Mary Anna Ullrich, an amazingly strong woman with a loving heart, passed away on Saturday, April 18, 2020 in Lawrence, Kansas. &nbsp;

She grew up on a farm just east of Goodland, Kansas with her brothers Bill, Norman, and sister Ada in the time of the Dust Bowl and the Depression.&nbsp; When she was a small child, her family loaded up in the Model T and drove on dirt highways and roads from Goodland to Canada to visit relatives.&nbsp; What an endeavor that must have been. &nbsp;

Mary Anna had the most beautiful handwriting and when she was in grade school, her penmanship was used by the high school to show students what good writing skills could be attained by a dedicated mind.&nbsp; She learned to fly an airplane at the Goodland airport. &nbsp; That is how she met Robert Ullrich and they married on June 2nd, 1945.&nbsp; Mary Anna brought into the world and raised seven children on a farm southwest of Colby, Kansas.&nbsp; She worked hard to provide for her family and protected her children without smothering them. &nbsp;

Mary Anna did everything including repairing equipment, gardening, sewing clothes, milking the cows, raising chickens and all other tasks too numerous to list.&nbsp; She cared deeply for all the farm animals, enjoyed hobbies such as photography, arranging floral decorations, and other artistic projects.&nbsp; One of Mary Anna’s greatest qualities was her perseverance.&nbsp; She pressed on when the mountains seemed so high and impossible to cross over.&nbsp; As a grandmother, she was patient, kind, and loving.&nbsp; She always had food on the table for snacking and looked forward to cooking her family’s next meal.&nbsp; She was always the happiest when her family was together.

Mary Anna was preceded in death by her husband, Robert, her parents, Henry and Rose Sandy, her siblings, Ada Taylor and Bill Sandy, and nephew, Buddy Thorpe. &nbsp;

Dorothy “Dottie” Anna (Dreher) Schmidt, 92, died on April 20, 2020, 
at the University of Kansas Health System – Great Bend Campus. Dorothy 
“Dottie” was born November 19, 1927, in Rush County, to Phillip P. and 
Mary (Herrman) Dreher. She was the third oldest of 7 children. Dorothy 
married Leo J. Schmidt on January 13, 1947, in St. Anthony Catholic 
Church in Schoenchen. He preceded her in death on July 13, 2014.

After her marriage, Dorothy moved to Great Bend, and this is where 
she and Leo raised their family. Faith was a big part of her life; she 
attended services regularly at St. Patrick Catholic Church. She was a 
homemaker, doting on her husband and children. She was a terrific German
 cook, making most things from scratch. Her family loved her homemade 
bierocks, golari, kuchen, pies, and cakes to name a few. She was known 
for making homemade noodles by laying sheets on every flat surface in 
the house and her children helped by running the noodle dough through 
her trusty noodle maker and flipping the noodles while they were drying.
 Dorothy made dozens of cookies each Christmas and her children were 
sent to deliver boxes of cookies to their neighbors. She also canned 
cucumbers, tomatoes, and made homemade jellies.

Dorothy took up golf later in life and enjoyed playing with her 
family and friends. She didn’t hit far, but always straight as an arrow –
 like she lived. She attended hundreds of sporting events, maybe 
thousands. She traveled, visiting her children and took trips with 
friends to see Niagra Falls and other places. She also enjoyed playing 
bingo with her friends and daughters, even taking road trips to 
Oklahoma. She was proud of her family and all their accomplishments. 
Dottie spent her last years at Riverbend Assisted Living Center where 
the caring staff and residents became her second family.&nbsp;

Surviving are her six children, Dianna Koerner of Hays, George 
Schmidt (Sallie) of Fort Smith, Ark., Karen Harper (Steve) of Goodyear, 
Ariz., Mike Schmidt (Debbie) of Timnath, Colo., Patricia “Trish” Schartz
 of Great Bend (fiancé Nathan McDonald of Ness City, and Joan Barrett 
(Jeff) of Charlotte, NC; twelve grandchildren; fifteen great 
grandchildren; three great great grandchildren; and one sister, Almita 
Augustine of Salina. She was preceded in death by her parents; two 
brothers, Julius Dreher, and C.J. Dreher; and three sisters, Alice Orth,
 Thelma Karlin, and Darlene Leiker.

