attended Fort Hays, Kansas State College before returning home where he 
worked for his uncle, Vernon Berry, building terraces, did farm work for
 Leon Stoppel, and also worked in construction for Colby Steel.

On Thanksgiving Day, November 27, 1980, Milan married Deanna Ward 
Berry in Winona, Kansas.&nbsp; To this union were born three sons, Clayton 
Ward in 1982, Brandon Cyler in 1984 and Cade Nolind in 1988.

Milan worked as a parts man and mechanic for Ward Equipment in Winona

all kinds.&nbsp; He had a deep knowledge and enjoyed talking with his friends
 about the subject.

Milan was also a very good cook, making the best potatoes and gravy around, and flipping many a breakfast pancakes for his boys.

Despite his imposing physical presence, Milan was gentle, unassuming 
man; a steadfast and supportive husband, hands on father, and loving

loved the land he farmed and ranched.

Preceding him in death were his father, Victor Berry; son, Brandon

High School.&nbsp; She married James V. Traffas of Wichita, KS.&nbsp; She moved to
 Hays, Kansas and had her first child Greg; The family then moved to 
Howe, Indiana, where she had her next 3 children, Christine, Mark, and 
Michael.&nbsp; She taught grade school at Holy Angels in Sturgis, Michigan.&nbsp; 
In 1976, the family moved back to Washington, MO; Marilyn started 
teaching at her alma mater, St. Francis Borgia High School.&nbsp;

Marilyn became a single mother of 4 after making the most difficult 
decision of her life.&nbsp; But her family flourished under her love and 
strength.&nbsp; All of her children graduated college - 3 of them in college 
at the same time she was achieving her Master’s Degree.&nbsp;

Marilyn loved education, she believed in the power of learning and 
instilled in those around her, that you could achieve anything if you 
believed in yourself. &nbsp;She spent several years teaching at St. Francis 
Borgia Regional High School. &nbsp;After getting her Master’s degree, she 
became Principal at St. Gertrude’s Grade School.&nbsp; Eventually she 
returned to St. Francis Borgia Regional High School. She served the 
Borgia community in so many ways and was the first laywoman President.&nbsp; 
She developed many programs to foster the continued mission of Catholic 
Education, focused on inclusion, diversity and tolerance.

Marilyn lived life to the fullest.&nbsp; She traveled through Europe with 
the high school kids; she went to the tallest peak in Hawaii, Haleakala,
 to watch the sunrise, she hiked to the bottom of the Grand Canyon;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
She would hop in her car, plug in GPS and go!&nbsp; Visiting her dear friends
 in Michigan or her sister in Kentucky, or wherever the GPS took her.&nbsp; 
She loved to explore and see new places.&nbsp; She could cook anything, sew 
like a master seamstress and could not kill a plant if she tried.&nbsp;

After retiring, she was a volunteer extraordinaire with her Parish 
and in the Washington community from Harvest Tables, working at Encore, 
and volunteering at the Hospital.&nbsp; But her most proud and important 
role, was Grandma and Great Grandma.&nbsp; Children always had a special 
place in her heart- any no one would make her happier then to be around 
her 8 grandkids and 4 great grandkids.&nbsp;

As a lifelong educator, Marilyn’s final wish was that her body was 
donated to St. Louis University-so others could continue to learn from 
her.&nbsp;

&nbsp;She was preceded in death by her parents Jerome Swoboda and Arlene 
(Habeberger) Swoboda, her husband, James Traffas, her brother Warren 
Swoboda and her sister Lynn Cook.&nbsp; She is survived by her siblings Jane

