Norman Sander Sr.

How do you put 95 years of living into a few paragraphs?&nbsp; Grammie was such a kind, selfless lady…but all of you that knew her already knew this.

Dolores Basgall was born on March 19, 1925 to Alex Basgall and Mary Urban at the Basgall farm southeast of Wallace, Kansas.&nbsp; She was the 4th child out of 10 children: Gene, Edwin, Willie, Bert, Norbie, Juanita, twins George and Margaret, and Bernice.&nbsp; She attended the Gill School east of their farm and later attended school in Wallace, Kansas.&nbsp; Her high school graduating class was the last class in Wallace in 1943.&nbsp; After high school she taught at the Gill School for a short time.

On July 13, 1944 she married her neighbor, Leo Bussen.&nbsp; Together they had 6 children: Jim, Butch and twin brother Johnny, Kenan, Trina and Mark.

The first few years of marriage Dolores worked as a housewife.&nbsp; She later worked at Uncle Pete’s Grocery Store and the Wallace Post Office.&nbsp; After her husband died in 1971, she went to work as a teller at the People’s State Bank in Sharon Springs, Kansas and worked there until she retired.&nbsp; Throughout most of these years, she was the City Clerk of Wallace as well.

Dolores was a very strong and active member of St Peter’s Catholic Church in Wallace, Kansas.&nbsp; Later in life, she became a member of the Holy Ghost Church in Sharon Springs, Kansas.&nbsp; She had a strong devotion to Jesus’ mother, Mary.&nbsp; Many Rosaries have been prayed through her lips!

Her family was definitely her greatest blessing.&nbsp; She lived and breathed for her children and more so, her grandchildren, thus came her infamous name, Grammie Dee!&nbsp; Almost everyone that knew her called her Grammie.&nbsp; I think every grandchild was rocked by Grammie with her singing a little song in German.

Dolores never turned away a “stray”, that not meaning cats or dogs, but people.&nbsp; There have been many of young folks that Grammie took under her wing, one special one from New Zealand named Lee.

She had a love for music.&nbsp; She always had her C.D. player or T.V. on with country music playing or was playing the piano.&nbsp; She was heartbroken when her legs became too weak to be able to dance.

Most of our memories will be from Grammie’s house in Wallace.&nbsp; We could pack more people in that little house when Grammie would cook.&nbsp; She was known for her endless pots of coffee, cinnamon rolls, homemade plum jelly and personal pan apple pies.

Her life has had so much love; there is no end to bragging on her.&nbsp; She left this world on October 2, 2020 after dying of natural causes.

Immediate family proceeding her in death are her husband Leo, son Kenan, infant son Johnny and Butch’s wife, Libby.

Dolores is survived by her sister Juanita Wostenberg (her side kick for 90 years) and brother George Basgall.&nbsp; She is also survived by 4 of her children, Jim and wife Penny Bussen, Butch, Trina and husband Ted Smelker, Mark and wife V.K. Bussen, Kenan’s wife Debbie Bussen, 18 grandchildren, 23 great grandchildren and 10 great-great grandchildren.

Grammie, you said you had a lot of questions for Jesus…now you can ask! &nbsp;

Visitation will held on Thursday, October 8, 2020 from 5:00 to 7:00 PM MT at the Holy Ghost Catholic Church in Sharon Springs with a Parish Rosary to begin at 7:00 PM.

A Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Friday, October 9, 2020 at 10:30 AM MT at the Holy Ghost Catholic Church in Sharon Springs with Father David Michael officiating.&nbsp; Interment will follow in the Fort Wallace Cemetery, Wallace, KS.

Memorials may be designated to the Holy Ghost Catholic Church and may be left at the services or mailed to Koons-Russell Funeral Home, 211 N. Main Ave., Goodland, KS 67735.

Online condolences for the family may be left at <a href="http://www.koonsrussellfuneralhome.com">www.koonsrussellfuneralhome.com</a>.

Funeral services have been entrusted to Koons-Russell Funeral Home in Sharon Springs.&nbsp;

Wilbur Eugene "Gene" Evans was born September 10, 1938, the son of Wilbur O. and Viola M. (Holaday) Evans in Hays, KS. He left this world to be in the healing arms of Jesus on October, 2, 2020, at the age of 82.

Gene was raised to manhood on the family farm southeast of Gove, KS in the Missouri Flats area. Gene attended grade school at the East Lone Star country school and Quinter High School graduating in 1957. He then attended Fort Hays State University graduating in 1961 with a Bachelor Degree in Mathematics. After college, he joined his father and brother, Gary, on the family farm and eventually bought his own farm nearby from his Great Uncle, Charles J. Evans.

In April of 1971, he married Marjorie Lea Goldsby of Lenora, KS. To join this union, two daughters were born, Gina Lea and April DeAnn.

