Joyce Alene Crawford, born March 25, 1936, went to be with her Lord on Aug 17,2024. She was a loving wife to Robert Crawford for 67 years. She was a devoted mother to Kate Elaine Wolf, Bryan Kevin Crawford and Phyllis Anne Ray. Alene and Bob have 4 grandchildren and 8 great grandchildren.&nbsp;

Preceding Alene in death were her parents, Allie and Mossie Self; brothers Raymond Self, W.C. Self, and Kenneth Pendergrass.&nbsp;

Alene is survived by husband, Robert Crawford of Newton; son Bryan (Tracy) Crawford of Phoenix, AZ; daughters, Kate (Randy) Wolf of Burns, KS and Phyllis (Carol) Ray of Asheville, NC. Sisters, Marjean Holleman of Los Alamos, NM; Judy (Ed) Barkowsky of Synder, TX; and brother Joe (Bonnie) Self of Albuquerque, NM. As well as 4 grandchildren, 8 great-grandchildren and multiple nieces and nephews.&nbsp;

Alene was born in Wolfforth, Texas with humble beginnings and lived there until she went to college at Texas Tech University. She graduated in 3 years with a degree in Food and Nutrition. At the encouragement of her parents, all the children pursued a degree and graduated from Texas Tech.&nbsp;

Alene said the best thing about going to Tech was meeting her loving husband, Bob Crawford in chemistry class. They built a life together based on the devotion to each other and their faith. Bob’s job with the US Dept of Agricultural moved the family around to small Texas towns then to Syracuse, NY (1975) and Burlington, VT (1978). Bob &amp; Alene made their way back to the southwest in 1983 to Phoenix, AZ, where they eventually retired.

Alene pursued a master’s degree to become a Registered Dietitian (R.D.) at Texas Tech University. She worked various part-time jobs in school lunchroom service, a nursing home and hospital while the kids were at home. After her graduate work was completed at Syracuse University and she received her R.D., she worked as a hospital dietitian and loved it.

After retirement, Alene &amp; Bob spent a month in the New Mexico mountains each summer near Taos and Las Alamos to get out of the Phoenix heat, to fish Cimarron Canyon and visit with family. Alene &amp; Bob loved the return to the “Texan’s playground” of Northern New Mexico where they spent summers in the 60’s and 70’s camping, fishing and snow-skiing in the winters with their children. Alene and Bob continued to make trips back to the Taos, NM area for fishing and visiting family thru 2021. Their children joined them numerous times to relive their childhood memories and, of course, play dominoes and cards.&nbsp;

In 2004, Alene &amp; Bob left the deserts of AZ to move to Asheville, NC where their daughter Phyllis and family live. In 2009, Alene and Bob moved to Newton, KS, where daughter, Kate and Randy Wolf live nearby. They settled into small town life and enjoyed their new church family at Grace Community Church.&nbsp;

Alene was an avid reader and worked the daily newspaper crossword puzzles with Bob. She loved to play games, from Bridge, Canasta, Dominoes, &amp; board games. This is a great family tradition that has been passed down to all including their great grandchildren. Alene was a wonderful cook; she could cook for 2 up to any number of people in a group. Her children have especially fond memories of home-made oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. She loved to cook, and Bob loved to eat her food.

Alene will be truly missed; it is impossible to express the loss by her family and those who knew her.

&nbsp;Visitation will be Tuesday, August 20, 2024, from 7:00 p.m. - 8:30 p.m. at Petersen Funeral Home in Newton. The funeral service will be the following day at 10:00 a.m., Wednesday, August 21, 2024, at Grace Community Church, 1600 S. Anderson Rd in Newton. A graveside service will follow the service at Greenwood Cemetery.&nbsp;

John F. Murray |1932-2024|

James Jerome Pohlman Jr., shook off the bonds of this world late Friday evening, August 16, 2024 at 10:08 pm and passed peacefully from this life into the next.