Bruce Alan Petty, 77, of Stillwater, Okla., passed away on Saturday, August 21,
 2021. A graveside service will take place at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, 
September 11, 2021, at Fairlawn Cemetery in Stillwater. Due to COVID 
concerns, the family gratefully requests that attendees wear masks 
during the service. Strode Funeral Home and Cremation is in charge of 
the arrangements. Bruce was born January 27, 1944, in Great Bend, Kansas, to Wava M. and 
Eldon R. Petty. He grew up in Hays, Kansas, where he met Bonnie Clair 
Brandenburg. They wed in 1966, and were happily married for 55 years. He
 taught high school art in Kansas prior to receiving a PhD. from Kansas 
State University. After serving on the faculty of the University of Kentucky College of 
Education in the 1970s (where he was named a Kentucky Colonel by the 
governor), he and his family moved to Stillwater in 1978 where he served
 as the Director of the Center for Educational Technology and Professor 
of Curriculum and Instructional Design for 28 years. He was inducted 
into the Oklahoma Educators Hall of Fame in 2012. He loved a good round of golf with his friends, and played as often as 
he was able. He was also a big fan of OSU Cowboy football and the OSU 
Cowgirls basketball team. He enjoyed volunteering at the Habitat for 
Humanity ReStore, refinishing furniture, restoring antique radios, and 
helped to start the Stillwater Antique and Classic Car Club, with whom 
he restored a 1966 Mustang and a 1971 Cutlass convertible. He told great
 jokes, sang with the SUAVE performing group, and enjoyed reading 
science fiction. Mostly, though, he loved spending time with his family. He was a devoted
 husband and father, and never missed a chance to tell his two children 
how proud he was of them, and how happy he was with who they turned out 
to be. He supported Bonnie in her career and delighted in watching his 
family grow and succeed. He was preceded in death by his daughter, Melissa Lindhorst, who passed away in June 2021. He is survived by his wife, Bonnie, of Stillwater, his son Brian (Chris 
Leedy), of Atlanta, his grandson Samuel Leedy Alonzo, of Shelby, Ohio, 
and his son-in-law Richard Lindhorst, of Stillwater.

In lieu of flowers, the family encourages friends to hug their families,
 tell a joke to a stranger in line at the grocery store, and make 
donations in his name to Habitat for Humanity. Condolences may be sent to the family and an online obituary viewed by visiting www.strodefh.com.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;

