Frieda Hilda Harder was born on a farm east of Inman, Kansas to John W. and Anna (Doerksen) Wiens on June 8, 1926.&nbsp; She was the oldest and only daughter, followed by her three brothers, Ernie, Wilbur and Edwin.&nbsp; They all attended Inman Grade School and graduated from Inman High School.&nbsp; She was a lifelong Inman resident until her passing on Tuesday, January 30, 2024, at the age of 97 years.

Growing up, Frieda’s parents had cows and she would often enjoy milking them.&nbsp; She enjoyed it so much she would bribe her brothers with a piece of pie as a trade to milk the cows.&nbsp; Of course, they gladly accepted this.&nbsp; A neighbor’s cow got out of the pasture and ran straight for Frieda when she was younger, playing in the sandpile on the north side of their home.&nbsp; She got ran over by the cow and became scared, but luckily wasn’t hurt.

She remembered traveling to Colorado Springs with the H.E. Kroeker family and how much fun she had on that trip.&nbsp; They stayed in cabins and cooked all their meals together.

Her parents were custodians for Bethel Mennonite Church.&nbsp; Frieda would often help her parents with their duties.&nbsp; They were faithful members of the church and Frieda taught Sunday School for many years at Bethel Church and Crestview Bible Church where she was a current member.&nbsp; In all, she taught over 30 years of Bible School.

Frieda really enjoyed working in the Telephone Office in Inman, where she worked for a number of years.&nbsp; She also worked for Johnson Produce candling eggs.&nbsp; She loved Saturday evenings when friends would come to visit or go into the stores.&nbsp; Frieda enjoyed dressing up and going to the place she worked just to relax and visit with people.&nbsp; She had worked in a café on Main Street, washing dishes and making hamburgers.&nbsp; Frieda saved up money from this job to purchase most of the furniture when she and Millie were first married.

She was united in marriage to Milford John “Millie” Harder on October 14, 1951 in Inman. From this union, five children were born.&nbsp; Their first son, Gary Lee, lived only three days until the Lord took him Home.&nbsp;

Frieda and Millie went on to have four more children, Allen, Alice, Jeanette and Jane. All of their children were all married at Crestview Bible Church in Hutchinson, Kansas, by the same pastor, Rodney Goertzen.

She and Millie shared 66 years of marriage together before his passing on August 27, 2017.

Frieda was very thankful the Lord had led her, Millie, and their family on their journey through life.&nbsp; She was grateful for God’s blessings and guidance in her and her family’s lives.&nbsp; Frieda will be remembered and missed by the residents at Pleasant View Home, as many would hear her say “Amen” and “Praise the Lord” when they would walk past her open door.

She is survived by her son, Allen (Miriam) Harder of Omaha, NE; daughters, Alice (Tim) Koehn of Okeene, OK, Jeanette (Gary) Freel of Clovis, CA, and Jane (Scott) Schriner of Inman; 11 grandchildren; 20 great-grandchildren; and brothers, Wilbur (Reta) Wiens of Inman, and Edwin (Twila) Wiens of Houston, TX.

Frieda was preceded in death by her husband; parents; son, Gary Lee Harder; and brother, Ernie Wiens.

Cremation is planned with memorial services to be held at 11 a.m., Saturday, July 6, 2024 at the Pleasant View Home Chapel, 108 N Walnut, Inman, Kansas, 67546.  Private burial will take place at North Inman Cemetery.  Memorial contributions may be made to Pleasant View Home in care of Buhler Mortuary, PO Box 589, Buhler, KS 67522.

Leona M. Whited Bratcher |1929-2024|

Dr. Charlotte Anne Siemens, 64, died peacefully in North Newton, Kansas, under hospice care on May 31, 2024, surrounded by family.

Charlotte was born on January 29, 1960, to Richard and Frances Siemens. Although she would boast that her birthday was Kansas Day, Charlotte was actually born in Seattle, Washington. &nbsp;She grew up in Lyons, Kansas, with younger brother, Douglas Todd.

After graduating from Bethel College, North Newton, Kansas, Charlotte attended medical school at the University of Kansas, completing a residency in Wichita and a fellowship in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at the University of Wisconsin.&nbsp;

Charlotte began dating David Sprunger in 1978, and they were married by Rev. Marvin Zehr on June 25, 1988. The couple raised three children: Samuel Warren, Jacob William, and Anna Elizabeth.

Charlotte dedicated her career to working with children, young adults, and their families, practicing child and adolescent psychiatry in Fargo, North Dakota, for 28 years. When she retired from full-time practice, she was running a partial-hospitalization program for Sanford Medical Center where she also enjoyed working with medical students. She was proud to receive the James E. Mitchell, M.D., outstanding teacher award in 2019. In 2020, after Charlotte and David returned to Kansas, Charlotte worked part-time at Prairie View. Even as her health failed, she hoped to return to practice, so she could follow her patients’ progress.

Charlotte took great pleasure in cooking and baking, especially as a creative and social activity. In Fargo, she participated in a gourmet club with like-minded women who gathered monthly to prepare elaborate meals and enjoy each other’s company. Each summer she looked forward to using her garden produce to prepare gallons of salsa and Italian sauce. One year, she entered some of her salsas in the Cass County fair and emerged with a blue ribbon for tomato salsa and a Reserve Champion award for her peach salsa. As she and David designed their new house in North Newton, she made sure it featured a spacious kitchen, optimized for group cooking.&nbsp;

Charlotte felt a special connection to the natural world. She tried to walk daily, and her favorite indoor places were full of plants. Time spent hiking and fishing at the family cabin in southwest Colorado brought her particular joy. In Fargo, she participated in city xeriscape programs and one year even arranged for an adjusted work schedule in order to attend classes for certification as a master gardener. Family trips were not complete without visits to local botanical gardens. It is not surprising that she and David were married outdoors with Wichita’s Botanica in its early summer glory. In her final moments, she was covered with a quilt depicting irises and butterflies with a border of sunflowers, her favorite flower.

