Ann (Cowan) Van Doren died of natural causes on May 7, 2022, at Via Christi Village in Manhattan, KS. She was 98 years old. Born Nelley Ann Cowan on October 10, 1923, in Kansas City, MO, to Austin Marcus Cowan, attorney at law and Dr. Edwina Abbott Cowan, Director and Clinical Psychologist of the Wichita Child Guidance Center. Raised in Wichita, KS, her childhood summers were spent camping in Colorado with family – a tradition she continued with her husband and children. In 1943 Ann met the love of her life, Claude Van Doren at Wichita State University. Ann has always been the type of person to get things done. When Claude left for the Navy Air Corps to fight in World War II, she decided to call his mother for his mailing address. She wanted to see more of him. Claude wrote Ann back and their courtship began. Once Claude returned from War, both he and Ann went to Kansas University. Ann earned a bachelor’s degree in 1946 and Claude completed a degree in architecture in 1950. They were married in 1947. Claude became a prominent Wichita architect who designed several buildings statewide. Ann’s involvement in her community is legendary. First as an Alpha Chi Omega member where she continued her service to her sorority by serving as alumnae president for the Wichita chapter. In 2000 she was named the Wichita Chapter of Alpha Chi Omega Alumna of the Year for her 50 years of service. Other nonprofits that received her gifts of time include numerous positions with the American Cancer Society of Sedgwick County (35 plus years), Wichita Town Talks (3 years), and Junior League of Wichita (56 years). She also served as president of the National Alliance on Mental Illness, taught Sunday School at Plymouth Congregational Church (10 years), volunteered at the Wichita Art Museum (10 years), and was an active member of University Congregational Church of Wichita. Between all of that, Ann kept busy raising four children. Later she worked at Wichita State University as the executive secretary to the Vice President of Academic Affairs for 15 years. After retiring in 1988, she volunteered at WSU as a test proctor for 15 plus years. Claude and Ann celebrated 35 years of marriage before his passing in 1982. Their children have many fond memories of their parents’ love for each other. One that happened often was their dancing in the den to the sounds of Perry Como on the record player after a hard day’s work. They enjoyed entertaining and once their children had grown, Ann and Claude continued filling the house with family and friends from Sunday dinners to the annual Van Doren Christmas party. Ann was also the coordinator of most if not all of the local Van Doren family reunions. She was a natural at bringing people together. In addition to her love of family, Ann was an incredible friend. She traveled to all 50 states together with four of her Alpha Chi Omega sisters. She also hosted weekly bridge for years and a monthly book club that lasted 35 years. Ann was preceded in death by her parents, Austin M. Cowan, Esq. and Dr. Edwina A. Cowan, husband Claude A. Van Doren Jr., brothers Edwin and David Cowan, and sons Marc and Eric Van Doren. Survivors include her daughter Claudia Voos (Terry) of Manhattan, KS, son Kirk Van Doren of Wichita, KS, seven grandchildren, and five great grandchildren. A Celebration of Life Service will be held at the Wichita University Congregational Church, Friday, June 10th, at 10:30 AM. Ann will be laid to rest alongside her husband Claude at Maple Grove Cemetery in a private family ceremony. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made in Memory of Ann Van Doren to the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) of Kansas (https://namikansas.org/donate_now/ or NAMI Kansas; P.O. Box 675; Topeka, KS 66601). NAMI has provided support and resources for Ann’s youngest son throughout his adult life.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Phyllis Loie (Woellhof) Hartner&nbsp;(Feb. 3, 1929 – May 18, 2022) died peacefully in her sleep in the early morning.&nbsp; Phyllis was born at home in Oak Hill, Kansas to Ezra and Grace (Ford) Woellhof, the middle and only girl of five children.&nbsp; She grew up on her family farm and graduated from Clay County Community High School in 1947.

