Dorothy Helen (Barnes) Watkins, formerly of Princeton, MO passed to her heavenly home on May 15th, 2025 at the Sunnyview Nursing Home in Trenton, Mo. at the age of 93.

Dorothy was born on December 17th, 1931 to William “Paul” and Fernie Eleanora (Bennett) Barnes in Trenton, Mo.

Dorothy grew up in Trenton, attending school and as a teenager worked at the Kress Dimestore before her marriage.

On October 16th, 1949 Dorothy was united in marriage to Sydney Irl Watkins of Spickard, Mo. To this union four sons were born; David Irl, Ricky Alan, Ronald Lee and Gary Wayne.

Here lifetime achievements included being a loving wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. She also devoted much of her life as a caretaker for family including both her mom and dad in their final years, her mother-in-law as she yielded to the effects of cancer, plus caring for her husband, Sydney as he dealt with ALS.

Dorothy also devoted a lot of time caring for and spending time with her grandchildren, going above and beyond as circumstances needed.

While attending a revival service with her daughter-in-law and newborn grandson, Justin, Dorothy rededicated her life to Christ at the Modena Baptist Church where she and Sydney became very active members. &nbsp;While at Modena, Dorothy taught a youth Sunday School class where all the children called her grandma, and once in that class they never seemed to move on to the next.

After moving to Princeton in 2003, Dorothy and Sydney became active in the First Christian Church where she quickly assumed the names of “Grandma Dorothy’ or “Gary’s mom.’

Besides her family and church activities, Dorothy was best known for her love and talent for sewing, making many quilts, cooking aprons, hot pads etc. She also enjoyed teaching her daughters-in-law the addiction of quilting, creating many heirlooms for her family and friends.

Despite her battle with dementia, Dorothy maintained her sweet loving personality to the end, becoming a favorite resident of the staff and nurses.

Dorothy was preceded in death by her parents, her husband and oldest son, David, &nbsp;two daughters-in-law ; Joy (Kilburn) Watkins and Carolyn (Owens) Watkins, two brothers; William Barnes and Larry D. Barnes and a sister Virginia Atkins all of Trenton. &nbsp;She is survived by three sons; Rick and wife Connie of Spickard, MO., Ron and wife Rita of Meridian MS., and Gary and wife Cherie of Princeton, MO., also by one sister; Janice Rhinehart of Trenton, Mo and one brother; Richard and wife Suzie of Maple Hills, KS.

Warren Charles Williams died peacefully at his Platte City residence on Thursday, May 8, 2025. Warren was born January 19, 1966, in Kansas City, MO.

He had a long but victorious battle with cancer, but most likely succumbed to the on-going medical complications caused by that battle. Warren met his many medical challenges over the past 25 years with his faith, his strong will, and a positive outlook.

He valued his life-long friends in Platte City, as well as his immediate family, near and far. Warren loved his relationship with God and was loved by all who knew him. He loved his animals, music (was a Jimmy Buffet Parrot-head!), all KC sports, hard work, and helping others when he could.

Warren was preceded in death by his mother Ardis, in 2009. He is survived by his sister Jennie and brothers, Matt and Bert, as well as nieces, nephews, and other extended family - all who loved him.

Special thanks to his friend Sue and family, for always being there for Warren over the past 45 years.

Memorial contributions may be made to First Baptist Church of Platte City.

No Services will be held at this time. A celebration of life to honor Warren is being planned locally by those closest to him. Date, time, and location to be determined. Arrangements by Rollins Funeral Home.

Warren Williams January 19, 1966-May 8, 2025

Harry Dean Lehew (son of Joseph LeRoy and Clara Grace Lehew) was born on December 7th 1938 in Horton, Kansas. He grew up on his family’s farm in Hiawatha, raised blue ribbon hogs for 4H Club, played football, and was high school class president. He attended Kansas State, where he was a member of the ATO fraternity.

After graduating college, he moved to Denver where he met Susan Claire (born to Ivan and Claire Bryngelson on April 20, 1938), his future blue-eyed bride from Billings, Montana. They married in a Casper, Wyoming hospital on October 7, 1961—following a severe car accident that injured Harry’s back prior to their previously planned nuptials.

