Raub Zeller (52) Passes Away

    Raub Zeller, 83, of Schulenburg, Texas, passed away in his sleep on Wednesday, November 8, 2017. 
    Mr. Zeller retired to Schulenburg after selling the family carwash in Austin and a 35-year career in sales. He graduated from Rossville High School in 1952. He was a proud US military veteran serving in the US Army on the Berlin Wall during the Korean War and as a medic in the Kansas National Guard. Since arriving in Schulenburg, he faithfully attended Zion Lutheran Church; recently received his 10-year pin as a member of American Legion Post 143 and was an active member of the Lions Club until health prohibited. 
Raub spent many hours with his treasured Allis Chalmers tractors which are still used on the family farm and in his garden. His love for the orange tractors endured from his early years on the family farm in Rossville, Kansas. He left Kansas with his young family to pursue sales in Houston. There he discovered the Gulf Coast spending all his free time with family and friends at the beach house on the San Bernard river or offshore fishing for grouper, dorado, kings, and snapper or hunting for goose and dove. His uncanny ability to fix anything with a motor, his buttermilk pancakes and yeast rolls, and his giant cinnamon rolls were enjoyed for many holiday seasons and will be remembered for many to come. 
    He is survived by Mary, his wife of 51 years, and three of his sons, Patrick, Michael and Timothy, while his oldest son Raub Jr. preceded him in death. He leaves daughters-in-law Janet, Kelly and Renee; grandchildren Heather, Kelly, Ashley, Tarah, John, Zack, Nick, and Zoe; great grandchildren Zev, Skyler, Rowen, Reaves, Justice, Richie, Ainsley, and Arabella; and seven siblings Lyle, Roger, Alice, Becky, Connie, Vince and Donna. His parents, Nora Marie Beck Zeller and Uriah Raub Zeller and his brother Larry also preceded him in death.
    Memorial services are set for Saturday, Dec. 2 at 11 a.m. at Zion Luthran Church in Schulenburg.

Mary T Stockman Passes Away

Mary T Stockman, 91, passed from this world to her new journey with the Lord, November 11, 2017 at Midland Hospice in Topeka. 

She was born May 19, 1926, in Topeka, the sixth of seven daughters of Leo A. and Loretta Erbacher. 

T grew up in St. Marys, KS, where she attended and graduated from Immaculate Conception Catholic School. After high school graduation she attended St. Mary's College in Leavenworth before moving to Denver to join the workforce.

During her high-school years, she began to date the love of her life, Robert (Bob) Stockman. They married on Friday, June 13, 1947, in Cheyenne, WY. After a few years there, they returned to Kansas to farm and raise a family. After brief periods on farms in the Emmett and Rossville areas, they settled near Maple Hill, where they lived and ranched for 43 years.

T was involved in the community, serving on the Maple Hill School Board as well as in leadership roles with the Maple Hill 4-H club and county 4-H. She was a long-time member of the Maple Hill Research Club and Wabaunsee County Farm Bureau. She was also a member of Immaculate Conception Catholic Church parish in St. Marys. 

T loved her extended family and had many friends, young and old. She was known for her ability to connect with people and for her ability to listen and provide sound advice. She spent countless hours as a volunteer on a hotline, talking with individuals in their times of need.

In 1996, T and Bob retired and moved to their home on Pomona Lake with the view that was her daily inspiration. She enjoyed boat rides and swimming every chance she could get. She enjoyed many friend and family gatherings at the lake. She loved to cook and use fresh produce from Bob's garden. 

After moving, she became a member of St. Patrick Churches of Osage City and Scranton. She enjoyed involvement in various parish activities. The parish involvement was especially meaningful because her grandparents were married at St. Patrick in Scranton.

This past June, T and Bob celebrated their 70th Wedding Anniversary with a gathering of family and friends. They were named the longest-married couple in Kansas for 2017 by Worldwide Marriage Encounter. There was also a proclamation by the Kansas House of Representatives honoring them for their long marriage. 

T was preceded in death by her daughter, Beverly Jean Stockman Harris, as well as her parents and her sisters. She is survived by her husband and as well as her sons and daughters; Barbara (Larry) Schulte of Leawood; Bruce (Pat) Stockman of Prior Lake, MN; Brian (Michele) Stockman of Parker, CO; Brenda (Kevin) Selman of Columbia, MO. She has 12 grandchildren and 8 great grandchildren. She is also survived by many other loving extended family members.

Two visitations will be held for friends and family to gather. The first will be at Piper Funeral Home, St. Marys, Friday, November 24, 5-7 p.m. concluding with a vigil liturgy and sharing of memories. The second will be at St. Patrick Catholic Church in Osage City, 9:30-10:30 a.m., Saturday, November 25. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 10:30 a.m. A luncheon will follow. Interment will be at 2 p.m. at the Maple Hill Cemetery. A coffee gathering will be held at the Parish Hall in Maple Hill immediately following.

Memorial contributions may be made to the building fund for St. Patrick Church of Scranton, C/O Parishes of St. Patrick, 309 S 6th St, Osage City, KS 66523, or to the PACE Midland Care Building Campaign at https://www.midlandcareconnection.org/get-involved/support-our-work/waystogive/donate-online/ Piper Funeral Home, St. Marys is in charge of arrangements.

Rossville Rattlers Cease Operations

David Streeter is with Tobi Cowdin.

November 3 at 11:30am · 

We posted the news this morning on Facebook, we’ve decided to cease operations of the Rossville Rattlers.

For those who don’t know, I’ve been involved with the Rattlers since their inception in late 2011. It has been a wild ride through six seasons of summer collegiate baseball, but we all agreed as a whole it was time to move on.

There is an old saying, “Only Nixon would go to China”. That’s how I felt about the initial idea of putting a team in Rossville, “Only Brett Cowdin would go to Rossville.” The man had a dream and he was right about it, it worked! We had a successful team in Rossville, it was a year-round job though; one that could be very consuming.

When Brett passed away in November of 2013, I remember thinking this whole dream was over. Luckily we had some damn amazing people to help get things in order and steer this ship in the right direction. I am immensely grateful and thankful that I had these people around.

Tobi Cowdin, Katie Ralston, Marcie Cowdin, Bruce Cowdin, Tiffany Langer, Jim Gorman, Makaila Cowdin, Barbara Cowdin, Maisie Cowdin, Jaxon Cowdin, Natalie Whitt, Craig Thornburg, Lisa Thornburg, Jacob Thornburg, Hailey Thornburg, Perry Foster, Alan Foster, Ann Foster, Amelia Foster, Jason Leathers, Nicole Farr-Leathers, McGwyre Leathers, Ryan Leathers, Ronnie Bailey, Braedyn Forkenbrock, Michaela Forkenbrock, Jayda Forkenbrock, Lou “Paps” King, Travis Van Vleck, Christy McKenzie, Steve Alfrey, Karen Alfrey, Dan Glotzbach, Laurie King Glotzbach, Doug Leonard, Anita Leonard, Dan Fischer, Connie Fischer, Rod Brown, Brenda Brown, Tony Eakin, Toby Brown, and I know I’ve forgotten some!

That is what it took. They try to give me too much credit, but that list is the essence of #Venom.

Thank you all for everything. It was an amazing ride and I’m glad I was part of it!

No Rattler Baseball Next Summer

More than 150 collegiate baseball players have gone through the summer ball program over the past six seasons.