Charlotte was predeceased by her parents. She is survived by husband, David Sprunger (North Newton, Kansas); children Sam (Ellie) Sprunger (Maple Grove, Minnesota), Jacob (Alžběta Lutzká) Sprunger (Hustopeče, Czech Republic), Anna Sprunger (Middleton, Wisconsin); grandchild Harvey Sprunger; and brother Doug (Lu Ann Zook) Siemens (Newton, Kansas).&nbsp;

A memorial service will be held June 22, 2024, at 11 a.m. at the Bethel College Mennonite Church, preceded by a private inurnment service. The memorial service will be live streamed.

In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to Bethel College.

In Fargo, she participated in city xeriscape programs and one year even arranged for an adjusted work schedule in order to attend classes for certification as a master gardener. Family trips were not complete without visits to local botanical gardens. It is not surprising that she and David were married outdoors with Wichita’s Botanica in its early summer glory. In her final moments, she was covered with a quilt depicting irises and butterflies with a border of sunflowers, her favorite flower.Charlotte was predeceased by her parents. She is survived by husband, David Sprunger (North Newton, Kansas); children Sam (Ellie) Sprunger (Maple Grove, Minnesota), Jacob (Alžběta Lutzká) Sprunger (Hustopeče, Czech Republic), Anna Sprunger (Middleton, Wisconsin); grandchild Harvey Sprunger; and brother Doug (Lu Ann Zook) Siemens (Newton, Kansas).&nbsp;A memorial service will be held June 22, 2024, at 11 a.m. at the Bethel College Mennonite Church, preceded by a private inurnment service. The memorial service will be live streamed.In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to Bethel College.

With profound sorrow and yet immense gratitude for the time shared, we announce the passing of Gibbs Denning Schmalzried. &nbsp;Gibby was born in north Kansas City on July 31, 2017, leaving this world on June 5, 2024. Gibbs, affectionately known by many nicknames including Gibby, Gibby Dean, Deaner, and Little Mike, was a beacon of light in the lives of all who knew him. His cherubic, squishy cheeks and infectious smile made every greeting a joyous occasion.

Gibby never needed words to communicate; his expressions and spirit spoke volumes. He had an uncanny ability to convey his moods, from the delightful thrill of companionship to the urgent need for his beloved Mea, his ever-faithful dog. A lover of sunshine and giggle-inducing zerberts, Gibby's happiness was as radiant and warming as the sun itself.

Gibbs excelled in the art of relaxation, a true lounge rat who cherished snuggles with family. Television provided Gibbs with a window to joy. He was an avid fan of nostalgic shows like "Alf," "The Brady Bunch," "Full House," and "Little House on the Prairie," but his true comfort came from watching "Daniel Tiger," a show that reflected his own gentle, yet vibrant nature.

Music was a universal language for Gibbs. He adored Wynonna's songs, particularly "Flies on the Butter," and thrived in his adaptive music class in Wichita, where Mrs. Aubrie and Mr. Kenny embraced him with open arms, enriching his life through Zoom. And while he might have had mixed feelings about his mother Amber’s constant serenades, her voice was a constant, comforting presence in his life.

Some of his favorite moments were spent playing video games with his brother Garreth and sharing suckers/popsicles with his sister Rhiesa. He also loved spending time in the sun with Melissa, and no one looked better in sunglasses than Gibby.

Gibby’s life, though brief, was a masterclass in unconditional love. His pure, radiant spirit transcended any limitations, leaving a lasting impact on everyone fortunate enough to know him. He taught us the beauty of simple joys and the profoundness of unspoken bonds.

We are forever grateful for the time we had with Gibbs, whose essence was as pure and bright as the sun. His memory will continue to illuminate our lives, reminding us of the profound impact of love and the joy found in every smile and snuggle.

The family is grateful for those of you who took the time to get to know sweet Gibby. &nbsp;We don’t regret not sharing him with those who didn’t take the time to know his precious soul. &nbsp; &nbsp;

Left with an enormous void in their heart are his loving parents John and Amber, Sterling, brothers Wilkerson, Olathe, Garreth and Rayf of the home, his sister Rhiesa of the home, his caregiver and bonus mom Melissa of the home, and last but not least his dog Mea. &nbsp;Also left to mourn him are his grandma Emilie Schmalzried, Dighton, meem Janet Offutt, Dighton, aunt and uncle Ashley and Iver Tokoi, Abilene, and several aunts, uncles, lots of cousins, and other extended family. &nbsp; &nbsp;

Gibby was welcomed home by his grandpa Francis Schmalzried along with great grandpa Raymond and great grandma Ina Bell Wilkerson.

Funeral service will be 10:00 Saturday, June 8, 2024, at Elliott Mortuary. Graveside service will be 3:00 Saturday, June 8, 2024, in Dighton Cemetery, Dighton. Friends may sign the book from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Friday, at Elliott Mortuary. Family will greet friends from 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. Saturday, June 8, 2024, at Elliott Mortuary.
