Phyllis (Snyder) Egbert, 100, passed away on Saturday, January 21, 2023,&nbsp; at her daughter’s home in Canyon Lake, Texas. She was born on August 8, 
1922, at Mason City, Iowa the daughter of Carl Ignatius &amp; Laura 
Elizabeth (Lotze) Snyder. She married D. Gilbert Egbert on May 22, 1945,&nbsp; at Mason City. He died on March 29, 2016. 
Her fondest childhood memories include the summers at the cottage, 
boating and sailing at Clear Lake, Iowa. She grew up in the “Pink House”
 in Mason City and cherished her school years at Holy Family School. 
Phyllis graduated Mason City High School, attended Clarke College in 
Dubuque and graduated the University of Colorado in Boulder, a member of
 the Kappa Alpha Theta Sorority and majoring in English. It was there 
that a fellow student caught her eye and following graduation and his 
military service, Phyllis and Gilbert Egbert settled in Dighton in 1947 
to raise their family. 
She had treasured memories of the many family weekends at Cedar Bluff 
and the many station wagon road trips. She enjoyed Bridge Club, PEO and 
the frequent social gatherings. She spent many hours volunteering at the
 kid’s schools and St Theresa Catholic Church. She was preceded in death
 by her husband, Gilbert after almost 71 years of marriage. Also 
preceding her in death were son, Barry Egbert; parents and brother, Ned 
I. Snyder. 
Phyllis and Gilbert were parents to Barry Egbert (deceased), Nancy 
Egbert of Boulder, Tracey (Larry) Brundrett of Canyon Lake, Douglas 
(Mary) Egbert of Jacksonville, IL. and Dave Egbert of Tulsa; and 
grandparents to TJ Tobin and daughter Rilie, Ryan Brundrett (Naomi) and 
children, Amira, Kaylan and Arlo, Allison (Ben) Elder and sons Royal and
 Bishop and Taylor (Laura) Egbert. Her children will say she was their 
biggest fan and advocate. Her motherly advice is well remembered and 
often repeated. We thank her for our legacy and her love. 
Graveside Service will be at 10:30 on Tuesday, February 7th, at Dighton 
Memorial Cemetery with Rev Don Bedore officiating. Mom requested no 
flowers or memorials, just good thoughts and prayers. Donations to St 
Theresa Catholic Church or the Lane County Historical Society in Mom’s 
memory are welcome.

Our beloved mother, grandmother and sister Jenna Rae Garrison 
departed this life Tuesday, January 18, 2023, at the Graham County 
Hospital, Hill City, Kansas. Jenna Rae was born to Clifford and Thelma 
(Cook) Jackson July 16, 1938, on the family farm north of Hill City.

Jenna
 Rae attended grade school at Graham School north of Studley, Mount 
Vernon, Hill City Grade School, and Hill City High. Prior to graduation,
 Jenna Rae became the bride of Delbert Garrison July 31, 1954. Jenna Rae
 and Delbert were married for 51 years before he passed away April 7, 
2005.  To this union five children were born: Lonnie, Bonnie, Robert 
“Bob”, Vicki, and Sherry. Family was very important to Jenna Rae; she 
loved them and only wanted the best for every one of them.

Getting
 married delayed Jenna Rae from earning her high school diploma. In 
1981, Jenna Rae completed GED courses at Colby Community College. The 
family was very proud of her, and she was proud of this accomplishment 
as well.

Jenna Rae’s life and career was a circle of cooking and 
preparing meals. She was a great cook at home, from making the best 
breads, fried chicken, homemade noodles, her pumpkin and apple pies were
 two of the best.  And who could forget her fabulous cinnamon rolls!  
She cooked at Palco High School, Ellinwood Hospital, and the Graham 
County Hospital.  She later worked at the Sewing Nook for Dorothy 
Morphew and as a dispatcher at the Graham County Sheriff’s Department. 
However, the most important job she had was providing daycare for her 
grandchildren while their parents worked.

Jenna 
Rae had a knack for growing plants. Many said she had a green thumb. 
Flowers flourished in her yard. Much of her time was spent in her yard, 
in the flower gardens, and putting bird seed out for her birds. She 
loved watching the birds enjoy the treats and beautiful landscape from 
her kitchen window. In her younger days she loved to fish, but only with
 a cane pole. No rod and reel for this gal! Jenna Rae always seemed to 
keep her hands busy whether it was crocheting doilies or table runners, 
and sewing. Many of these items were gifted to family and friends. Jenna
 Rae also played the piano. She read music but also played by ear. She 
could really tickle those ivories when she played her Honky Tonk 
favorites especially “Down Yonder”.  A favorite getaway of hers was to 
the one-armed bandits at casinos.

Jenna Rae was preceded in death 
by her husband, Delbert; her parents, Clifford and Thelma Jackson; a 
son-in-law, Bernie Kerbaugh; two brothers, Lilbern and Royce Jackson; 
four brothers-in-law: Francis Garrison, Bill Garrison, Darrell Garrison,
 and Doyle Slaven; four sisters-in-law: Donna Peterson, Janice Slaven, 
Mary Jackson and Marie Garrison.

