It is with deep sorrow and much love that we mourn the passing of Becky Vath of Loveland, CO, on Tuesday, November 23, 2021, at the age of 53 years. Becky was born September 17, 1968, to Louis and Mary Vath, the youngest of nine children. She was raised in Sutherland, NE, where she graduated from Sutherland High School. Becky moved to Grand Island and attended college then shortly after the birth of her daughter, Tiffany, the two of them made their way to Loveland, staying with Becky's sister, Rita. Loveland is where she would call home the remainder of her life and where her son, Alex, was born. Becky was a dedicated mother and sacrificed everything for her children. As a single mother, she worked hard for everything she had, but the greatest gift she gave her children was unconditional love. Becky was an active parent up to her remaining days on earth. She volunteered her time with their activities when they were younger and as adults, she made sure they gathered for a meal and family time as often as they could. In 2020, Becky became a grandma and the love she had for her grandson was unmeasurable. Although her time was short as a grandma, she had an unbreakable bond with Sam, and he kept her heart full of joy. Becky taught her children and grandchild to live a humble life and that family, faith and treating others with kindness is all you need. Becky was a true servant of God and just as Jesus, she showed compassion and love in everything she did. She was a devoted Catholic and her home parish was St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church. Becky volunteered as a confirmation teacher, and you could often find her helping in the kitchen. She also attended classes for several years to expand her knowledge of her faith and she loved her church family with all her heart. Becky's passion to serve others went beyond her family and faith. She was a foster parent to youth for many years. She opened her arms and home to the children and gave them structure, attention and showed them that they were not alone. Becky also served others when she became a caregiver for the elderly. She was a tender-hearted caretaker and the families of the loved ones she cared for noted Becky's kindness, gentle-loving nature, spiritual comfort, compassion, dedication and devotion. She has been told she is "an angel that walks among us" and she "walks the path of Christ." Becky will also be remembered for her love of cooking and music. She was an amazing cook who spent much of her free time in the kitchen. Becky loved playing the piano and would often sit her grandson on her lap as she played. She enjoyed listening to all kinds of music and adored going to the symphony and opera. Becky's warm smile and contagious laugh will be missed. Her selflessness and compassion for others will be a great loss. She was truly an angel on earth. She was preceded in death by her parents, Mary and Louis Vath; her siblings, Louis LeRoy Vath, Michael 'Heavy' Vath and Phyllis Brush; nephew, Robert 'Bobby' Vath, Jr.; and niece, Rebecca Vath. Becky is survived by her children Tiffany Beisner, Alexander Beisner, and Shannon Beisner; her grandson Samuel Renshaw and granddaughters Brittney and Heather Shafer; siblings and their spouses, Rita and Dennis Boyer, Robert and Janet Vath, Mary Lou and Berdell Beisner, Peggy and Kent Lenz, and Nancy Vath and Bill; 14 nephews and nieces; 32 great-nephews and great-nieces; and many other family members. Services will be held at St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church, 1730 W 12th St, Loveland, CO, 80537. Rosary will be at 5 p.m. on Wednesday, December 1, and Mass will be 10 a.m. on Thursday, December 2, which will be livestreamed. Becky will be buried in Sutherland, NE, next to her parents and siblings, at 2 p.m. on Monday, December 6 in the Riverview Cemetery. Visitation and book signing will be held prior to the burial at Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Sutherland from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Arrangements are through Allnutt Funeral Service - Hunter Chapel in Colorado and local arrangements are with Odean Colonial Chapel at C &amp; Sycamore.

Gary Lee "Scott" Moser (1965-2021)

