Donald “Don” Wayne Hull, age 84, of Omaha, NE died Wednesday, January 6th at Methodist Hospital in Omaha.

Don Hull was born February 2nd, 1936, in Lincoln, Kansas, and while he lived in many small Kansas towns during his childhood, he spent from 8th
 grade until High School Graduation in Waldo, Kansas.&nbsp; He graduated from
 High School in 1954, and married his High School sweetheart, Wanda Kay 
Ward, on August 7th, 1955.&nbsp; Don and Wanda were married at the
 Waldo KS United Methodist Church and remained married until the end, 
with over 65 years together.

He continued his education at Fort Hays State in Hays, KS, 
receiving a Bachelors Degree with a Major in Mathematics, and a Minor in
 Shop.&nbsp; He taught briefly in the small Kansas towns of Bloom and Waldo.&nbsp;
 He then moved to Albion, NE to teach and coach football for a few 
years, but spent the bulk of his career in Columbus, NE, teaching and 
coaching various sports, along with teaching Driver’s Education during 
summers for over 20 years.&nbsp; While teaching in Columbus, he earned his 
Master’s Degree in Mathematics from the University of Nebraska.&nbsp; After 
retiring from teaching in Columbus, he spent 5 years working at 
Becton-Dickinson in Columbus before really retiring to Rogers, AR. There
 he spent his time fishing for bass in Beaver Lake with the Dirty Twenty
 Fishing club, worked on wood projects with the Wood Chuck club, and 
joined the local Masons, as well as participating in many social card 
clubs.

Don was also interested in sports, reading, camping, gardening, and 
home remodeling for him and his wife, as well as his children.&nbsp; One of 
his granddaughters put it best:&nbsp; “…the world feels a little emptier 
today because the best man I have ever known has left it.”

Karla Dawn (Hull) Faucher of Omaha, Nebraska and Terri Kay (Hull) Smith 
of Mesquite, Texas; four granddaughters, Lisa Marie, Jennifer Leigh,

farmed near Whiting, KS. In 1952, her parents purchased a far NW of

Glenda’s schooling began in the 1st grade and she clearly remembered 
riding the school bus, which occasionally got stuck in the mud. She 
graduated high school in 1965, having been active in choir and 4-H. 
Following high school, she attended Colby Community College part time

in worship and bible study. She also belonged to “After Five”, a 
Christian women’s group and the local Business Professional Women’s 
organization. Her greatest bible study work was completing the Menninger

blessed with many friends and activities until her passing, on January 
13, 2021, at the age of 73. Glenda was a treasure to all who knew her. 
Her family was very important to her and in return, they loved her very 
much. She had a strong faith in Jesus Christ and was a gentle and sweet

Daryl met Vonia Oyler in the fall of 1978 and they married on June 2,

 extended beyond the normal hours. He always provided for his family, 
often working extra hours to ensure his family had what they needed and 
wanted.&nbsp; Daryl took pride in his hard work and all that he 
accomplished.&nbsp;

His hobby was his work, but when it came to his grandchildren, they 
were the priority.&nbsp; As a grandfather, he would drop everything and move 
heaven and earth for them.&nbsp; He loved spending time with them and would 
go out of his way to stop by and see them.&nbsp; Teaching them to drive for 
which he bought them a golf cart, rides on the combine and tractors, and
 trips for toys.&nbsp; He was willing to pick them up and help take care of 
them at a moment’s notice.&nbsp; He was also known to have candy stashes in 
his pickup and by his chair just to spoil his grandkids.

Daryl belonged to the American Legion of Copeland, the National Rifle Association and Pheasants Forever.
