John Charles Squier, age 60, passed away peacefully at his home in 
Ransom, Kansas, on September 10, 2021. He was born October 22, 1960, to Russell and Veta 
(Walker) Squier.

John was a United States Army Ranger veteran, world traveler, poet, 
author, philosopher of life and brother to many. One of John’s greatest 
achievements was the publication of his novel and his collection of 
poetry writings.

Survivors include a brother Marion Lee (Colette Pearce) Squier, 
Austin, Texas, 2 nieces Stefanie Squier and Cecily (Dave Kehr) Squier; 2
 great nephews Nels and Karsten Visser; and many friends he met along 
his journey in life. He was preceded in death by a brother William 
Squier, Jr; a sister, Doveta Squier and his parents William Russell 
Squier and Veta (Walker) Squier.

John left his stamp on this world through his stories (told and 
untold) and friendships along the way. John left us with some simple yet
 profound words of advice “Don’t ever change and keep learning. Do what 
you love and continue to grow with it. Never stop growing as a person. 
We all get this one life, use it wisely.” He lives on in the hearts and 
minds of his many friends, family and colleagues.

Services will be held October 23, 2021, at 2pm at the American Legion Sunley-Squier Post 382, Brownell, Kansas.

Memories and words of support can be left for the family by writing in the guest book.

Lisa Ann Edgett, 63, of Great Bend died September 9, 2021 at her home
 in Great Bend. She was born September 22, 1957, in Great Bend to Carlos
 and Mary (Downey) Miller. She married Guy Disney on July 24, 1979, and 
gained a stepson, Jared Disney and stepdaughter, Lisa Disney. They later
 divorced. She married Kenneth Edgett on December 26, 2009.

After graduating from Great Bend High School in 1975, she attended 
Barton County Community Junior College and then Ottawa University where 
she received her teaching degree. She earned her Masters degree from 
Kansas State University. She taught at Park and Jefferson schools in 
Great Bend for 34 years, retiring in 2015. Since retiring, she was a 
substitute teacher in Ellinwood, St. Joseph’s in Ellinwood, St. John, 
Otis-Bison, Hoisington, Central Kansas Christian Academy, Holy Family, 
and Great Bend grade schools. For many years she also worked the night 
shift every quarter in the support department at CPI to get reports 
printed and sent out. Up until her death, she worked the Great Bend High
 School games taking tickets and sometimes working in the concession 
stand. She was also known for her decorated cakes and her bierocks which
 she did for relaxation.

As a teenager, Lisa was a member of Job’s Daughters and was the Honor
 Queen for the State of Kansas. She loved music and singing and belonged
 to the Madrigal Pop Singers in high school and the Hilltop Singers at 
BCCJC. She was also a member of the Argonne Rebels in Great Bend. She 
grew up in the Central Baptist Church where she played piano for some of
 their services. She was a member of Concordia Lutheran Church where she

Martha Rebekah Lodge #425 in St. John, member of Valley Lodge #95, 
I.O.O.F. in Great Bend, and Pratt Lodge #248, I.O.O.F. in Pratt. She was
 an avid Bunco player, looking forward to their monthly gatherings.

Those that knew her would say she was always there to help anyone who
 needed help, usually making sure everyone else was taken care of before
 herself. She loved teaching kids and seeing that moment when things 
‘clicked’. She was always there to help any child that needed help, be 
it math, reading, or any subject they were struggling with and would 
tutor on the side so they would not have to struggle in the classroom. 
She was also known for her joyful attitude, greeting everyone with a 
smile. The joys of her life were her Dachshunds, Winnie and Dixie.

She is survived by her husband, Ken of home; extended family, Angie 
and Jarred Stoney, grandsons Jordan, Javen, and Jamieson; sisters, Jill 
(Tom) Pletcher of Wichita and Lorrie (Shane) Kromka of Denver, CO;

family mom &amp; dad, Norma &amp; Kenny King.

Fred Edward Barber, 92, Hays, died 
peacefully in his sleep&nbsp;on Friday morning, September 10, 2021, at 
HaysMed.&nbsp; He was a caring husband, father, grandfather, brother, and 
friend.

