Jerry Lee Ledbetter, 78, passed away on August 30, 2025, at the Rooks County Health Center in Plainville. Jerry was a resident at Redbud Village in Plainville. 

He was born on November 21, 1946, to James and C. Ruby (Bullock) Denniston in Hays. He married Phyllis Reeder on December 22, 1971. They were blessed with three children: Dan, Trina, and Amy.

Margaret (Rusty) Louise Colahan-Sederstrom, 76, passed away on August 20th, 2025, surrounded by loved ones, in Wichita.

Helen was a prayer warrior — dynamite in a small package! She was slim with sandy-colored hair and a narrow face, but make no mistake, she packed prayer power in her slender frame. She took God's instruction to "pray without ceasing" earnestly, and if you knew Helen, she prayed for you by name! If you didn't know Helen, she probably still prayed for you, too! Helen had God's heart and desire that none should perish but all should come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.