Following the end of WWII, she caught the eye of a handsome, local returning GI, and they soon became a couple.&nbsp; On Oct. 4, 1947, she married the love of her life, Roy Hartner, at her parents’ home, on the hottest day of the year.&nbsp; After a honeymoon trip through the Southwest, they settled in Clay County where they spent the next 18 years farming and growing their family.&nbsp; In 1965, they left farming and moved to Boulder, Colorado.

Away from the farming life, they had the opportunity to spend more time doing the things they loved.&nbsp; While Phyllis worked much of her life, often in jobs that showcased her excellent sewing skills, she and Roy spent many days hiking, camping and off-roading in the mountains around Boulder.&nbsp; Her love of travel was obvious to everyone who knew her.&nbsp; During their 67-year marriage, they traveled to all 50 states, Canada, Mexico and Europe.&nbsp; In later years, they took off in their motorhome to travel around the US helping build churches through the Laborers for Christ program of the Lutheran Church, Missouri Synod.

While her church was very important to her, her family was the light of her life.&nbsp; After retirement, she and Roy moved to Loveland, CO in 1999, to be closer to their grandchildren.&nbsp; She was a doting grandma, always welcoming arrivals with fresh baked chocolate chip cookies.&nbsp; Never one to sit around, she was always ready to lend a hand wherever needed.&nbsp; Her grandchildren will forever fondly remember her color themed Christmas trees, her love of Precious Moments figurines and her signature “sh, sh, sh” whenever things got too loud. &nbsp;&nbsp;Two years after Roy’s death in 2015, she moved to Longmont, CO, where she spent her final days.

She was preceded in death by her parents, brothers Gwain and Melvin, an infant brother, Richard, and her beloved husband, Roy.&nbsp; She is survived by her sons Rick (Rosemary) and Daryl Hartner, daughter Trudy (Mike) Loucks, grandchildren Marianne (Jeff) Hartner-Godown, Auliya McCauley-Hartner, Talia (Pete) Damrow, Hailey, Wilson and Joely Loucks, great-granddaughter Reina Damrow, brothers Truman (Leona) and Eldon Woellhof and many nieces and nephews.

Jennifer Lea Dohl, age 57, of Chicago, Illinois, died on May 17, 2022. 
She was born on October 6, 1964, in Lincoln, Kansas, the daughter of 
Herman and Arlene (Blase) Dohl. 
 She attended Bethlehem Lutheran Grade School in Sylvan Grove, KS, 
and graduated from Sylvan Unified High School in 1982. She attended 
Bethany College in Lindsborg, KS, and graduated with a BA degree in 
English Literature. In 1988, she went to work as a graduate assistant at
 Kansas State University, in Manhattan, KS, and studied Theatre 
Performance.
 Jennifer met her future husband, Donald Olsen, while at K-State. 
They were married on February 2, 2002 (02-02-02) at Emmaus Lutheran 
Church in Bonner Springs, KS, during an epic ice storm. However, their 
marriage was always warm. They celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary
 on February 2, 2022 (02-02-22).
 Jennifer worked for 27 years at a toy invention company in Chicago, 
IL. She was the office manager and served in many capacities. Jennifer 
enjoyed cooking and the entire family delighted in the wonderful parties
 she and Don hosted on their trips to Sylvan Grove. Events were always 
filled with good food, fellowship and a wide variety of their current 
favorite beers. They had a shared passion for motorcycle riding and went
 on numerous road trips. They put many miles on their Harley Davidson in
 the USA and also rode in Canada and Italy. They loved to travel and 
took several trips to Europe and a trip to Hawaii. Neither of them ever 
met a stranger and they made friends quickly in the pubs and bars they 
visited while traveling. Jennifer had a very generous spirit. Whether 
she was treating the nieces and nephews to the latest toys or the latest
 fashions, they always looked forward to her gifts. Jennifer especially 
enjoyed reading and always had boxes of books to lend or give to family 
and friends. 
 In July of 2021, Jennifer became ill with cancer. Despite a 
courageous fight, the cancer quickly overtook her body and life. After a
 brief period on hospice in Chicago, she traveled to Sylvan Grove for 
her remaining days. Don and Jennifer’s family thank Solomon Valley 
Hospice, Beloit, KS, for their compassionate care of Jennifer. Jennifer
 died in the family farmhouse surrounded by her loving husband, her 
family and closest friends.
 Jennifer was preceded in death by her parents, Herman and Arlene 
Dohl; infant sister, Erica Dohl; and older brother, Arthur Dohl;