While living, Jim wore many “hats”: husband, father, patriot, police officer, pastor, coach, grandfather, and great-grandfather. He was born March 14, 1942 to Jim Sr. and Irene Pohlman of Wichita, KS. He graduated in 1960 from Wichita High School North in Wichita before enlisting in the US Navy. Instilled with a strong sense of patriotism, he served aboard the Navy Destroyer USS Orleck (DD-886) as an engine-room boiler tender. He considered it a tremendous privilege and honor to serve his country in this capacity. Through the remainder of his life, he often declared that if someone were to cut him, he would bleed red, white, and blue.

It was during his time in the Navy that he met and married the love of his life, Sara Ann Philip, also of Wichita. Together they celebrated 55 years of marriage and brought into the world four boys: Jeff (1963), Tim (1966), Kip (1968) and Dusty (1978). After the Navy, Jim joined the police department and served as a K-9 officer in the mid-to-late 60’s amidst the race riots that broke out following the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr.

Having witnessed first-hand many of the horrible things of which man is capable, and through the unwavering positive influence of his wife, Jim turned to serving in a different capacity; full-time Christian ministry.

He graduated from Ozark Bible College in Joplin, Missouri in 1976. The “hat” of pastor was one that he wore longer than any other, serving the Lord for 50 years in many different locations across the country in Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas, Indiana, and (most recently) Kansas where he ultimately spent his final 35 years at the Peabody Christian Church proudly serving his community and the surrounding areas from 1986 until his retirement from public ministry in 2021. His dedication to preaching, teaching, and living the truth made an indelible impact on those congregations and the people therein. His lasting influence continues and will continue through the lives he touched, long after his passing.

For recreation, Jim loved playing golf. His love for the game drove him to play several times a week (when he could), and eventually allowed him to coach the varsity golf team at the Peabody-Burns High School. Golf was his outlet, and it served as a metaphor for his Christian Walk. “It is possible to know all the rules of the game, how to stand, where to look, timing your swing, but sometimes you still make mistakes. As Christians, we know how we should live, but sometimes we mess up. Don’t quit. Keep striving, keep working toward getting better. The mistakes? That’s why we have Jesus.”

Another aspect of Jim’s life was his love for horses. He owned several over his lifetime, and loved to ride with family and friends. One unique opportunity that his ministry in Peabody provided, was the chance to appear, dressed in black astride his horse, as the “Circuit-riding Preacher.”

One part of his life that didn’t require a “hat,” was his love for the Lord. Being a believer wasn’t something he was, it was who he was. He ministered to anyone he encountered through love, compassion, and respect. His life reflected Jesus to the world around him. Even people who didn’t attend his church, often considered him their pastor; someone they could always come to in a time of need for advice, prayer, guidance, and counseling. He will be deeply missed by more than we can count.

Jim is preceded in death, and has no doubt been greeted in Heaven by his parents (Jim Sr. and Irene), his in-laws (Walter and Thelma Philip), his wife (Sara), one granddaughter (Felicia) and two great-grandsons (Tysin and Bentley).

He leaves behind a vast crowd of family and friends who love him dearly, including his brother John (with wife Sharon); sons Jeff, Tim (with wife Heidi), Kip (with wife Lana), and Dusty (with wife Jamie), grandchildren Jordan (with husband Marc), Travis (with wife Casey), Benjamin, Bailey (with husband Brett), Jakob, Cheyenne (with husband Tanner), Maggie, Jadelyn, Eva, Ryan, Lulu, and Caspian; and great-grandchildren Bradyn, Charlotte Paisley Ann, Rachel, Reed, Riggins, Sara, and Jett.

Services will be held 10:00 a.m., Wednesday, August 21, 2024 at the Peabody Christian Church, 407 N. Sycamore, Peabody, Kansas.&nbsp; Graveside following service at Prairie Lawn Cemetery, Peabody, Ks.

Baker Funeral Home Peabody-Valley Center has charge.