Gene was very active in farming, community, and county affairs. He served many years on the Farm Bureau Board and the Gove County 4-H Extension Council. He also served 15 years on the Gove City Council with three years of service as mayor of Gove. Gene has been a member of the Quinter United Methodist Church, the Gove United Methodist Church, and was most recently a member of the Gove Community Bible Church. Gene served as a board member for many years in all three churches as a trustee and on the finance committee. He was named a lifetime elder at the Gove Community Bible Church. Gene’s Cerebral Palsy may have slowed him down at times, but it never stopped him. He won numerous awards in agriculture while in high school and in 4-H. He later was a 4-H Community Leader while his children were involved in the program. A number of 4-H calves from his own herd were sold to youngsters to help them get started. Gene was also considered a mentor to many young farmers as they worked with him.

His wife, children, and grandchildren have always been the light of his life. He loved spending time with his family, mentoring his kids and grandsons, and watching them grow.

Gene and Marjorie retired from the farm in 1998 and moved to Gove. His last few years were spent in the Long-Term Care in Quinter. While there, he was involved in as many activities and projects as possible. Church services and men’s Bible study were very much a priority. His Christian testimony radiated in every way through him. He rededicated his life by choosing to be baptized again at the age of 80.

Surviving are his wife, Marjorie, of the home; two daughters, Gina (John) Price, Rush Center, KS, and April (Travis) Kelso, Sterling, KS; three grandsons, Weston Price, Wilson, KS, Cody (Kaylyn) Price, Overland Park, KS, and Grayson Kelso, Sterling, KS; two brothers, Carl (Cheryl) Evans, Irmo, SC, and Darrel (Kathy) Evans, Quinter, KS; many nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews. Preceding him in death were his parents, a brother, Gary Evans, and a sister-in-law, Sally Evans.

A private service will be held for immediate family only. There will be a public graveside service at 11:00 AM Friday, October 9, 2020, at Gove City Cemetery, masks and social distancing encouraged. The funeral service will be livestreamed on the CBC Facebook page and at govecbc.com.

Leo W. Keller, 97, of Oakley, died Sunday, October 4, 2020 at Logan 
County Senior Living, Oakley. He was born on August 1, 1923, near Mingo,
 KS to David &amp; Sophia (Bush) Keller. He was the 2nd of the 8 
children: Rebecca, Les, Ben, Ruthie, Esther, Daniel and Mary. He was 
raised on a family farm, milking cows, feeding cows and doing regular 
farm work. He attended grade school at the Mingo school until the 8th 
grade, when he was required to quit, due to the health of his dad. 


On April 4, 1944, he married Wanda Nell Curry, in Oakley, KS. To this 
union of 32 years, 4 children were born: Leotta Ranell, Shirley Darnell,
 Fontella Jean, and William Jr. “J.R.”


In January of 1944, Leo was drafted into the Army and served the 76th 
Infantry Division, 417 Regiment 3rd Army and was sent to Germany to 
fight in WWII. He was involved in the Battle of the Bulge and was under 
fire by the Germans and shared cover under a bridge with General Patton.
 His division crossed the Rhine River, fighting toward Frankfort and 
Berlin. He was in Kimnitsch, Germany when the war was declared over. He 
was headed to Japan, but the war ended when the U.S. dropped the bomb on
 Hiroshima. He was sent back to the US. on the Queen Mary and arrived 
back in the states on December 9, 1945. Leo received an Honorable 
Discharge for service to his country. 


After returning from the war, he and Wanda purchased a farm west of Page
 City. Leo partnered with his brothers, Les and Ben, and operated as the
 Keller Brothers in the farming and cattle industries. In 1956, they 
bought the Oakley Livestock Commission Co. and Leo owned and operated it
 until 1973. During this time Leo also operated Keller Cattle Co. and 
continued to be a bonded livestock dealer, buying cattle for several 
different ranchers and big feedlots until 1985. 


In 1967, Leo acquired the headquarters ranch of Foster Lumber Co.’s 
farmstead, north of Bretton. Leo raised cows and calves for 44 years and
 sold his last herd in 2011. His business adventures also led him to 
invest in a land development on the slope of Colorado, in 1971, and it 
has grown into a living community. Among Leo’s greatest pleasures were 
coyote hunting with a pack of dogs, pheasant and quail hunting, and any 
card games that included gambling. 


Leo was baptized and became a member of the Oakley United Methodist 
Church. He was an active member of the Oakley Country Club, Oakley 
Ranger Riders, the VFW and the Hoxie Elks. He served as an officer and 
President of the Kansas Livestock Auction Association and was a member 
of the National Livestock Association.


On November 2, 1977, he married Elizabeth “Betty” Hills, from Colby, KS.
 They had a home in Loghill Village, CO, while maintain a home in 
Oakley. Betty’s children, Craig and Anita Hills, Doug and Junelle Hills 
and Rhonda and Gary Holstein joined the Keller family. Leo had 8 
grandchildren, 10 great grandchildren and 3 great-great grandchildren. 
Betty’s family added another 6 grandchildren and 11 great grandchildren.