Elroy Hammel, 88 of Overland Park died on Monday, May 16, 2022 at the Morningside Place of Overland Park.&nbsp;

Elroy was born to John Richard “Jack” and Edna Victoria (Hedberg) Hammel on November 11, 1933, in Clay Center, Kansas. He was the fourth of seven children.

Elroy had an entrepreneurial spirit, and his early years were filled with ideas for making extra money. Possibly his biggest undertaking was when he bought an old tractor and plow from a salvage yard in Clay Center and struck a deal with a farmer north of Clay Center to plow-under his wheat stubble after harvest. A big task, but Elroy pulled it off. Then, with no further need for the tractor and plow, he sold them back to the salvage yard. A few days later, cash in pocket, he hitched a ride to town and bought his first car—a used 1936 Chevrolet. This was the Elroy his family loved. &nbsp;

After graduation from Clay County Community High School in 1951, Elroy found work in Wichita, KS. He later enlisted in the U.S.A.F. He served for eight years and gained the status of staff sergeant. Throughout his military career he was a steward for military flights and spent time in both England and Germany.&nbsp; During this time, he began a course of higher education through correspondence from Maryland University.

After returning to civilian life, Elroy continued his education in Wichita where he received a Bachelor of Science from Wichita State University. During this time, he worked for both Cessna and Boeing Aircraft.

Elroy married Bonnie Jean Fahrbach in 1970. He then accepted a position with the Federal Government as a systems analyst in Kansas City. He and Bonnie purchased a home in Overland Park, KS where they lived the rest of their lives. Elroy retired in the mid-1990s.

Elroy was preceded in death by his parents, wife Bonnie Hammel, brother Eldon Hammel, sister Doris Lietzan, brother Loren Hammel, stepson Wayne E. Fahrbach, Jr, and stepson Jimmy R. Fahrbach.

Elroy will be lovingly remembered by his siblings, Gary (Carol) Hammel, Wichita, Jan Jewell, Trivoli, IL, Vickie McCann, Trivoli, IL and by his stepchildren, Cindy Scheinost, Overland Park, KS, Connie Fahrbach, Andover, KS, Tracy Fahrbach, Bel Aire, KS and Brenda Fahrbach, Durango, CO.

Graveside funeral services will be held at 10:30 a.m. on Monday, May 23, 2022, at the Greenwood Cemetery in Clay Center, KS.

Memorial contributions are suggested to the Clay Center Zoo and may made in care of Neill-Schwensen-Rook Funeral Home, 918 7th&nbsp;St., Clay Center, KS&nbsp; 67432.

Danny Lee Kirkpatrick, age 49, was born November 30, 1972 in El Dorado, KS. He passed away unexpectedly at home on May 7, 2022 in Chapman, KS. Dan was the son of Willis and Betty (Kimball) Kirkpatrick. His early years were spent in Whitewater, KS where he had fond memories of small town life. His family moved to Scott City, KS when Dan was a sophomore.

This was a difficult move for him, but he made lifelong friends, was part of 3 state championship football teams, and fell in love with his future wife before he graduated from Scott Community High School with the class of 1991. Dan continued his education at Bethany College while also playing basketball and baseball, graduating in 1995.

He was a comedian always, and could make almost anyone laugh. He loved a great bass line, cooking his famous chili and Dan-a-ritos, having the greenest grass on the block, American history, and reading five books at one time.