David “Big Dave” Brian Serviss, 49, passed away on Wednesday, August 14, 2024, in Pretty Prairie, KS.

David was born on January 17, 1975, in Lyons, KS, the son of David James “Jim” and Cris (Collins) Serviss. On July 15, 1994, David married the love of his life, Heather Jenkins, in Hutchinson, KS. They spent 30 wonderful years together. He was a dedicated employee of Reno County for 27 years – with the majority of those years with Reno County Public Works Department. David loved nothing more than spending time with his family and friends. David’s greatest pride and joy were his children and grandchildren. David had a passion for hunting and fishing with his boys, no matter the season. He was a jack of all trades and was always there to help his daughter with anything and everything she needed. Being a Papa kept him young and his wallet empty because he spoiled them with every want and need. He never missed a ball game, school concert or family activity with his children and grandchildren. It wasn’t uncommon for David to scroll endlessly for new recipes to try on his smoker or to throw into his ice cream machine for a last-minute family dinner. If he wasn’t relaxing in his chair, he was spending all his free time in his shop tinkering around or working on his mud truck. David and Heather were best friends and could be found travelling near and far, camping, and trying out all the escape rooms they could find. He was a giant teddy bear with the greatest soul who made an impact on all who had the privilege to know him. David is already missed beyond words by so many.

He was preceded in death by his father Jim and father-in-law Tom Jenkins.

David is survived by his mother, Cris Serviss, Wichita, KS; the love of his life, Heather Serviss, Arlington, KS; two sons, David John (Brandy) Serviss and Logan (Chazney Thiessen) Serviss, both of Arlington, KS; daughter, Megan (Duke Anderson) Serviss, Wichita, KS; sister, Dannelle (Robert Perez) Serviss, Haysville, KS; grandchildren, Gentry and David Miles Serviss, Arlington, KS; mother-in-law, Connie Jenkins; sister-in-law, Jennifer (Ryan) Balkenhol; brother-in-law, Ryan Jenkins, all of Emporia, KS; step-mother, Joan Ballard, Clackamas, OR; numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews, and great nieces and nephews who loved David.

David’s Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, August 24, 2024, beginning at 11 a.m. for a come and go lunch at Arlington Community Center, 900 W. Main St, Arlington, KS. Memorial Contributions are suggested to the David B. Serviss Memorial Fund and can be sent in care of Hutchinson Funeral Chapel, 300 E. 30th Ave, Hutchinson, KS 67502.

Monica Gross was born to Adam P. and Lena M. (Unruh) Dirks. She grew up on a family farm near Great Bend, Kansas. Following graduation from Pawnee Rock High School, she attended Bethel College. After graduation in 1945, she worked full-time as secretary to President E. G. Kaufman and editor of the Bethel College Bulletin. While working there, she met her husband, Harold H. Gross. They lived in Freeman, South Dakota, after they were married in 1947, where Harold was on the faculty at Freeman Junior College. Their children included twin daughters, Camille and Cheryl, and a son, Cuyler. In 1958, the family moved to North Newton when Harold joined the faculty of Bethel College.

&nbsp;Monica started working again for Bethel College in 1965 as Director of News Service and Editor of the Bethel College Bulletin. After her husband’s sudden death in 1980, she transitioned to supervisor of the Alumni and Development Records until her retirement in 1989, working for Bethel College for a total of 25 years. Monica was active in church life, developing the church library in Freeman. She served as librarian for Bethel College Mennonite Church, including 11 years as the Literature Committee chairman, and served on various other committees. She was open-minded, and believed in inclusion for all people, since everyone is a child of God. She was active in Soroptimist International, Business and Professional Women, American Association of University Women, and Bethel College Women’s Association.

