Darrell Lee Haggard, 89, of Saint Joseph, Missouri, passed away peacefully on October 26, 2025, surrounded by his loving family.

Born on December 4, 1935, in Horton, Kansas, Darrell was the son of Irma Norene Rupe Long and Kelly John Haggard. A standout student and athlete, he graduated from Horton High School, was senior class president and served as captain of the football team. Darrell was a remarkable four-year, four-sport varsity athlete in high school, also playing football for Highland Community College, demonstrating leadership, discipline, and an unwavering competitive spirit early in life.

He proudly served in the United States Navy from 1953 to 1957, honoring his country with dedication and integrity.

Darrell married the love of his life, Ardath Ann Koelliker, and together they built a beautiful life centered around faith and family. They raised four sons: Doug (Laura), Brad (Luanne), Brett, and Darren (Jeana). His beloved and devoted wife Ardath preceded him in death in 2012, and Darrell carried her memory with him every day.

One of his greatest joys was Sunday lunches with his sons and their families — a cherished tradition filled with laughter, conversation, and closeness. Darrell was immensely proud of his nine grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren, who brought endless joy the moment they stepped into the room.

A passionate sports fan, Darrell especially loved baseball. He spent many years coaching his sons’ teams, sharing life lessons through the game and enthusiastically cheering from the sidelines. He was a loyal Kansas City Royals and Chiefs fan and treasured trips to spring training camps and family vacations to Maine, Florida, and anywhere his family gathered.

Darrell’s faith was the cornerstone of his life. A devoted Christian, he gave generously of his time and heart, always ready to help others and support his church community.

He also possessed a keen and curious mind. A lifelong intellect, he loved reading, crossword puzzles, cards, and any game that challenged his sharp wit. Wheel of Fortune was his nightly ritual — a small but cherished joy that never faded.

Those who knew Darrell will forever remember his warmth, his humor, his faith, and the deep love he held for his family. His legacy lives on in the values he instilled: loyalty, perseverance, kindness, and an insatiable love of learning.

Darrell will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by all who were blessed to know him.

Thank you to the wonderful and caring staff at Mosaic Hospital, Long Term Acute Care Hospital.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Cameron Veterans Home Assistance League 1111 Euclid Ave., Cameron, MO, 64429 or Second Harvest of St. Joseph, MO.

A private graveside service will be held at Highland Cemetery, Highland, Kansas. The family will gather with friends 5:00 to 7:00 P.M. Thursday, Meierhoffer Funeral Home &amp; Crematory.

Connie Lavina (Mason) Jarrett, 83, passed away peacefully on October 12, 2025, at Belleview Care Center in St. Joseph MO after a long stretch of health challenges. She was ready to join her adored husband Bill in Heaven but still found joy in some simple pleasures: visits with her children, eating chocolate truffles and other treats from staff and family, drinking Diet Coke, and listening to her favorite classical music. Born on February 11, 1942, in Purdin MO, Connie was a multi-faceted woman with an unconventional and extraordinary mind, a phenomenally talented musician who could play the piano and many instruments with effortless virtuosity, lithesome dancer, voracious reader, prolific writer, and an oftentimes fun, unusual and lively mother, friend and companion. During her working years, Connie held positions in the advertising, fashion, hospitality, secretarial and cosmetology industries and received awards for her excellent work. She and her husband Bill were dedicated pet parents to many cats and dogs over the years.

She was preceded in death by her mother, Helen Louise (née Blackburn, formerly Mason) Harmon (d. 2010); her father, Robert Henry Mason; her devoted husband of 50 years with whom she traveled the world, William Lynn Jarrett (d. 2022); and her former husband, John Burke Pollock. (d. 2014).

Connie is survived by her loving children, daughter, Andrea H. Pollock of New York; and son, John G. Pollock of Kansas; her stepson, David Jarrett of Florida; and stepdaughters Dawn (Brown) and Leann Jarrett of Missouri, and Shawna (Pollock) Robinson of Washington State. She also leaves behind her brothers, Paul and David Harmon of Missouri; her sisters, Rita (Hess) and Sheila (Parker) of Wisconsin; and a very dear friend and former fiancé from years past, Thomas Thompson of Urich, Missouri.

We wish to extend our deepest gratitude to Bill and Connie’s neighbor Pam Felder, and to the compassionate Asera hospice team, especially Rona Miller-Ramseier, Tanya Ewing, Melissa Wood, Mika Luckow, and Chaplain John, along with the dedicated nurses and care workers at Belleview Care Center for the professional care and friendship they provided to Connie during these last years. The comfort, peace and practical assistance you brought to Connie and our family, including Bill, will never be forgotten. Your kindness, guidance, and support made an incredibly difficult time easier to navigate. We are forever thankful for the selfless care each of you provided.

If you wish to honor the memory of Connie (and Bill), please consider rescuing a cat or dog in need of a home, or donating to your local animal shelter.&nbsp;

Ken Gabler, 94, St. Joseph, Missouri, passed away Wednesday, October 22, 2025.

He was born November 24, 1930 to Rev. Carl and Mabel (Hansen) Gabler in St. Louis, Missouri.

On July 20, 1957, Ken celebrated what would become the beginning of his lifelong journey by marrying the love of his life, Helen Isaacs.

Ken found his greatest happiness and sense of accomplishment in his family. His wife, children, grandchildren and great grandchildren were his pride and joy, and he considered his role as a husband, father, and grandfather to be his most important.

Ken was a faithful member of Ashland United Methodist Church. Every Sunday morning, after service, he could be found sipping coffee with friends.

Music was Ken's passion, and his talent with the trumpet in his younger years led him on an adventure of melodies and memories. As a member of the Barbershop Quartet and Chorus, Ken earned the nickname "Mr. Easy Street". His pride in performing for the U.S. troops on U.S.O. Tour was matched only by his joy in singing at countless weddings and funerals, touching the hearts of many with his gift.

After Retirement from KFEQ Radio advertising and sales of many years, it brought new hobbies and interests to Ken. He enjoyed assembling puzzles, which would often become gifts for his loved ones. Fishing offered him peaceful moments by the water, and his enthusiasm for old car shows was a testament to his appreciation for the classics. Ken and Helen enjoyed going on family camping trips. After retirement, they traveled across the country in their motor home, exploring and making memories together.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Rev. Carl and Mabel Gabler and sister, Marlene Strodtman (Jim).

Survivors include his wife of 68 years, Helen Gabler; children, Greg Gabler (Kathy), Susan Alexander (Scott) and Lisa Kent (Scott); grandchildren, Mike Gabler (Lacey), Krystal Lisenbee (Aaron), Josh Gabler (Tara), Tyler Kent (Kaydee) and Jordan Bergley (Chris); and 13 great grandchildren.

The family would like to give a special thanks to Mosaic Life Care Hospice.