When Susan was offered an elementary teacher position, they moved to Chicago. There, Harry received his MBA from Northwestern and worked for different ad agencies. After they had their two daughters, they relocated to Pennsylvania where Harry taught advertising for Penn State. They eventually landed in Minnesota where they lived for eight years and raised their daughters. Harry’s career brought them to various states in the Midwest (and back to Pennsylvania), visiting Hiawatha for Lehew family yearly reunions. Once their first grandkids were born, they relocated back to Minnesota, where they worked and taught and eventually retired, spending the remainder of their lives close to family. After Susan died suddenly of heart complications in December of 2020, Harry moved in with his eldest daughter and son-in law. Harry passed away, surrounded by family, from an aggressive pancreatic cancer on home hospice. He reunited with his forever sweetheart in heaven, before sunrise, on Valentine’s Day of 2023. Harry and Susan are preceded in death by both sets of parents and siblings, and many extended family members. They are survived by their daughters, Cynthia Kay (Nehrbass) and Catherine Marie (Wines), their two son-in-laws (both named Jeff), 4 grandchildren (Sarah, Jacob, Zakary, and Elijah), a sister-in-law (Judy Bryngelson), many beloved cousins, nieces, nephews and friends. They are, and always will be greatly missed for their unconditional love, devotion to family, encouragement, compassion, and their warm hugs, bright smiles, and senses of humor.

&nbsp;Harry and Susan’s ashes will be interred together, in a graveside service for family and friends at Hiawatha Cemetery, on Friday, May 23, 2025, at 3:00 pm. There will be an open fellowship to immediately follow, at 4:00 pm, in the fellowship hall of Bethany United Church of Christ: 303 N. 6th St., in Hiawatha, Kansas.

Virna Kathleen Libby, affectionately known as Kathy, passed away on Friday, May 9, 2025, at the age of 64. Born on August 6, 1960, in St. Joseph, Missouri, she was the seventh of eleven children born to the late Roy and Catherine Johnson.

Kathy’s life was defined by her love for family, resilience, and unwavering strength. She married Robert Clark in 1977, and together they had three children: Bobby, Matthew, and Angelica Clark (Mason Evans). In 1989, Kathy married David Libby Jr. and became a stepmother to Heather (Michael Fones). Together, Kathy and David, had two children: David Libby III (Brooke) and Jenny Libby. After her divorce from David, Kathy found love again with David Wiedmaier, beginning a long-term relationship in 2011, with whom she shared her later years.

Kathy took immense pride in her family, and her love for them knew no bounds. She was a loving grandmother to: Delaney Clark, Johnathan Clark, Bobby Lee Lynch, Cody Kelso (Jacklyn and their three children), Jason Kelso (Atheana Harsh), Katie Libby, Payden Fones, Tylar Clark (Bre and their child), Maranda, Alana, Kaleb, and Avaian Evans, Addilyn and Warren Libby, and Delilah Libby and Jordyn Conover.

Known for her no-nonsense honesty, sharp sense of humor, and fierce devotion to her loved ones, Kathy’s presence was always felt. She enjoyed trips to the casino, particularly playing the slot machines, and cherished the memories made during poker nights with family and friends. Kathy was often seen with a cup of Folgers coffee in one hand and a Winston 100 in the other, two constants that became part of her signature charm.

Kathy is survived by her siblings: Judy Hardin, Vicki Heavilin, Stephen Johnson, Terry Johnson, and Timothy Johnson. She was preceded in death by her siblings: Connie Brushwood, Roy Lee (Buster) Johnson Jr., Norman (Woody) Johnson, and Edward Johnson.

&nbsp;Her legacy is one of loyalty, love, laughter, and the deep connections she fostered with her family. Kathy will be deeply missed, but her memory will live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved her.

Funeral services will be held at 2:00 PM on Wednesday, May 14, 2025 at Roberson Funeral Home, 601 N. Alanthus, Stanberry, MO 64489. Visitation will be from 1:00 to 2:00 p.m. prior to the service.
