Robert Forrest “Bob” Gantz was born May 26, 1925, and died at Ness 
County Hospital on July 23, 2020.&nbsp; He was the son of Ernest and Fayne 
Bondurant Gantz.&nbsp; Survivors are Paula Gantz Ripple and David, Ann Gantz 
Matz and Kurt, Gary and Jodi Gantz; grandchildren Shelley Ripple 
Woodworth, Jacob Ripple, Zachary Matz, Cody Matz, Wade Gantz, Colby 
Gantz, and Dalton Gantz; cousin Gordon Holloway, niece Paige Gantz 
Farrell; and five great grandchildren.&nbsp; He was preceded in death by his 
wife Jan, his brother Jack and his wife Yvonne, and his nephew Scott 
Gantz.&nbsp;

Upon graduation from Ness City High School in 1943, Bob entered the 
Army Air Corps; he trained and flew as a navigator in a B-24 bomber 
unt­­­­­­il the end of World War II when he was discharged. After the 
war, he enrolled in Kansas State University as a business major, 
graduating cum laude in 1950, and returning to Ness City to join his 
mother in operating D. E. Bondurant Grain, thus continuing the business 
begun by his grandfather Daniel E. Bondurant in 1888.&nbsp; Later his brother
 Jack joined the operation, and it remains in the family today.

Bob’s passion for hunting took him on countless pheasant hunts and 
treks to hunt for deer and elk.&nbsp; He also collected old Winchesters and 
other firearms.&nbsp; Bob read voraciously throughout his life: newspapers, 
history, business news, Westerns, and all things concerning western 
history. His interest in Western Kansas settlement history was kindled 
from relationships with “old timers,” and he often visited with his 
grandfather Daniel Bondurant, Mary Beardslee, Grace Beardslee, and many 
Ness Countians, piecing together stories of early Ness County. This 
knowledge of Ness County history was the impetus for much of his wife 
Jan’s historical writing.&nbsp;

Always participating in the Ness City community, Bob’s activities and
 support ranged from sports to organizations.&nbsp; He was the second Eagle 
Scout in Ness City, then became a Boy Scout leader and long-time 
supporter. Early on Bob played softball on a city team sponsored by 
Harold Dean “Irish” Gabel; he was in Rotary and served as President; he 
was on the board of the First State Bank; he supported and promoted 
Arrowhead West, the Ness County Bank Building, the Ness City Public 
Library, the Ness County Fair, and Old Settler’s Reunions.&nbsp; In addition,
 he always remained an avid supporter of his alma mater, Kansas State 
University. Bob was a member of the Odd Fellows, The American Legion (in
 March he received his 75-year pin), the National Rifle Association, the
 Kansas State Rifle Association, the Winchester Arms Collector 
Association, the Ness County Historical Society, the Little Big Horn 
Association.

Bob was a career-long member of the Kansas Grain and Feed 
Association, serving as board member and two-term Chairman of the KGFA 
from 1959 to 1964.&nbsp; In 2007 the association honored him with the 
Sunflower Award, the Kansas grain industry’s highest honor.

A graveside service will be held at the Ness City Cemetery at 10:00 
a.m. on Tuesday, July 28.&nbsp; Viewing will be on Monday from to 2:00 p.m. 
to 9:00 p.m. with family present from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. at 
Fitzgerald Funeral Home.

Memorial contributions may be given to the Ness County Bank Building,
 the Ness City Public Library, or the Kansas Grain and Feed Association 
Scholarship Fund.

Dr. Willis "Bill" Lloyd Funk, 91, of Oakley, KS, died Friday, July 24, 
2020, at Citizens Medical Center, Colby. 

He was born on October 2, 1928,
 in Abilene, KS, to Adolf and Olga (Weinbrenner) Funk. Bill spent his 
youth working in his father’s creamery, graduated from Hope High School,
 and served in the United States Army from 1946-1948. He graduated from 
Kansas Wesleyan University, Salina, KS in 1952 and from the School of 
Dentistry of the University of Kansas City in 1956. 

Bill married 
Shirley Davis on June 20,1954, on a Sunday hot enough to melt the 
candles! Bill and Shirley moved to Oakley in 1956, where he practiced 
dentistry for 33 years until retiring in 1989. Dr. Funk served on the 
Logan County Hospital Board and the Oakley School Board; he was a member
 of the American Dental Association and the Kansas Dental Association. 
He was one of the first Hunter’s Safety instructors in Kansas, a Cub 
Scout Den Master, and a participant in the inaugural annual Annie Oakley
 golf tournament and in 40 of the next 43 tournaments. He was diagnosed 
with insulin dependent diabetes at age 35 and was a role model for his 
physicians due to his diligent disease management, which prevented many 
common diabetic complications. Bill was an active outdoorsman who 
enjoyed hunting pheasant, fishing, and gardening for many years. After 
he retired from an esteemed dental career, his life was filled with 
attending grandchildren’s activities, taking cruises with his wife, 
square and swing dancing, and baking countless batches of cookies. 
He was preceded in death by his parents. 
He is survived by his wife, Shirley, of Oakley; children, Doug (Kathy) 
Funk, Lawrence; Terri (Chris) Albers, Oakley; Susan (David) Molstad,

Stanley Raymond Weeks, 77, of Sharon Springs, KS, lost his fight with cancer on July 13, 2020.&nbsp;

Stan entered this world on March 26, 1943, in Laconia, NH, born to Leslie and Blanche Weeks. He proudly served in the United States Army during the Vietnam War, receiving special commendations in marksmanship.

His spirit of adventure led him across the country, where he eventually settled in western Kansas. During his lifetime, his jobs were as varied as his interests. He flew planes, managed a restaurant, drove truck, and more. He loved putting miles on his Harley, cooking, working in his garage and keeping up with his grandkids. He never met a stranger and loved drinking coffee and having long conversations with friends and family.&nbsp;

He loved his family and was a devoted Papa. He never hesitated to travel many miles to attend the various school events of his grandchildren – or just cook them blueberry muffins for breakfast.

Stan was preceded in death by his parents, Leslie and Blanche. He is survived by his four children, Leslie Fry and her husband Russell; Ray Weeks and his fiancée Natalie; Courtney Warden and her husband Dylan; and Diane Bean and her husband John. He has eight beloved grandchildren, including Ethan, Sam and Will Fry, Atticus Weeks, Beau and Kylie Warden and Sarah and Seth Holt. His surviving siblings include Jean Weeks, Brenda Moore and Phil Weeks.&nbsp;

There will be a small military funeral Thursday, August 6, 2020, at 10 AM CST in the Kansas Veterans Cemetery in Wakeeney, followed by a come-and-go Celebration of Life from 5-7 PM MST at the CAB Building in Sharon Springs.&nbsp;

Memorials contributions can be made to the Wallace County VFW 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>.

Koons-Russell Funeral Home in Sharon Springs was entrusted with arrangements.
