Obituaries / CODY, Kelsey Doyle - b. Octobe...
Last post by patyrn - December 08, 2025, 01:19:42 PMKelsey Doyle Cody, age 102, passed away on November 24, 2025 at his home surrounded by his family. He was born on a farm near Cedar Vale, Kansas on October 12, 1923. When he was 14 years old, his mother, stepfather Asa Shehan, and stepsister, Wanda, moved from a farm close to Strother Field at Arkansas City, Kansas to a farm north of Longton, Kansas. Kelsey graduated from Longton High in 1941 and went into farming with his stepfather. In 1942, he pioneered in bringing the first black angus cattle to Elk County.
On January 7, 1948, he was united in marriage to Muriel Jontra of Howard, Kansas. To this union, a daughter, Kristin Linnae, and a son, Ken Lee, were born. In the fall of 1948, after much studying and talking with his wife, Muriel, they purchased 50 pounds of Kentucky Fescue at a dollar a pound. It came by mail, pioneering the first fescue in Elk County. He was also one of the first to go to big round bales and to disc mowers.
Kelsey was an avid worker with farming, hogs, and cattle until he gave up farming and took care of his cattle. In his younger days, he liked to calf rope at weekend rodeos. He even roped a buffalo calf at the Buffalo Ranch Rodeo hear Sedan, Kansas and won the event. One of his favorite hobbies was welding. He made lots of useful items being used on the ranch. His biggest joy was watching his granddaughter play softball.
Kelsey served several years on the Elk County Soil Conservation Board and Rural Water District Board when it was just getting started. He also served on the Busby Upola cemetery board for many years. He and Muriel received numerous awards for soil conservation, received the Banker's Award and the Goodyear Award, and in 1977, the very prestigious award of Master Farmer's and Homemaker of the Year. Only six were given out each year.
Kelsey leaves in passing his daughter, Linnae Cody, and son, Ken Cody, both of Longton, Kansas; a daughter-in-law, Mona; granddaughter, Kendra (Blayne) Murphy of Columbia, Missouri; great-granddaughter, Kensley Murphy; and many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents; his wife, Muriel; his brothers, Floyd and Emery; and his stepsisters, Janis Diamond and Wanda Young. He had many good neighbors. He will be missed by family and all those that knew him.
Funeral services were held on December 4, 20225 at Countryside Funeral Home in Howard, Kansas. Memorials have been suggested to the Harry Hynes Hospice and may be left with or mailed to the funeral home. Online condolences may be left with www.countrysidefh.com. Services were under the direction of Countryside Funeral Home, 206 E. Washington, Howard, Kansas 67349.