&nbsp;Following retirement, Monica devoted much of her time to volunteer projects including MCC work in Pennsylvania, North Carolina, California, and Texas. She volunteered locally at Book ReViews, the EtCetera Shop, Newton Medical Center Gift Shop, Ten Thousand Villages, and Kauffman Museum. A lifelong book lover and avid reader, she was active in several area book clubs. Gardening was a special hobby that she shared with others, especially those who frequented the walking path at the back of her home where she kept a beautiful flower garden, complete with plant labels. She had a great interest in other cultures and ethnic foods, traveling with family and friends to all 50 states and 35 countries. She loved listening to classical music, attending music concerts or dramas, and playing games with her friends.

&nbsp;Monica loved to travel, and planned vacation trips every year to enrich her family’s experiences. The family visited a different part of the United States every summer. While Harold was on sabbatical leave studying at Heidelberg University in Germany, the family toured all over Europe, the Holy Land, Greece, and Russia and Eastern Europe. When her children’s family were growing up, she combined her love for family with travel, including fun on houseboats and at resorts.&nbsp;

Dr. Douglas Young, a man of compassion and care, passed away at his home in Park Hill, Oklahoma, on July 5, 2024. His legacy is one of dedication to his family, friends, and the thousands of patients he treated throughout more than 50 years in his medical career.

Douglas was born on March 31, 1942, in McPherson, Kansas, to Carl and Roma Young. After graduating from McPherson High School in 1960, he earned a B.S. degree in Pharmacy from the University of Kansas [K.U.],&nbsp; then supported his advanced medical studies working in that field before graduating from the K.U. School of Medicine in 1971.

Following graduation, Doug served as a General Medical Officer and Hospital Administrator for the U.S. Air Force in Sembach, Germany, for the next 3 years. Upon returning to Wichita, he completed his Residency in Internal Medicine at the K.U. School of Medicine in 1978. He then became Clinical Instructor of Medicine for the Medical School and Medical Director of Gerontology at Columbia Wesley Medical Center in Wichita, as well as a Physician at the Wichita Veterans Administration Hospital. Later, he joined the Wichita Clinic, where he practiced in the Internal Medicine Department and served as the Medical Director of Immediate Care until 2000. During his medical career in Wichita, he served as Medical Staff President at Columbia Wesley Medical Center as well as President of Sedgwick County Medical Society, awarded Outstanding Physician in Kansas in 1984,&nbsp; and served as a long-term Board of Director member of Kansas Foundation of Medical Care.

Doug moved to Oklahoma in 2000 where he worked in Wound Care and Internal Medicine Departments at St. Michael’s and Deaconess Hospitals in Oklahoma City. He then joined the Cherokee Nation in Tahlequah, Oklahoma, in 2007, founding and serving as Medical Director for the Cherokee Elder Care Program before joining Cherokee Nation Health Services as Staff Physician in Urgent Care for the next 14 years.

Doug's curiosity, love of learning, and passion for medicine were evident throughout his life. He never sought fame or fortune but made significant contributions, such as the Cherokee Elder Care Program and establishing new courses on drug interactions and elderly care for medical residents at the University of Kansas School of Medicine in Wichita. Similarly, his dedication to helping those in need led to the establishment of Project Access in Wichita, a program connecting uninsured individuals with medical providers. During the last three years of his medical career, he served as the telehealth ‘Covid’ physician for the Cherokee Nation, impacting hundreds of Tribal patients and their families during the COVID epidemic.

Beyond medicine, Doug had a passion for life, art, and the history of Native Americans. He was preceded in death by his parents and sister, Ramona Kay. He is survived by his beloved wife, Sharilyn Young; sister, Carlene Berg (Jim), their three daughters Trina, Autumn, Heather, and their families; stepdaughter, Arriane Alexander; stepson, Tobin Gump (Bobbie), grandson Carson Gump; son, Charley Young (Teresa), their children Suzanna, Mila, Rowen and William; daughter, Jessica Goodpasture (Tim), their daughters Savannah and Josie; and daughter, Megan Young and her son Nicholas.

Donations in his name can be made to the University of Kansas School of Medicine, Wichita.