Left to cherish her memory are 
her children: Lonnie (Vera) Garrison, Hill City, Bonnie Kerbaugh, Elk 
City, Oklahoma, Robert “Bob” Garrison, Wichita, Vicki Garrison, Hill 
City, and Sherry (Ken) Seeger, Hill City: six  grandchildren: Bridgette 
(Troy) Ramey, Grinnell, Brett (Angie) Garrison, Hill City, Jacob (Kayla)
 Kerbaugh, Aurora, Colorado; Robyn (Dylan) Harrell, Elk City, Oklahoma, 
Jessica Seeger, Topeka, and Clayton (Alli) Seeger, Greeley, Colorado; 11
 great grandchildren: Paige and Tyler Ramey, Ryleigh, Raygan, Rayden and
 Rentley Garrison, Bernadette “Bernie” Kerbaugh, Jack and Henry Harrell,
 McKennah Seeger and Ofelia Seeger;  brother, LaMoyne “Jake” Jackson, 
Hill City and sister-in-law, Marvalee Garrison, Ness City.

loved them and only wanted the best for every one of them.Getting
 married delayed Jenna Rae from earning her high school diploma. In 
1981, Jenna Rae completed GED courses at Colby Community College. The 
family was very proud of her, and she was proud of this accomplishment 
as well.Jenna Rae’s life and career was a circle of cooking and 
preparing meals. She was a great cook at home, from making the best 
breads, fried chicken, homemade noodles, her pumpkin and apple pies were
 two of the best. And who could forget her fabulous cinnamon rolls! 
She cooked at Palco High School, Ellinwood Hospital, and the Graham 
County Hospital. She later worked at the Sewing Nook for Dorothy 
Morphew and as a dispatcher at the Graham County Sheriff’s Department. 
However, the most important job she had was providing daycare for her 
grandchildren while their parents worked.Jenna 
Rae had a knack for growing plants. Many said she had a green thumb. 
Flowers flourished in her yard. Much of her time was spent in her yard, 
in the flower gardens, and putting bird seed out for her birds. She 
loved watching the birds enjoy the treats and beautiful landscape from 
her kitchen window. In her younger days she loved to fish, but only with
 a cane pole. No rod and reel for this gal! Jenna Rae always seemed to 
keep her hands busy whether it was crocheting doilies or table runners, 
and sewing. Many of these items were gifted to family and friends. Jenna
 Rae also played the piano. She read music but also played by ear. She 
could really tickle those ivories when she played her Honky Tonk 
favorites especially “Down Yonder”. A favorite getaway of hers was to 
the one-armed bandits at casinos.Jenna Rae was preceded in death 
by her husband, Delbert; her parents, Clifford and Thelma Jackson; a 
son-in-law, Bernie Kerbaugh; two brothers, Lilbern and Royce Jackson; 
four brothers-in-law: Francis Garrison, Bill Garrison, Darrell Garrison,
 and Doyle Slaven; four sisters-in-law: Donna Peterson, Janice Slaven, 
Mary Jackson and Marie Garrison.Left to cherish her memory are 
her children: Lonnie (Vera) Garrison, Hill City, Bonnie Kerbaugh, Elk 
City, Oklahoma, Robert “Bob” Garrison, Wichita, Vicki Garrison, Hill 
City, and Sherry (Ken) Seeger, Hill City: six grandchildren: Bridgette 
(Troy) Ramey, Grinnell, Brett (Angie) Garrison, Hill City, Jacob (Kayla)
 Kerbaugh, Aurora, Colorado; Robyn (Dylan) Harrell, Elk City, Oklahoma, 
Jessica Seeger, Topeka, and Clayton (Alli) Seeger, Greeley, Colorado; 11
 great grandchildren: Paige and Tyler Ramey, Ryleigh, Raygan, Rayden and
 Rentley Garrison, Bernadette “Bernie” Kerbaugh, Jack and Henry Harrell,
 McKennah Seeger and Ofelia Seeger; brother, LaMoyne “Jake” Jackson,

Jerald “Jerry” Burkhart, 87, of Gothenburg, Nebraska, died on January
 20, 2023 at Gothenburg Health. Jerry was born to Jerome and Agnes 
Burkhart at his grandmother’s home in rural, southwest Kansas.

&nbsp;Jerry grew up in southwest Kansas on a farm and remembered a little 
about the dirty '30s and how hard they were on his family. As a kid, he 
helped his family in the butcher shop and took great pride in that. In 
high school, he drew up a house plan in his shop and mechanical drawing 
class, and his teacher later used those drawings to design and build a 
house in Lyons, Kansas. Jerry raised his 4 children with his first wife,
 Ruth Burkhart, in Dodge City, KS and enjoyed his 30 years as a Coors 
Beer distributor. He never took a sick day in all those years. After his
 divorce, Jerry was introduced to his second wife, Pat through mutual 
friends. They hit it off and the rest was history! They enjoyed spending
 time with friends and family, cruises, cooking together, time on the 
beach and spoiling their dog, Snow. Jerry loved blessing his friends and
 neighbors with his homemade chocolate cake. Jerry was an amazing wood 
craftsman and was published in the national magazine, Wood. He has 
beautiful cutting boards all over America! He also loved to play 
horseshoes and even competed with some other men from Port Orange, FL in
 a state competition where they earned 3rd place! Jerry loved people and
 used his beer route, skills and even time in the hospital to connect 
with others. He was quick to make friends over a Diet Coke and a good 
story.

