Don worked at St Mary's Lumber for many years, was the Emmett City Manager before he made his dream a reality as the owner/operator of Dry Creekbed Saloon in Emmett in 2013.

Don loved live music, playing different instruments, and hailed as the greatest prankster. He loved showing off new gadgets "junk" he got at garage sales or off a clearance rack. He was a loyal friend, loving husband, father and Papa. His favorite role was being Papa to all his grandchildren who adored him.

Don married Connie Sue Keller  (RHS Class of 1977) Jeanneret on December 17, 1983. With this union, he gained toddler twins, a son John and daughter Erin, who he loved as his own. A son Levi was born in 1985. Connie preceded him in death in 2012, and Levi preceded him in death in 2017.

Don Ronnebaum Passes Away

Donald (Don) August Ronnebaum, 88, passed away peacefully after his lengthy battle with cancer on Saturday, March 5th, 2022, at Aldersgate Village in Topeka. Don was born in Baileyville, KS on June 28th, 1933, the son of Joseph and Elizabeth (Reinecke) Ronnebaum. 

He married Rose Marie Martin on October 27th, 1956, in Hanover, KS. Shortly after getting married, they purchased a farm near Delia, KS, where they raised their six children. This is where Don passed along his love for fishing to his children, as they spent many hours fishing at their farm ponds.

He was a member of the United Electrical Workers (UEW) of America and the International Machinist Union.

They lived many happy years together in this home, where they created and shared memories with their children and grandchildren. In his retirement years, Don enjoyed spending time restoring cars in his shop, fishing, and camping. Don and Rosie spent every summer in their camper at Tuttle Creek Lake. The two were happily married for 60 years and Don loved nothing more than spending time with Rosie. She preceded him in death in 2017, after her hard-fought battle with cancer in which he was always by her side. He also experienced a great loss in his son David, in 2019. After Rosie and David’s deaths, one of his greatest joys was being able to go on the Kansas Honor Flight with his granddaughter, as his student guardian. This was a time when he was able to reflect on his days in the service, and some of the moments that truly shaped his life.

Don had many happy memories of the time spent with his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. He was a man of great Christian faith and instilled that in his children as well. Don and Rosie were longtime parishioners of Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in St. Mary’s. He was also a 3rd degree Knight in The Knights of Columbus.

Martha (Barker)-Dunn Passes Away

Martha Shirlene Barker Dunn, 85, passed away on February 3rd, 2022 at home 
surrounded by family and friends. She likely danced her way right into
Heaven's pearly gates, with a child-like smile stretching from ear to ear,
knowing she would finally meet Jesus. If you met her, she probably told you,
"If I don't see you again down here, I'll meet you in the air!"

Martha was born on July 9th, 1936 to the late Ralph and Ruth Barker. She was
born in a small house in Harper, KS and was number seven out of nine children.
Martha went to school in Harper and lived at home before getting married to the
late Darwin Manjeot on February 28, 1955. They were married for 30 years and
had four children before Darwin went to be with Jesus in 1985. Darwin and
Martha were adventurers and they loved to travel and camp. They were fond of
Wyoming and enjoyed five years there before moving back to Kansas.
In May of 1972, Martha was born again and gave her whole life to Jesus. Early
on she volunteered at church with the bus ministry, Royal Rangers, and with
Daisy's.Martha prayed for so many loved ones and friends every day. Her
morning routine included reading her devotional and Bible, and praying over
each person on her prayer list. If she told you she was praying for you, that was
never a joke and she lifted you up to the Father every morning. When praying,
she also loved to ask the Father when Jesus was coming. She was never afraid
to share with anyone, including strangers, the love of Jesus and the importance
of accepting Him into your heart. If you don't already know Jesus, she would
want you to talk to her kids or grandkids. They will be happy to share the love of
Jesus with you so you can "Meet her in the air."

n 2002, Martha married Melvin Dunn and they lived in Rossville, KS and most
recently almost ten years in Jefferson County. Melvin and Martha celebrated
their 20th anniversary on January 29th, 2022. Together they served the Lord
and enjoyed spending their free time with family and friends. They attended
Jefferson Assembly of God in Meriden for many years and the last couple years
Seaman Community Church in Topeka. Before Covid, Melvin & Martha's
ministry included visiting several area nursing homes for many years. Together
they prayed over the residents, shared the love of Jesus, and prayed the
salvation prayer with them.

Martha was a ray of sunshine and her joy was evident every single day. In

addition to loving Jesus and her family, Martha loved animals, swimming, and
dessert. Feeding the birds, watching the squirrels play, and loving on all of the
doggies were frequent daily activities. If the sun was out and a swimming pool
was open, you could find Martha enjoying a swim until her fingers and toes
looked like raisins. After every meal, Martha always saved room for dessert. In
fact, the last thing she asked for was peaches and ice cream and she enjoyed
every bite.

Martha leaves to cherish her loving memory her husband, Melvin, her children;
Shirlene Zelenski, Becky (Matt) Moore, and Debbie (Rodney) Bower; 8
grandchildren, 16 great-grandchildren, her sister Glenda and brother Ronnie,
and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends. She was preceded in
death by her son, Dale, her late husband, Darwin, her parents and 6 siblings.

A celebration of life will be held on Monday, February 7th, 2022 at 4:00pm, at
Seaman Congregational Church 2036 NW Taylor Street, Topeka, KS 66608.
The family will receive friends from 3:00pm until 4:00pm, prior to the service at
the church.    In lieu of flowers, those wishing to make a donation in Martha's memory are
asked to consider the Jefferson County Humane Society, 15295 KS-4, Valley Falls, KS, 66088.