Otto was born on June 8, 1923 as the third child of Jacob and Bertrice Fern Rector Frauen on the ranch he called home for 98 years, 10 miles northwest of Norden, NE in Keya Paha County. Otto married Ruth Loraine Foster on October 12, 1949, at the Methodist Church in Valentine, NE. They were married on a Wednesday and went to Colorado elk hunting for their honeymoon. Otto continued hunting elk every fall with his cousin Bob and many friends from Colorado and back home. He shot two, big 6-point elk over these years.&nbsp; Otto and Ruth raised four children; Monte Allen who still lives on the Frauen Ranch, Audrey Sue Buysse who moved to Minnesota after college graduation, Sally Ruth Conner of Valentine and Patty Lynn Barstow of Springview. As a family of six, the children all helped on the ranch. They learned the value of hard work, but also how to make time to enjoy what they liked to do.&nbsp; Otto always loved living on the ranch and riding horses. His first horses were Bally and Bill. He even tried his hand at rodeo competition in the cow riding at White River, SD and Valentine, NE.&nbsp; Otto raised coyote hounds and spent lots of weekends hunting with them and friends. Otto valued a good gun and he was a sharp shooter. He enjoyed hunting grouse, duck, turkey, pheasant, and geese to mention a few. He deeply loved fishing in many states, anytime he could go. His favorite fishing lake was Yellowstone. He preferred trout fishing and eating them as well! Seldom did he go on a road trip or vacation without pulling a boat.&nbsp; As a young boy at age 9, he skinned his first skunk and sold the hide for 33 cents. By the time he was 11, he had a trapping line and continued in the fur business until the 1990’s.&nbsp; Otto was a member of the Nebraska Fur Harvesters and lifetime member of the National Rifle Association.&nbsp; Otto enjoyed raising alfalfa, corn, wheat, rye and oats. He put in irrigation and raised even more crops. The crops were used to feed the cattle and hogs raised over the years. As a commercial cattleman, he sold Hereford and Angus cattle and hogs in Sioux City, wearing out three stock trucks. He also sold livestock in Ainsworth, Bassett, Winner and Valentine.&nbsp; Otto is survived by son Monte (Cathy), daughter Sally (Keith) Conner both of Valentine,&nbsp; son-in-law Neri Barstow of Springview, Monte’s daughter Robyn (Joe) Carey of Curtis, Melissa Stephens and children, Audrey’s sons Josh (Brecken) Buysse of Las Vegas, NV and Joel (Carrie) Buysse of Enumclaw, WA,&nbsp; Sally’s sons Alan (Kelli) of Davenport, FL and Quin (fiancé Allie) Conner of North Platte, NE,&nbsp; Patty’s sons Wyatt (Amanda) of Bluff Dale, TX and Austin (Sierra) Barstow of Stevensville, TX.

Eugene L. Johnson, Sr. (1924-2021)

&nbsp; RICHARD "DICK" DAVISON, of Ogallala, passed away Monday, November 22, 2021, at his home. Dick was born June 14, 1934, at Ogallala, Nebraska, to Herb and Mary (Wright) Davison. Dick entered the US Airforce on March 4, 1952, where he served over twenty years. His service would take him to England, where he eventually met and married Mona McCarthy on August 4, 1956, at Reading. Their union was blessed with a son, Michael. Dick continued to serve in the Airforce, eventually reaching the rank of Technical Sergeant. While he was always very humble about his time spent in the military, his service had garnered a litany of honors, as he'd fought in both the Korean and Vietnam Wars. Following his honorable discharge in 1972, the family moved to Ogallala, where Dick worked at Arnold Engineering for many years as a machinist. Despite all that he'd been through in life, Dick always had a positive and easy-going outlook. What might have made others swell with pride, Dick shrugged off as nothing. Dick found great joy in his grandkids and their friends who would come around the house; all would inevitably and affectionately call him "Gramps." The greatest pride Dick would come to show in life was repeatedly stirred from a place of family. Dick enjoyed hunting and fishing. In his more youthful days, he served in the volunteer fire department. Perhaps one of his fondest pastimes was taking a cruise around the lake or out to the countryside, which he did weekly with his niece, Shelia. Dick loved to have a good time, telling stories, sharing laughs, and cold drinks with family and friends. Dick was preceded in death by his wife, Mona; son, Mike; his parents; and brothers-in-law, Mel Dunn and Jack Green. Survivors include his three grandchildren, Jessica, Jordan, and Blake Davison, all of Ogallala; 2 great-grandchildren, Kelbey and Myles; daughter-in-law, Peg Davison of Ogallala; brother, Herbie (Sunnee) Davison of Lincoln; sisters, Karen Green and Carol Dunn, both of Ogallala; along with many other relatives and friends. A memorial has been established in his memory. Condolences may be shared at prairiehillsfuneralhome.com. A Celebration of Life open house will be on Monday, November 29, 2021, from 2-3 pm at the Prairie Hills Funeral Home in Ogallala. Interment with military honors will be in the Ogallala Cemetery. Visitation will be on Sunday, from 2 pm until 4 pm, at the Prairie Hills Funeral Home in Ogallala. Prairie Hills Funeral Home of Ogallala is in charge of arrangements.&nbsp;&nbsp;