Fred was born to Edward and Sophia 
(Walker) Barber on February 13, 1929, in Logan, Kansas.&nbsp; He was the 
youngest of seven children and was much loved by his older siblings.&nbsp; 
Fred married the love of his life, Georgine Peters, on November 7, 1949,
 and together they raised three very loved children.

Fred had a passion for his work in the 
oil business.&nbsp; He left high school to work on an oil rig in Graham 
County and spent the next 75 years in the oil fields of Kansas, Oklahoma
 and Colorado, eventually owning a successful wireline service company.&nbsp;
 He was a bright man and a very hard worker who had the natural ability 
to get along with others.&nbsp; He was a quiet, respectful leader with a 
solid sense of how to run a good business.&nbsp; He continued to work until 
this past year when he finally decided he would retire and take life 
easy.

In addition to his passion for his work,&nbsp; he also enjoyed raising cattle.&nbsp; Although he only made it a “hobby,” he
 enjoyed pulling his pickup into the pasture and seeing the cows come 
running for the range cubes he kept in the back.&nbsp; He always gave his 
cows treats, so if they got out of the pasture through a break in the 
fence, all he had to do was drive into the pasture and watch them come 
back through the break looking for range cubes.&nbsp; He’d get the cow back 
and fix the fence until next time.&nbsp; His good-natured care and compassion
 carried over into every aspect of his life.

Throughout his life and especially as a
 father and grandfather, Fred was also very patient and thoughtful.&nbsp; The
 skills that made him a good manager also made him a good provider and 
caretaker of his family.&nbsp; Fred valued the importance of education and 
supported his children and grandchildren in all their educational 
endeavors, taking great pride in his family and always encouraging them 
in any way he could.

Although Fred may be gone, his legacy of dedication, love and kindness will live on through his family and friends.

Fred is survived by his wife: Georgine 
of Hays, his children: Frederick Barber and wife Fran of Trophy Club, 
TX, Gloria Jones and husband David of Waterville, ME, and Louise 
Smith-Klitzke and husband Jason of Wilson Lake in Kansas, his six 
grandchildren: Kelly Rashada, Patrick Barber, Lauren Jones McKown, David
 Jones, Mallory Harshbarger, and Dakota Smith, and seven 
great-grandchildren.

The family will receive friends from 
3:00 pm until 7:00, with a vigil service at 6:00 pm, all on Thursday, 
September 16, 2021 at Hays Memorial Chapel Funeral Home.&nbsp; A private 
family inurnment will be at a later date in Buchanan Cemetery, Graham 
County.&nbsp; 

Memorials are suggested to TMP-Marian High School.&nbsp; Condolences
 and memories of Fred may be shared with the family at

Michael John Soukup passed away to be in his heavenly home on Friday, 
September 10, 2021, at his home in Wilson, Kansas at the age of 74. He 
was born to Raymond and Claire (Mog) Soukup on January 27, 1947, on the 
family farm in Wilson. He was united in marriage to Karan Klusener on 
September 26, 1970. The couple was blessed with three children: Alan, 
Angela, and Lindsay.
 Mike was a lifelong resident to Wilson. He attended Wilson High 
School and graduated with the class of 1965. He went on to attend Fort 
Hays State in the fall of 1965 to play football and returned home in the
 spring to work the family farm until he was drafted into the United 
States Army in 1966. He was honorably discharged and returned to Wilson 
where he worked for the Union Pacific Railroad for 37 years. After his 
retirement in 2007 he and his brother Tom ranched and farmed. Mike had a
 love for nature and never passed up a time to hunt, fish, or just enjoy
 a cold Milwaukee’s Best under a shade tree when it was nice out. He 
also stayed busy fixing or building at the family farm or in his own 
home. Mike was a very involved father and grandfather. He loved to take 
his kids and grandkids fishing and hunting and attending their sporting 
events. In recent years his health declined but he never complained of 
his pain, and always made his adoration times. Mike was a member of the 
Legion, Knights of Columbus, and a donor to several organizations 
including the NRA.
 A man of great character, strong values, and deep love for family 
and friends, Mike was a shining example of a strong Christian man. He 
was loving, kind, giving, and honest to a fault. He was fearless, tough,
 and was a great provider for his family. Although he will be greatly 
missed, his love and influence will remain in the hearts and lives of 
his family and friends. May his legacy inspire each of us to encourage 
one another, cherish the ties that bind, and live to serve God, Home, 
and Country everyday of our lives.
 Left to cherish his memories is his wife, Karan Soukup of the home; 
children, Alan (Lisa) Soukup of Salina, KS, Angela (Don) Browning of 
Wilson, and Lindsay (Travis) Cullens of Wilson; siblings, Louise (Leo) 
Masden of Wilson, Steve (Janie) Soukup of McPherson, KS, Jim (Carolyn) 
Soukup of Wilson, Francis (Jeanette) Soukup of Claflin, KS, Fred Soukup 
of Wilson, and Pat (Dio) Soukup of Norwich, KS; sister-in-law, Carla 
Soukup of Dorrance, KS; grandchildren, Brennan Soukup, Braydan Browning,
 Kaitlyn Browning, Makenna Soukup, and Skylar Cullens; one 
great-grandchild, Reid Browning; and many nieces and nephews that loved 
him dearly.
 Mike is preceded in death by his parents, Raymond and Claire Soukup;
 siblings, Tom Soukup and Joni Soukup; and a grandchild, Steven 
Browning.
 A Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Thursday, September 16, 
2021, at the St. Wenceslaus Catholic Church in Wilson at 10:30 AM. A 
Visitation will be held on Wednesday at the funeral home from 1 PM until