&nbsp;Jerry is survived by his daughter, Theresa Demoret,&nbsp;of Gothenburg, 
Nebraska; step-children, James Flagg and wife, Lisa of Salem, Illinois, 
Jeffrey Flagg, Sr. and wife, Lyn Kane of Crystal Lake, Illinois, and

Douglas Dean Helton

Laura Ann Cranston Dow "Ann" was born July 10th, 1935, in Ness City, 
Kansas, during the great Dust Bowl era. “As a little girl, I spent lots 
of time with my Grandparents on the farm. They took me to church 
socials, Grange dances, riding on the tractor, riding my pony Bill – he 
lived to be 25 years old and Grandma Emma cooked oatmeal for him so he 
could eat with no teeth!”

She helped her “Daddy” and Grandpa George drive cattle from the farm 
to the Ness City rail yards. Grandpa would always have a quarter or 
fifty cent piece he would slip her. “We were great buddies and me so 
very spoiled.”

As she got older The War broke out; she helped her family rolling 
bandages for the Red Cross, supporting Savings Bond drives in town, 
rationing sugar and gasoline. She played clarinet and piano, sang in the
 chorus, taught Sunday school, and loved being in plays and doing public
 readings.

She graduated High School in 1953 and moved to Nevada, Mo., where she 
met Richard "Dick" Dow, who was attending Wentworth Military College. 
“He was an honor graduate and such a wonderful person.” They were 
married August 14th 1954. Dick was sworn into the Army Infantry and off 
they went to see the world. Together they would live in Georgia, 
Washington, Germany, Texas, and Oregon. During these moves they had 
their “three little ones” Nancy, Jim, and Susie.

After moving to Bothell Washington, in September 1971 Dick passed 
away, unexpectedly. “those years are hard for me to write much about. My
 three children Nancy, Jim and Susie were my guiding lights and all did 
so well. I am so very proud of all three.” Grandma Hazel (Nama) moved 
back from Kansas to help. “She was such a valuable and loved part of our
 life.”

Ann would later move to Hood River Oregon where she was the 
neighborhood gathering spot for her grandchildren and their friends, 
everyone referred to her as ‘Grandma Ann’. She always had a snack in her
 sweet drawer, bacon for breakfast, and beautiful flowering peonies in 
the summer. Ann single handedly helped local businesses stay afloat with
 her devotion to various bakeries, clothing and shoe stores and of 
course, Dickeys Farms. Ann was an avid gardener, gifted with a green 
thumb, she was a life-long member of the PTO sisterhood and volunteered 
at Providence hospital for many years.

She leaves behind three children, six grandchildren, and seven great grandchildren.

“My three dearest kids Nancy, Jim, and Susie have been the occasion 
of great joy to me over the years. They are very special and gifted kids
 as are my grandkids and I am so very proud of each of you! I am sure 
all the relatives that have gone on before are just as proud of all of 
you as I am. Take care dear ones.”

Inurnment will be on February 6, 2023, at 11:00 a.m. in the Ness City Cemetery.

 </figure>Laura Ann Cranston Dow "Ann" was born July 10th, 1935, in Ness City, 
Kansas, during the great Dust Bowl era. “As a little girl, I spent lots 
of time with my Grandparents on the farm. They took me to church 
socials, Grange dances, riding on the tractor, riding my pony Bill – he 
lived to be 25 years old and Grandma Emma cooked oatmeal for him so he 
could eat with no teeth!”She helped her “Daddy” and Grandpa George drive cattle from the farm 
to the Ness City rail yards. Grandpa would always have a quarter or 
fifty cent piece he would slip her. “We were great buddies and me so 
very spoiled.”As she got older The War broke out; she helped her family rolling 
bandages for the Red Cross, supporting Savings Bond drives in town, 
rationing sugar and gasoline. She played clarinet and piano, sang in the
 chorus, taught Sunday school, and loved being in plays and doing public
 readings.She graduated High School in 1953 and moved to Nevada, Mo., where she 
met Richard "Dick" Dow, who was attending Wentworth Military College. 
“He was an honor graduate and such a wonderful person.” They were 
married August 14th 1954. Dick was sworn into the Army Infantry and off 
they went to see the world. Together they would live in Georgia, 
Washington, Germany, Texas, and Oregon. During these moves they had 
their “three little ones” Nancy, Jim, and Susie.After moving to Bothell Washington, in September 1971 Dick passed
