alyssa Joy Campbell and
 his Aunt Pamela (Dorian) Campbell.

Joan Marie Krische Boos passed away peacefully, surrounded by family, on January 6, 2022, at Olathe Health Hospice House.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Joan was born in Topeka, Kansas on October 15, 1934, to Frank and Pauline (Melchior) Krische, the third of seven children.&nbsp;&nbsp;The Krische house on Buchanan Street was always full of family and friends, overflowing with love.&nbsp;&nbsp;Joan grew up actively involved in St Joseph Parish, attending elementary school there and graduating from Hayden High School. For years Joan was an organist at St. Joseph Catholic Church. Following high school, Joan worked for Southwestern Bell Telephone.&nbsp;

In August of 1955, Joan met the love of her life, Donald G. Boos.&nbsp;&nbsp;They were married on January 28, 1956.

Viola&nbsp;Marie Depperschmidt&nbsp;Enslinger,&nbsp;94, of La Crosse, Kansas, 
passed away peacefully on Wednesday, January 5, 2022, at Rush County
 Memorial Hospital. No longer hindered by a failing body and mind, she 
went to be with the Lord and was reunited with the love of her life, 
Ben.&nbsp;

Viola was born on&nbsp;September 24, 1927,&nbsp;in La Crosse, Kansas, to John 
and Bernadina (Werth) Depperschmidt.&nbsp;She was a graduate of Schoenchen 
High School, Schoenchen, Kansas. While attending school, she met her 
sweetheart, Ben Enslinger. They were married on October 27, 1948, at St.
 Joseph’s Catholic Church in Liebenthal, Kansas. They then settled in La
 Crosse, Kansas. In 1972 Viola and Ben became co-owners of Enslinger 
Lumber and ran their business for nearly 40 years until they reluctantly
 entered into semi-retirement. After 63 years of marriage, Ben passed 
away July, 14, 2012.&nbsp;

Viola and Ben happily welcomed three children, Belinda, Kathy, and 
Lynn, into their family. Viola loved being a mother and being home with 
her children. She often spoke of how she had cookies waiting for not 
only her children but many neighborhood kids when they came home from 
school. She relished her role as Grandmother to seven grandchildren and 
was very involved in supporting them throughout their lives. She was 
also Great-Grandma to 20 great-grandkids. She and Ben took great pride 
in their posterity.

Viola enjoyed embroidery, sewing, quilt making, cooking, baking, 
playing cards, eating sweets,&nbsp;and traveling.&nbsp;She was a gifted seamstress
 and created beautiful quilts that will be cherished by her family and 
friends for years to come. She took great pride in her work and would 
correct mistakes until it was perfect. She won numerous ribbons for her 
handiwork in the local fair. Viola loved to travel with her husband and 
they visited many countries together. Viola was an avid walker and could
 be seen walking around the neighborhood well into her late 80s. She was
 an excellent cook, loved to feed her family, and she especially enjoyed
 dessert.

In addition to working alongside her husband at Enslinger Lumber, 
Viola was an active member of St. Michael’s Catholic Church and of the 
Altar Society, she volunteered at Second Chance thrift store for 25 
years, and was a regular blood donor.&nbsp;

Viola leaves behind her daughters: Belinda (Bruce Axelrod) Tomlinson 
of Fort Collins, Colorado, and Kathy (John) Stockton of Lafayette, 
Colorado; a son, Lynn of La Crosse, Kansas; seven grandchildren: Ryan 
(Candise) Tomlinson, Scott (Sarah) Tomlinson, Eric (Ellen) Stockton, 
Jason (Kristin) Stockton, Kelsey (Josh) Clemens, Dustin (Heather) 
Enslinger, and Melissa (Shawn) Minge; and 20 great-grandchildren.&nbsp;

daughter-in-law, Patricia Enslinger; her brothers: Eugene, Alfred, 
Harold, and&nbsp;Pat; and sisters: Esther Enslinger, Louise Rupp, Vernita 
Linenberger, Edna Depperschmidt,&nbsp;and JoAnna Depperschmidt.&nbsp;Viola was the

Robert 'Ed' Elliott

“The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena.” – Carl Sagan

Beloved educator, scientist, bus driver, father, and friend Robert “Bob” Wilson, 73, passed away on December 7, 2021, in Mill Valley, 
California. He was born on November 11, 1948, in Alva, Oklahoma, the son
 of Harold and Mary Wilson. Bob had brain cancer and was with his 
children in his last two months of life, characteristically charming his
 care team and cracking dry jokes throughout.

Bob received a Bachelor of Arts from Northwestern Oklahoma State 
University in 1971 and his Master of Science in Education from Fort Hays
 State University in 1983. He spent three years in the Army and then 
taught prisoners before moving to Garden City, Kansas, in 1976 to begin a
 career that spanned 35 years. Bob was a biology teacher and bus driver 
at Holcomb High School and an anatomy and physiology instructor at 
Garden City Community College. He was known as “Biology Bob,” and he 
challenged and inspired countless students to explore what is now known 
as STEM.

Bob’s love of science and education was only matched by his passion 
for his pet cats and all wildlife. He was one of the founding members of
 the Cougar Network, a nonprofit organization that researches the 
movements of mountain lions across North America. Bob deeply respected 
the natural world and never missed an opportunity to teach his children 
about the cycle of life and how to experience wonder in the unlikeliest 
of places. Bob fished and hunted. He found otherworldly awe in the 
outdoors, in a petri dish, and in science fiction.

In 2019, Bob moved to Amarillo, Texas, to spend more time with his 
companion, Dr. Margaret Weis. In his later years, Bob explored and 
vacationed in London, Venice, Rome, Buenos Aires, Paris, Uruguay, and 
Iceland.

Bob was preceded in death by his wife, Marlene Wilson, and his 
parents. He is survived by his daughter, son-in-law, and grandson, 
Melissa, Graham, and Rigel Beer of San Rafael, California; his son and 
his son’s partner, Scott Wilson and Allison Fine of Seattle; his sister,
 Judy Kirk of Enid, Oklahoma, and her daughter, Jill Bristol of Jenks, 
Oklahoma; and his brother-in-law, Wayne Kaldahl of Lincoln, Nebraska, 
and his children and their spouses, Jeff Kaldahl of Chicago, Steven 
Kaldahl of Bellevue, Nebraska, and Jill and Tom Teachout of Lincoln.

A Celebration of Life will be held in May 2022 near the West Green 
gazebo of Lee Richardson Zoo in Garden City, Kansas. To continue Bob’s 
academic impact, memorial scholarships will be set up in his name.