traveled to numerous countries both in the jewelry business and as an 
energetic tourist. Though she was traveling around the world on a 
regular basis, Mitzi never adopted the "travel light" mentality. While 
traveling in Asia with Mike visiting palaces and temples sites in 
Thailand, it took two grown men to move her suitcase. When Mitzi stepped
 up and moved the case herself with one hand, the men were both shocked,
 and amazed. When they learned she was a tender 68 they were speechless.
 Mitzi was a constant and positive force in all her families' 
endeavors and adventures, supporting numerous local and national 
charities, as well as those overseas. She assisted the widows and 
orphans in both Afghanistan and Iraq, to include the shipment of 
clothing, food, and toys to those devastated families by personally 
rounding up an assistance posse obtaining and shipping those items in 
volume. A fierce patriot she loved her country and community and took 
many people under her wing who were immigrants to the country, or the 
state. Many Christmas Eves saw visitors to her home she had never seen 
before, people who had been brought to her home by sons who found a soul
 in need at that time of the year. All were treated warmly as family on 
the spot by Mitzi, who seemed to grow her friends and family a bit more 
with each passing season. In lieu of flowers the family would like 
donations to be made to the Phillips Fundamental Learning Center, 2220 
E. 21 St N, Wichita, KS, 67214 (316-684-7373). Please check their

death by her husband, Duane; her sisters, Barb, Peggy, and Jane. She is 
survived by her brother, Tim; and four sons, Mike, Mark (Dee), Monte, 
and Marty (Judy); as well as four grandchildren, Jason, Jordon, Beau, 
Michelle; and one great-grandson, Adam; as well as her beloved pet, Zoe. Mitzi
 grew up in Hays, Kansas, and loved her daily trips to the library a 
short walk from their home. She attended St. Anthony Parish Girls High 
Catholic School. Swimming was a favorite activity along with reading. 
Mitzi graduated in 1957 and was married to Duane from Damar, Kansas in 
1958. The couple moved to Wichita where they started a family and Mitzi attended Sacred Heart College. Mitzi
 had always loved precious gemstones and began to study them as a hobby.
 She worked at Wetzel's in downtown Wichita and while there started the 
Gem Institute of America's Appraisers course. Under the America Society 
of Appraisers, she tested for, and received her Master Gem Appraisers 
certification. Mitzi continued to work at Wetzel's, and at Barriers 
Jewelry in East Wichita. Mitzi, while somewhat claustrophobic, 
stirred up her courage to venture down into diamond Mines while 
traveling in Africa to see the stones at their point of origin. She 
traveled to numerous countries both in the jewelry business and as an 
energetic tourist. Though she was traveling around the world on a 
regular basis, Mitzi never adopted the "travel light" mentality. While