Dr. Kelvin “Tod” Kerstetter of Manhattan, KS passed away at the age of 
58 on July 12 at Stormont Vail Hospital in Topeka. Tod battled 
pancreatic cancer valiantly for 22 months. Full of love for his family 
and passion for his music, he maintained his belief that he was going to
 live a long full life with and for his family. During this battle, he 
continued to teach clarinet at Kansas State University, served as 
treasurer for the International Clarinet Association, and created 
YouTube videos where he performed many of his clarinet arrangements 
including Bohemian Rhapsody (and joking with his children that since he 
had 81 followers he should sell “merch”). Be sure to look him up on 
YouTube and “follow” him. He’ll be laughing in heaven over that. 
Tod was born in 1963 in Hays, Kansas, to Elizabeth (Edwards) and Rex 
Kerstetter. After Tod’s father earned his doctorate at Florida State 
University, his family moved from Tallahassee, Florida to Greenville, SC
 where Tod spent most of his childhood and young adulthood. Tod was an 
all-state clarinetist, was awarded the John Philip Sousa Award, and was 
valedictorian of his class at Berea High School. He earned a B.M. from 
Furman University (Greenville, SC), an M.M. from Indiana University, and
 a D.M.A. from the University of Georgia. 
Tod and his wife first met when Tod was playing saxophone on the street 
in Aspen, Colorado, to earn tips. A friend told them that they were both
 going to Indiana University the following fall, and Jackie thought to 
herself, “I’m going to pursue him at IU.” When at IU, Jackie had already
 decided after a week of friendship with Tod, that she was going to 
marry him. It took Tod a bit more time to figure that out, but he came 
to his senses and they were married in 1989. They spent the early years 
of their married life freelancing in orchestras near Greenville, SC and 
teaching part time at Furman University; they then attended University 
of Georgia for their doctoral work; moved to Bowling Green, KY where Tod
 had his first full-time position at Western Kentucky University; and 
then in 1999, they each were offered a tenure-track position in the 
music department at Kansas State University. 
Tod was a loving father, and he thought the world of his sons David (13)
 and Jordan (10). He shared his love of music, plants, and sports with 
his sons, and he enjoyed playing hot wheels and flying RC planes, 
helicopters and drones. Mostly, he shared his love of travel with his 
family, meticulously making vacation plans most summers. One of his 
favorite vacation destinations was Hawaii, where he spent many hours 
snorkeling, swimming and boogie boarding in the ocean, visiting parks 
and other sites, and enjoying Hawaiian culture. 
Tod is survived by his wife Jackie and their sons David and Jordan; by 
his brother Ted, wife Alicia, and child Bella (Madison, AL); his 
mother-in-law, Olga Fassler; and by Jackie’s siblings, Connie and family
 (Albuquerque, NM), Tom (Beijing, China), and Cathy and family 
(Bloomington, IL). He was preceded in death by his mother and father, 
Elizabeth and Rex; and by his father-in-law, Fred Fassler. 
Tod’s K-State family and students were very important to him. Jackie has
 found consolation in reading all of the notes from students and 
friends, and she would like to share these words written by one of his 
former students Rachel Palmberg. These words summarize Tod’s legacy of 
teaching. 
“Words can’t begin to describe what Tod meant to me at K-State, nor the 
weight of his passing. I am grateful to have gotten to know your family 
while I was in Manhattan; even a bit. Tod was the final deciding factor 
that brought me to KSU. I did a campus tour and was feeling overwhelmed 
before ending the day with a lesson with Tod. He made me feel warm and 
welcome straight away. He was one of the most genuine people I know. 
Even as a high school senior, I was drawn not only to his talent and 
knowledge, but to his kindness and empathy. 
‘Tod made me feel seen and known as I navigated my early 20s. Even as it
 became more and more clear I wouldn’t pursue a career in music after 
graduation, he still encouraged me and supported me every step of the 
way. He valued his students as people, not just musicians. He was a 
father figure to so many in his decades as an educator, which deepens 
the weight of his loss. I am grateful not only for the short time I had 
with him, but also for the scores of other lives he touched. I believe 
God used Tod to influence a generation of young adults in the crucial 
time they were growing into who they would become. 
‘His sudden passing is a severe injustice, but drops of his identity 
live on in your family, his colleagues, and his students. That is what I
 am choosing to celebrate between the tears.” 
Tod, we will miss you deeply, but are filled with joy that your legacy 
lives on through your family, friends, students, music recordings, and 
YouTube clips. 
We are grateful for the Via Christi ER staff that helped Tod on the 
night of July 3 and to all of the staff at Stormont Vail who helped him 
after that. Because of you, Tod and Jackie were able to celebrate their 
32nd anniversary before he passed. We are also incredibly thankful for 
all the doctors and nurses who treated Tod at the Cancer Center of KS in
 Manhattan, at KU Med, and especially Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN. 
Thank you all for your incredible care and compassion and for the extra 
months we had with Tod. 
Tod’s Celebration of Life will be on September 4, 2021, at 2:00 PM in All
 Faiths Chapel, Kansas State University, Manhattan, KS. A memorial 
concert by his students will occur at 3:00 PM in All Faiths Chapel on 
September 5, 2021. 
Memorial contributions may be made out to the KSU Foundation for the 
“Tod Kerstetter Memorial Fund, M 47365.” Contributions may be left in 
care of Yorgensen-Meloan-Londeen Funeral Home, 1616 Poyntz Ave., 
Manhattan, KS, 66502, or sent directly to the KSU Foundation, 1800 
Kimball Ave, Suite 200, Manhattan, KS 66502.

Dr. Kelvin 'Tod' Kerstetter

Meryl Elmer Grosshans, 82, of Minneapolis passed away peacefully Tuesday, August 31, 2021.

Meryl was
 born May 21, 1939, to Elmer and Clara Grosshans in the family farmhouse
 near Ruskin, Neb.&nbsp; As a toddler, Meryl’s family moved to Scott City, 
Kan., where he spent his formative years.&nbsp; He graduated from Scott City 
High School in 1957 and received a bachelor’s degree in history from 
Fort Hays State University in 1962.&nbsp;

While at 
FHSU, he met and fell in love with Patricia Ann “Pat” Scheck, and the 
two were united in marriage on August 25, 1962. He spent 43 years 
teaching middle school and high school students in Bunker Hill 
(1963-65), Garden City (1967-68) and for USD 239 (1965-67, 1968-2008).&nbsp; 
Meryl taught students, then their children, and then the grandchildren 
of his first students.

