Florina M. 'Flo' Beilman

Carol Lynn Albertson was born July 29, 1932, at St. Anthony’s Hospital in Hays, Kansas, to Henry and Amelia Albertson. 
 Carol had a close, affectionate relationship with her parents. She 
was very proud that Henry served in World War I under Captain Harry S. 
Truman and that he was the Graham County Magistrate Judge for 20 years. 
Amelia (Millie) was a loving mother who also served as Carol’s teacher 
at Glendale, a one-room schoolhouse near Hill City. Carol was very 
dedicated to taking care of Amelia as she aged, visiting her daily while
 she resided at Dawson Place. 
 As Carol was growing up, Curtis, her older brother by four years, 
loved looking out for her. They formed a great bond. Through the years 
she enjoyed visiting him in Tucson. At the age of 14, Carol met Allen 
Trexler while making sodas at the local drugstore. He began walking her 
home and they dated off and on for the next five years. They became 
engaged while attending Fort Hays State College. Carol and Curtis lived 
with their aunt and uncle, Fred and Ruby Albertson, while they attended 
college. Fred was a professor at Fort Hays and the Albertson Hall on 
campus was named in honor of him. 
 Allen and Carol were married February 17, 1952, in Hill City. With 
the help of Allen’s grandfather, they built a home four miles north of 
town later that year. Allen had begun farming with his dad and grandad. 
He was also working at the local grocery store owned by his parents, the
 Trexler Store. Carol worked for F&amp;M Bank, Kansas-Nebraska Gas 
Company and was a loan clerk for USDA. 
 In 1954, their first child Bradley Allen was born. Their daughter, 
Alynn Renee, arrived in 1958 to complete the family. Carol was active in
 the United Methodist Church, where she and her friend Loree began the 
tradition of the church bazaar. Carol liked helping her children with 
4-H projects, cooking, baking, listening to Lynn sing and watching 
Brad’s sports activities. 
 She especially enjoyed attending Lynn’s band gigs and listening to 
Brad speak while he served as the Kansas State FFA President. Carol also
 enjoyed working part-time at the Fashion Center and at a local floral 
shop. 
 In 1976, Carol was chosen as the most beautiful, naturally 
gray-haired woman in a nationwide search. She was flown to Chicago and 
photographed there. The portrait on this program was hung in beauty 
shops all over the world. Allen remembers seeing her photo in a mall in 
Montreal when they traveled to New England and Canada in the fall of 
that same year. 
 One of Carol’s greatest joys was being a grandmother to Meredith, 
Brittney, Gabe, and Keali. She always had a collection of bears ready 
for tea parties and loved baking with her granddaughters. Her signature 
dessert was her famous homemade apple pie. Her home was always open for 
sleepovers and she also had great memories of hosting many family 
holidays. She and Allen loved attending horse shows as Meredith and 
Brittney grew up. One summer they followed Brad, Kim, and the girls to 
32 locations, never missing a moment! 
 Over the last few years, Carol enjoyed spending time with her 
great-grandchildren: Blakeli, Briggs, Myles, and Marli. She also looked 
forward to family dinners at Kim’s house on the farm and on Jeff and 
Meredith’s deck. She and Allen made short road trips to Norton to share 
meals with Ty and Lynn as well. 
 February 17, 2021, Carol and Allen celebrated their 69th wedding 
anniversary. Four days later, February 22, 2021, she departed this earth
 in Hill City. Carol was preceded in death by her parents Henry and 
Amelia Albertson; her brother, Curtis Albertson; and her son, Bradley 
Trexler. Carol is survived by her husband, Allen Trexler, Hill City; 
daughter, Alynn (Ty) Bruton, Norton; daughter-in-law, Kim Trexler, Hill 
City; grandchildren: Meredith (Jeff) Drees, Hill City, Brittney (Jerad) 
Johnson, Colby, Gabe Bruton, Scottsbluff, Nebraska, Keali Bruton, 
Norton; and eight great-grandchildren.

Berny Lee Bailey

Wanda Ann (Kemper) Huntington, 50, passed away on December 31, 2020, at the Kansas University Medical Center in Kansas City, KS.

She is survived by her parents, Gary and Ellen Kemper of 
Phillipsburg, KS; sister Brenda Maeske (Jim Klavis) of Chantilly, VA; 
sons David of Hays, KS and Shawn of Minneapolis, KS; nieces Jessica 
(Michael) Stone of Reston, VA and Alexandra Spittle (James Sorokos) of 
Norfolk, Virginia; sisters-in-law Sharon (Lloyd) Sandlin and Shelly 
Derting of Minneapolis, KS; uncle Marvin Gaines of Logan, KS and many 
cousins.

