Mary Jane (Krasny) (50) Martin Passes Away
Mary Jane (Krasny) Martin, 89, of Silver Lake, passed away peacefully with family at her side on Wednesday, February 9th, 2022. She and her twin, Marie Jean Harden, were born May 6, 1932 to Rudolph and Wilma Krasny of Delia, KS. Mary spent her childhood in the Delia/Rossville area, graduating from Rossville High School in 1950.
Mary married Charles Martin on August 30, 1951 in Topeka. They were married 66 years. Charlie proceeded her in death on February 10, 2017. Mary and Charlie enjoyed their four "girls", Peggy (Joe) Pistora, Karen (Terry) Hay, Mary “Diane” (Ron) Martinek and Nancy (Bob) Pfannenstiel, ten grandchildren and twenty-two great-grandchildren. Mary was a wonderful mother and excelled at being a grandmother. In the early days, she spent many days at softball fields and at lakes fishing, camping and skiing. She was a talented self-taught painter, who enjoyed sharing her artistic creations with many. Mary took pride in living independently, including gardening and mowing with her new zero-turn mower. The Silver Lake Senior Center and friends were an important part of Mary's life.
Mary always enjoyed watching kids and grandchildren's events. She drove the Silver Lake school bus for many years, allowing the kids to have a water balloon fight on the last day of school so the bus could be washed out.
Visitation will be held at the Citizen Potawatomie Nation Building in Rossville, KS on May 6, 2022 from 5pm-7pm in honor of Mary's 90th birthday. The family will hold a private graveside service.
The Family wishes to thank all the highly skilled and compassionate Healthcare workers who cared for Mary at Stormont Vail. Memorial contributions may be made to the USD 372 Silver Lake School Foundation, c/o Mary Martin, PO Box 39, Silver Lake, KS 66539.

Tyler L. Pierce Passes Away
Tyler Logan Pierce was born March 14th 1990 in Portland Adventist Hospital, Multanomah county, Oregon. He passed away Jan. 25, 2022. He was raised in Rossville and attended schools there.The best way to describe Tyler is as a kind and steadfast man. He went out of his way to support and care for those he loved. An extra hand to move, a place to sleep, a couple bucks when down on your luck. Just a fraction of the things he did without qualm or hesitation.
He was an incredibly talented musician, especially with guitar and drums. He loved movies. We have many fond memories of seeing the latest one with him and other times watching the most awful B movies
He was unflappable. Never angry, always understanding. The troubles of life that grab all of us seemed to just roll off him like a wave on a beach. He had a wonderful sense of humor and loved to make people laugh. He found a way to make you smile and smile himself even in the darkest times
After a 6 month battle with aggressive brain cancer Tyler passed January 25th, 2022 with loved ones near.

Shirley Mitchell Has Passed Away
Shirley Jean (Walder) Roper Mitchell, Coweta, Okla., age 73, passed into the arms of Jesus on Friday, Jan. 7, 2022, at Hillcrest Medical Center, Tulsa, Okla., due to pneumonia.
She was born Sept. 17, 1948, in Holton, to Jesse and Louise (Schumacher) Walder. She was raised on a farm north of Delia.
Her grade school years were spent at High Prairie Country School north of Delia. She was baptized at the Lutheran church in Holton. She then attended Delia High School and was a member of the final graduating class in 1966. During high school she was a cheerleader. There were 13 individuals in this class. She worked for Hallmark Cards in Topeka for five years after graduation.
Shirley married Bill Roper on March 14, 1970. To this union were born two daughters — Tammi and Tara. Shirley and Bill managed Limestone Springs Ranch south of Soldier until 1984. They later divorced.
During this time, Shirley was active in East Grant Unit and Pleasant Valley Rustlers 4-H club. She helped many Jackson County kids with sewing, quilting, baking and craft projects. Gardening, reading, sewing, baking and visiting were her favorite pastimes along with raising her two daughters.
On Jan. 11, 1987, Shirley married Jim Mitchell, owner of Mitchell Custom Harvesting, of Soldier. Traveling from Texas, through Oklahoma, Kansas, Colorado, Nebraska, South Dakota and Montana during wheat harvest and then back to Colorado and Texas for fall milo and corn harvest became an important part of her life until 1994, when they divorced.
She cooked, did laundry, went for parts and groceries and cooked some more. She was always trying out a new recipe and most were well-received by the hired hands. During this time, she also continued raising her daughters.
Her first grandchild, Keenan James Mitchell, was born in 1991. Being Grandma was the highlight of her every day. With the pending arrival of her second grandchild, Kylie Jean Mitchell, she did not like the long distance. She moved from Holton to Ulysses in 2000. She attended every school activity, ballgame and church event she could and was Keenan and Kylie’s biggest cheerleader.
Grandson Camden Noah Ripperger was born in 2004. Granddaughter Gracen Noel Ripperger arrived in 2006. They lived in Broken Arrow, Okla., and this distance was too far for Grandma. She was planning another move to be near Tara and family when in November 2012, she suffered a stroke. Many hours, days and weeks of rehabilitation, with much help from Keenan, lead to her being able to live on her own.
She moved to Coweta, Okla., in 2013, residing at Carriage Crossing senior apartments. During the past eight years, she has attended every school activity, ballgame and church event she could and was Camden and Gracen’s biggest cheerleader. Several of the kids’ friends affectionately named her Grandma Giggles.
Shirley is survived by daughter and son-in-love, Tammi and Bryan Mitchell, Ulysses; daughter and son-in-love, Tara and Jeff Ripperger, Coweta, Okla.; grandson Keenan of Wichita; granddaughter Kylie of Ulysses; grandson and granddaughter Camden and Gracen of Coweta; brother and sister-in-love Carl and Linda Walder, Delia; nephew Wade Walder, Delia; great-nephews Chase and Truitt Walder; special friend of more than 50 years Jan Desch; many cousins and many, many friends. She is preceded in death by her parents and grandparents, aunts and uncles.
Cremation has taken place. Services will be held in Broken Arrow, Okla., and Ulysses and burial in Holton, with dates and times to be determined. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to Du Good Events, 107 N. Baughman, Ulysses, KS 67880; or Delia Community Pride, 412 Nora Ave., Delia, KS 66418.