It was 
during his first teaching job in Bunker Hill that he was asked to teach 
French because of his three semesters of French in college.&nbsp; He told his
 class of five girls that he would be learning right along with them and
 ended up discovering a love of foreign language.&nbsp;

Meryl 
completed two French immersion programs through the government-based 
National Defense Education Act (NDEA), first studying at Oakland 
University in Pontiac, Michigan, in 1968 and in France, in 1969.&nbsp; He 
earned a Master’s Degree in French from Emporia State University in 
1970.

His 
school days were filled teaching United States history and government, 
current events, English, French and Spanish.&nbsp; He also served as high 
school principal for five years before returning to the classroom in 
order to spend more hands-on time with students.&nbsp; After his “retirement”
 in 1995, he spent the next 13 years teaching high school French and 
Spanish on a part-time basis.&nbsp; He also volunteered to teach foreign 
language to area pre-school children and adults.&nbsp; Monsieur Grosshans, or
 Señor Grosshans to some, took great pleasure in seeing students light 
up when an idea “clicked.”&nbsp; He was selected as one of Teen Ink’s 
Teachers of the Year for 2001-2002 and was inducted into the Kansas 
Teachers Hall of Fame in 2002.

He was 
passionate about learning at every opportunity.&nbsp; A favorite family story
 is when one of his young granddaughters realized she was actually 
learning when she thought she was simply playing with Grandpa.&nbsp; She 
threw up her hands and said, “Everything with Grandpa is learn, learn, 
learn!”&nbsp; He always chuckled when that story was retold.&nbsp;

Meryl 
enjoyed anything to do with sports, whether it be as a spectator, player
 or coach.&nbsp; He was a member of an undefeated Scott City High School 
football team and played semi-pro baseball as a young adult. He also 
spent many years playing recreational basketball and fast-pitch 
softball.&nbsp; There were also countless hours of backyard baseball and 
football games with his children that neighbors would enjoy as they 
drove by the house. His kids would tease him during road trips when 
everyone in the car would be forced to listen to whatever sporting event
 he could find on the radio, whether it was coming in clearly or not! He
 spent many years as the Director of the Ottawa County Recreation 
Commission, as well as the Athletic Director for Minneapolis High 
School.&nbsp; In addition, he devoted countless hours to coaching baseball in
 the summer.&nbsp; He also volunteered as an assistant baseball coach as MHS 
launched its baseball program.

Meryl 
loved history, a good book, playing cards, crossword puzzles and 
dancing.&nbsp; After the kids were out of the house, he and Pat spent many 
years country dancing and would arrange their schedule so as not to miss
 Friday night outings at the dance club.&nbsp; They also participated in a 
group that would entertain at rest homes and various events in the 
area.&nbsp; He loved adding a little extra pizzazz to his moves on the dance 
floor when his family and friends were there to watch!

More than
 anything, Meryl enjoyed being a father.&nbsp; His two children - Alan and 
Lora - were blessed to have such a supportive and loving dad.&nbsp; He was 
always at their concerts, in the stands, asking about their day and 
picking them up when they needed a lift.&nbsp; His grandchildren always 
received the same affection.

He was a 
faithful member of the Immaculate Conception Catholic Church for more 
than 55 years, where he served as a lector, usher and then altar server 
when he was able to attend daily Mass during retirement. &nbsp;&nbsp;

Meryl was preceded in death by his parents and three siblings who died in childhood.&nbsp;

He is 
survived by Pat, his wife of 59 years; two children; Alan (Tracy) of 
Aurora, CO, and Lora (Alan) Woolever of Kansas City, MO; four adoring 
grandchildren, Delanee, Camryn and Kendall Grosshans and Andrew 
Woolever; sister Iona “Onie” Grosshans of Salt Lake City, UT, and 
brother James (Karen) Grosshans of Sidney, NE.

Visitation
 will be Friday, September 3 from 2:00 P.M. to 7:00 P.M. at Wilson 
Family Funeral Home, where the family will receive friends from 5:00 to 
7:00 P.M. &nbsp;Mass of Christian Burial will be at 11:00 A.M., Saturday, 
September 4 at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church and burial will 
follow in Highland Cemetery.&nbsp; The family is requesting masks to be worn at all events.&nbsp;


 In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to the Minneapolis Public 
Library, Immaculate Conception Catholic Church or the Minneapolis 
Community Foundation.&nbsp; The memorials may be mailed to the Wilson Funeral
 Home, P.O. Box 166, Minneapolis, KS 67467.