Visitation will be held from 3:00 to 9:00 p.m., Thursday, April 23,

Calvin E. Harbin, 104, Hays, passed away on April 19, 2020 at his home in Hays, Kansas.

He was born March 26, 1916 in Puxico, 
Missouri, the son of Samuel and Ada (Shelton) Harbin.&nbsp; Calvin grew up on
 the farm and while in his senior year of high school in 1934, he was a 
substitute teacher for the sixth grade class of Kinder Rural School.&nbsp; He
 also attended Southeast Missouri College at the same time. &nbsp;In 1937, 
Calvin moved to California as a law student, and eventually purchased 
the law firm he was working at from his mentor Judge William S. Marks.&nbsp; 
In July of 1941, Calvin volunteered for military service in the United 
States Army, and was sent to Officer Candidate School.&nbsp; In 1943, he was 
commissioned as a Second Lieutenant and recruited for a special mission 
unit.&nbsp; Starting in 1944, Calvin took seven trips across the Atlantic 
Ocean, and on one of the missions his ship was torpedoed on Thanksgiving
 Day.&nbsp; Luckily he was one of the survivors.&nbsp; On June 26, 1947, he was 
united in marriage to Dorothy Comoh at St. Mary’s Catholic Greek Rite 
Church in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, and they celebrated 66 years of 
marriage before she preceded him in death on June 26, 2013.&nbsp;

Calvin later went on to earn his 
Master’s Degree at Nashville’s Peabody College and his Doctorate at the 
University of Missouri.&nbsp; In 1952, he and his family moved to Hays to 
begin a one-year teaching position at Fort Hays State University, which 
ended up as a 30-year career because he enjoyed both the town and 
university.&nbsp; His career consisted of being the Dean of Education and the
 very first Special Assistant to the President.&nbsp; He took a sabbatical 
leave in 1963, and while on leave at Harvard University, he authored his
 first book, Teaching Power.&nbsp; The publisher deemed it a book of lasting 
value.&nbsp; Calvin retired from Fort Hays State University in 1998, and 
continued serving the Dane G. Hansen Foundation in Logan, where he 
authored his second book, The Grandest Mission on Earth.&nbsp;

Calvin served as a teacher, a law 
counselor, an author of poems, hymns, articles, and books, and retired 
as a Colonel in the United States Army.&nbsp; He enjoyed gardening, kept his 
mind busy and sharp, and will be remembered for helping start the Hays 
Senior Service Center and the Senior Companion Program, but mostly for 
loving his family.&nbsp; He lived for his family and grandchildren, and was 
very proud of the care his son gave him in the later years of his life.

Survivors include a son; Ed Harbin 
(Terri Lenser) of Hays, two daughters; Mary Solecki of Olathe and Ruth 
Harbin Miles (Sam) of Madison, WV, seven grandchildren; Paul Solecki 
(Ankica, Kevin Solecki (Kara, John Solecki (Amy, Patrick Solecki, 
Jeremy Harbin, Jill Davis, and James Harbin (Theresa, and eight great 
grandchildren; Braden Davis, Riley Davis, Logan Calvin Davis, Emily 
Davis, Calvin West Harbin, Colton Harbin, Clara Solecki, and Joseph 
Calvin Solecki.

He was preceded in death by his 
parents, his wife; Dorothy, six brothers; James “Jimmy”, George, Joseph,
 Ellis, Wayne, and David Harbin, and two sisters; Ruth Olmstead and Ella
 Robertson.

A private family burial with military 
honors by the Hays VFW Post #9076 Honor Guard will be in St. Joseph 
Cemetery.&nbsp; A public celebration of Calvin’s life will be scheduled and 
announced at a later date.&nbsp; Memorials are suggested to Hospice of 
HaysMed or to the Senior Companion/Foster Grandparent Program, in care 
of Hays Memorial Chapel Funeral, 1906 Pine Street, Hays.&nbsp; Condolences 
and memories of Calvin may be shared with the family at
