Lyman Boursaw Passes Away
Lyman E. Boursaw, Jr., 91, of Topeka, Kansas, passed away Tuesday, April 2, 2024, at Midland Hospice House in Topeka. Lyman was born at home on June 4, 1932, in Topeka, the son of Lyman, Sr. and Grace (Delk) Boursaw. He was a member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation (CPN) and his Native American name was Shabbona. Lyman grew up in Topeka and he attended Highland Park schools from Kindergarten through High School, where he played football and basketball and was in the band. He then attended Washburn University where he was a member of the Kappa Sigma Fraternity. Lyman served in the U.S. Army from 1954 to 1956. After his discharge, Lyman held several positions with life insurance companies, followed by being a partner in Met-Con Products in Topeka. Later, he was employed by the U.S. Postal Service as a mail routing machine operator and trainer. In 2005, he was asked by the CPN Chairman to be part of the team that designed and later oversaw the construction of the CPN Community Center in Rossville KS. This was followed by the construction of ten duplexes located near the center. Lyman served as the CPN Housing Manager in Rossville since 2007. Lyman enjoyed listening to jazz music and dancing to the sounds of the big bands. An avid golfer, Lyman played countless rounds of golf and bad weather was never a deterrent, as evidenced by playing in a snowstorm in August in Canada with his brother, Jon.
Lyman is survived by his daughter, Nicole Boursaw Lux (Tony) of Shawnee KS; grandchildren, Mallory and Wyatt; and his brother, Jon Boursaw (Peggy) of Topeka.
A Celebration of Life service will be held in the CPN Community Center, 806 Nishnabe Trail, in Rossville at 11 a.m. on Monday, April 15, 2024. Native and casual attire is acceptable.