Wanda was a free-spirit who loved her family and friends. She read 
her bible every day and had a relationship with the lord. She listened 
to gospel music and attended religious services either in-person or by 
watching on television. She also loved to watch football and was a big 
fan of the Kansas City Chiefs.

For the past four years, Wanda lived in Winfield, KS in ResCare 
Residential Services. She lived with her roommate and had many friends 
in Winfield including her case manager Christina Pack; whom she fired 
almost on a daily basis. You were Wanda's friend until you made her mad 
and then you weren't however she had the innate ability to easily 
forgive.

Just before her death Wanda moved into shared living with Katie 
Jordan and her two children. She enjoyed playing with the kids and was 
excited about her future. Wanda went on vacation with Katie and the kids
 to South Padre Island, TX and saw the ocean for the very first time. 
While on vacation she held a baby alligator; she was fearless that way. 
She really did love adventures and seeing new things.

Her sister remembers Wanda as a caring and loving person who never 
met a stranger. Brenda wants everyone to know that Wanda was not just 
her sister but her best friend. &nbsp;“A Little bit of my sister will always 
live in me. Rest in peace Wanda, you'll always be in my heart".

She was taken from us too soon, but our heavenly father had a greater plan. She will be greatly missed by all.

A memorial service for Wanda will be held at 10:30 a.m. Friday, March
 5, 2021 at the Olliff-Boeve Memorial Chapel, Phillipsburg, with Pastor 
Joel Hiesterman officiating. &nbsp;The services will be streamed live on the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/category/Funeral-Service---Cemetery/Olliff-Boeve-Memorial-Chapel-158648587502325/">Olliff-Boeve Memorial Chapel Facebook page.</a>&nbsp; &nbsp;A private inurnment will take place in the Pleasant View Cemetery, Logan, KS.

Janna Constable

Edward J. Brummer passed away on Saturday, February 20, 2021, at the 
Solomon Valley Manor in Stockton, Kansas at the age of 88. He was born 
to John and Katherine (Simeon) Brummer on January 7, 1933, in Osborne 
County, Kansas. Edward married Bertha Hays on October 26, 1963, in 
Osborne, Kansas, and they were blessed with six children: Jill, Edward 
“Eddie”, Jennifer, Connie, Jeanette, and Elizabeth.
 Edward grew up in rural Osborne where he attended school until 8th 
grade. He then went to work for the Santa Fe Railroad before he was 
drafted into the United States Army. Following his honorable discharge 
from the service he returned home and worked as a mechanic at his own 
shop from 1965 until 2017 when he retired. 
 A true “car guy”, Edward loved everything about cars. Fixing them, 
driving them, collecting them, and teaching others to do the same. He 
not only loved working on his own cars, but also on cars for other 
people and visiting with his customers. He taught all his kids how to 
change the oil and a flat tire at the very least before they left home. 
So many memories were built around cars; they were like friends to him 
as he kept every single one of them. Interestingly enough, he stopped 
buying them in the 70’s as he would say, “plastic had no place on a 
car!” Although his 1960 Corvette was arguably his most prized 
possession, it didn’t hold a candle to his family, especially his 
grandkids. Edward made sure that he took vacation time with his family 
every year and taught one of his grandsons, Dalton, to play the guitar. 
 A hard-working, loving and dedicated family man of God, Edward loved
 the simple life, recognized his blessings, and didn’t take time for 
granted. Although he will be greatly missed by all who knew him, his 
love and invaluable 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 are his children; Jill (Mike) Roth of 
Savannah, MO, Edward “Eddie” (Nancy) Brummer of Natoma, KS, Jennifer 
Brummer of Plainville, KS, Connie Brummer (Tracy) of Stockton, Jeannette
 (Jason) Miller of Olathe, KS, and Elizabeth (Jarrod) Selenke of Peyton,
 CO; nine grandchildren, Amber, Aja, Dalton, Hunter, Gavin, Joslyn, Liz,
 Joe, and Kris; and six great-grandchildren, Piper, Taron, Garrett, 
Gabriella, Greyson, and Gracianna.
 He is joined in Heaven by his parents, John and Katherine Brummer; 
wife, Bertha Brummer; brothers, John, Leo, Bob, Joseph, and Al Brummer; 
sisters, Amelia Landry, Mary Payton, Alberta King, Roberta Brummer, 
Maxine Brummer, and Eldora Stroh; and grandchildren Eric Ouse, and Allen
 and Austin Wolf.
 A Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Wednesday, February 24, 
2021 at 10:30 AM at the St. Thomas Catholic Church in Stockton. 
Visitation will be held on Tuesday, from 2PM until 8PM with a Vigil 
starting at 7PM at the funeral home.
 In lieu of flowers the family has asked memorials to go to St. 
Thomas Catholic Church or Solomon Valley Manor and may be sent in care 
of Plumer-Overlease Funeral Home, 723 N First, Stockton, KS 67669.
