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.

In that crash Randy suffered a brain injury that negatively and permanently impacted his interpersonal skills. Despite challenges caused by the injury, Randy remained active. From 1980-1982 he handled typesetting and ad design for the Platte County Landmark Newspaper in Platte City, Mo. and later helped with distributing The Landmark for several years. He also assisted multiple farmers in the Wathena area at various times. He mowed lawns and enjoyed doing kind deeds for senior citizens. His hobbies included gardening, reading local newspapers, coin collecting and he was a big fan of the Kansas City Chiefs.

Randy was preceded in death by his parents and by Trudy Oglesby, his longtime partner. He is survived by two brothers: Ivan (Linda) Foley of Platte City, who served as Randy’s legal guardian; and Dana Foley of Wathena. Surviving sisters are Gayla (Mike) Kiefer of Wathena; Nan Foley of Chandler, Ariz.; Lori (Kevin) Vertin of Wathena; and Trudy (Alan) Vertin of Platte City.

Randy’s wishes were to be cremated with a private service at a later date.

Memorials can be made to the Troy Pioneer Center.

Father Duane Roy OSB, died on the morning of May 8, 2025. &nbsp;He had received the last rites and the Apostolic Pardon and was surrounded by brothers in prayer. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;

A native of Stockton, KS in the Salina Diocese, Father Duane was born on May 11, 1941. the son of the late John and Olive (Morin) Roy. He attended Webster Elementary and High Schools in Webster, KS.

Although awarded a scholarship to attend Kansas State University in the fall of 1958, after discernment, he turned it down and enrolled at St. Benedict’s College. After two years of college, he entered the novitiate of St. Benedict’s Abbey to become a Benedictine monk on July 10, 1960, professing vows on July 11, 1961. He recalled that the prayer and work around the grounds of the Abbey as a novice flowed naturally from his life growing up on a farm. The same year that Fr. Duane entered the novitiate, his parents were honored by the Salina Diocese with what he called “the prestigious Catholic Farm Family of the Year award.”&nbsp;

Fr. Duane graduated from St. Benedict’s College in 1963 with a degree in Philosophy. &nbsp;He professed solemn vows as a monk on July 11, 1964, and was ordained as a priest on June 2, 1967, by Archbishop Edward Hunkeler. The summer of his ordination to the priesthood, he spent a month each at Sts. Peter and Paul, Seneca, KS; St. John’s Burlington, IA, and as a Hospital Chaplain at Fort Dodge, KS.

Fr. Duane always had a love of learning, and in 1967 he began graduate studies in library science at Emporia State University. During this time he also served as a weekend chaplain at Fort Riley in Kansas. From 1968-1971, Fr. Duane was head of the technical services division of the St. Benedict’s College Library.&nbsp;

From 1971 until 2001, Fr. Duane served in a number of positions at St. Joseph Priory in Mineiros, Brazil. &nbsp;From 2001-2002 he returned to Kansas for a year, and was pastor of St. Ann’s Catholic Church, Effingham, KS. In 2002, Fr. Duane returned to Brazil and served as Vicar General for the Prelacy of Cristalandia, Tocantins, Brazil under Bishop Herbert Hermes, OSB, also a monk of St. Benedict’s Abbey. In 2010 he returned to Mineiros.

In 2018, after nearly five decades of service to the people of Brazil, Fr Duane returned home to the Abbey. He worked for a time as chaplain for the Benedictine Sisters of Mount St. Scholastica where his friendship with the sisters and his ministry was appreciated.&nbsp;

In the last years of his life, with his memory diminishing, Fr. Duane remained a part of the community and would be brought to events. He seemed to be at peace with the community in which he had served Christ all these years.&nbsp;

Father Duane is survived by three sisters: Joan Rader, Linda (Randy) Cross, and Cheryl (David) Calvin, and two brothers, Roger (Desra) Roy, and Rodney (Christi) Roy.

Fr. Duane was preceded in death by his parents John and Olive (Morin) Roy, a sister, Sr. Veronica Roy, C.S.J., and brothers Ronald, Allan (Gerry), and Kenneth (Ruth Ann).

The monks will celebrate Vigils for the Dead and Visitation, Monday, May 12 at 7:00 PM in the Abbey Church. The Mass of Christian Burial and Interment will be Tuesday, May 13 at 10:30 AM.&nbsp;

Memorials in honor of Father Duane may be sent to St. Benedict’s Abbey, 1020 N. Second St., Atchison, KS 66002.