Obituaries / McDANIEL, Beth Marie (Kling) -...
Last post by patyrn - December 08, 2025, 12:20:05 PMBeth Marie McDaniel, age 70, passed away peacefully at her home in Ogden, Utah after a courageous 22-month battle with Melanoma. She was born May 20, 1955 in Winfield, Kansas, the second child of Loren and Elizabeth (Weyrauch) Kling.
Beth grew up in Howard, Kansas during her childhood. She attended Howard Grade School until August 1968 when her family moved to Lenexa, Kansas. She was a member of the First United Methodist Church of Howard, Kansas, the First United Methodist Church of Ogden, Utah, the Howard Go-Getters 4-H Club, and the American Legion Junior Auxiliary. Beth graduated from Shawnee Mission Northwest High School in 1973. After graduation, she took summer classes at Johnson County Community College in Overland Park, Kansas and then attended Kansas State Teachers College in Emporia, Kansas.
Beth married her high school sweetheart, Dennis "Mac" McDaniel, on October 20, 1974 in Lenexa, Kansas. They made their first home in Jacksonville, Arkansas as Beth became an Air Force wife with dreams of seeing the world. She worked at David Furniture Company in North Little Rock, Arkansas until 1978 when Mac received an assignment to Hill AFB, Utah. She then worked at Meridian Publishing, Ogden, Utah, starting in Sales Order Entry. She was promoted to Managing Editor after authoring several published articles. In June 1992, she worked for the Human Services Aging Department as the Office Manager of the Men's and Women's Program. She enjoyed working with people and seniors. Upon retiring in 2021, Beth joined the Weber County Organization for the Elderly (WCOFE) as Secretary Treasurer. Beth was the backbone of the organization, and filling her roles will be exceedingly difficult.
Beth's favorite pastime was birding. She loved her birds, spending time bird watching in her backyard, and her favorite spot to observe thousands of different kinds of birds was at sunrise and sundown at the Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge. She loved sharing her knowledge and beautiful photographs, especially of the Snowy Egret, Great Blue Heron, and Western Grebe. Any bird at Bird River brought her joy, and she especially loved watching hummingbirds in her own yard with feeders everywhere she could place them. Hearing the birds sing brought her peace. Over the years, Beth delighted in seeing George, a Western Screech Owl, visit their Weeping Willow tree. She even took her senior citizens on bus tours to share her knowledge.
Beth had many passions. She loved reading, cooking, especially her pecan pies, and tending to her flowers. She enjoyed traveling across the country, visiting the coast, the Rockies, the Smoky Blue Mountains, and the Appalachian Mountains as well as exploring historical landmarks. Mac and Beth loved traveling throughout the United States, often using their timeshare to see diverse and beautiful placed from coast to coast.
Beth's generous spirit, kindness, and infectious laughter will be deeply missed by all who knew her. She leaves behind a legacy of love, compassion, and appreciation for life's simple, beautiful moments. Her presence was a gift, and she will forever remain in our hearts. Rest in peace, Beth. Your love and courage will continue to inspire us, and we will carry your memory always.
Beth is survived by her husband of 51 years, Mac McDaniel; her two sons, Nathan and Andrew; her mother, Elizabeth Kling; her sister, Sandra (Mark) Keast; brothers, David (Cindy) Kling and Delven (Jackie) Kling; her brother-in-law, Rob McDaniel; and numerous nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews who will forever cherish their memories of her nurturing spirt and gentle soul. She was a beloved aunt who took great joy in her family's milestones and celebrations. She was preceded in death in 1990 by her father, Loren Kling, whom she loved dearly. In 1990, Beth and Mac suffered the heartbreaking loss of their daughter, Heather, during childbirth.
A Celebration of Life will be held, allowing family and friends to gather and reflect on the joy she brought to the world. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to the Melanoma Research Alliance in her memory. We thank all those who cared for her including the members and staff at McKay-Dee Hospital, Northern Utah Rehabilitation Hospital, Mount Ogden Rehabilitation, Road to Independence, and Renew Hospice. Services will be held on December 20, 2025 at the First United Methodist Church, 1339 W. 400 North, Marriott-Slaterville, Utah 84404. Services will be held at First United Methodist Church, 9138 Caenen Lake Road, Lenexa, Kansas 66215, date pending for January 2026.

Last post by CCarl - December 08, 2025, 11:36:42 AMI assume this post is from a Millennial or a Gen Z. And there are many posts like it recently on this Forum, with suggestions to simplify your lives, and have someone else do the work an educational institution expects each of us to do.
Why take short cuts in education? It isn't a game, is it? Why not learn to write, make it an asset of your resume, and just possibly an attribute of your life?
How will you deal with an essay component to a mid-term exam where the Professor grades you for content AND technical writing skills? What if your own writing skills are so lacking the Professor cannot understand the content you present, even though it may be accurate and pertinent to the questions asked?
Millennial and Zoomer generations have some of the highest underemployment numbers, and the least employment potential of the last five or six generations. There are relatively few doors of opportunity open to the last two generations. Those conditions are not solely on your shoulders. We are living in a time of cultural rot and decay disguised by sociologists as change. Given the circumstances, why not take on the challenge of writing, and other skillsets, and have more doors open to you, have more opportunity through self-reliance?

Last post by CCarl - November 03, 2025, 06:52:19 AMChalk It Up To Big Government
Only top-down centralized control of marketplaces creates this scenario.
https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/largest-trucking-capacity-purge-history-coming
Expect bare shelves and higher prices, but what's new?
The solution is local and regional markets that supply fresher food, lower costs, AND less dependency on transportation.
Libertarians need to let go of arguing for change in DC. Instead we need to learn to nullify DC, and act through changes to State governments to re-invigorate local markets.
Our biggest problem is very, very few of the talking head Libertarian pundits speak about specific solutions. All they do is criticize the status quo National Fascists in power, and the Democratic Communists who will regain control of DC in the next election, if a next election is allowed.
It is beyond time to think and act locally.
