John Pierce Gamet, age 88, of Ogallala, NE passed away on August 12, 2023, at his home in Ogallala.

John was born on April 20, 1935, in Kankakee, Illinois, to Dr. Joseph H. Gamet and Margaret Elizabeth Gamet. John's youth was marked by numerous moves to Army Air Force bases during WWII, where his father served in military hospitals. At the war's end, he moved with his family to Evanston, Illinois, and later to Janesville, Wisconsin, settling in Cedar Falls, Iowa, in 1949.

John graduated from Price High School in Cedar Falls, Iowa in 1953. He started college at Iowa State, then moved to Greeley, Colorado where he met his future wife, Kay Franken. They graduated together from the University of Northern Colorado in 1959.

John and Kay were married in St. Luke's Catholic Church in 1959, settling in Ogallala, NE where he worked for Goodall Electric, later TRW. In 1983, TRW transferred John to Libertyville, Illinois. When TRW restructured, John found a new passion working as an industrial rehabilitation specialist at Lake Forest Hospital until his retirement. John and his wife returned to Keith County in 1999, purchasing a farm and establishing a vineyard with sons Stephen and Patrick, eventually opening a winery in Paxton.

John was devoted to his community, especially to those with developmental and physical challenges. He served on various boards and was named "Citizen of the Year" by the Quad-County Support Services in 1973. His community involvement extended to the Ogallala Chamber of Commerce, Rotary Club, Elks Lodge, Planning Commission, Regional Arts Council, Hospital Board, Yacht Club, and St. Luke's Knight's of Columbus, becoming a 4th Degree Knight. He actively participated in faith study groups within his church.

John's love for nature, birds, and sunsets was well known. He crafted stained glass windows, many displayed in buildings around the community. He had a deep affection for his children, grandchildren, faith, and church. John's legacy of community service, love for family, craftsmanship, and faith will continue to inspire those who knew and loved him.

Scott Leon Kramer (1948-2023)

&nbsp;Pat DeWayne Redden, age 96, passed away Tuesday, August 8, 2023, at Ridgewood Rehab and Care Center in Seward, NE.

Pat was born on August 8, 1927, the youngest of 14 children, to parents Austin Earl and Mary Elisabeth (Mosher) Redden near Champion, NE.

On January 1, 1952, Pat married Berniece Straub in Benkelman, NE, and 7 children were born to this union.&nbsp; Pat was a husband &amp; father, devoted to his faith, and to being a good provider to his family.

As a youngster at home, Pat found pleasure working with and training his animals. He would ride his trusty mule to school carrying his lunch bucket.&nbsp; Pat learned animal care skills from his Dad and contemplated training as a veterinarian. Although this didn’t happen, Pat always loved working with cattle and horses.

Rattlesnakes he didn’t like so much!&nbsp; He readily killed any he saw, and kept a shovel handy, especially when prairie dog hunting with his daughters and their families. Pat was skilled in water-witching and was called upon to help establish good well locations.

For a short while after his marriage, Pat drove a truck hauling cattle. After an accident with a loaded truck, he gave this up and worked as a rancher and farmer the rest of his life.&nbsp; Cattle ranching was always the closest to his heart. Berniece &amp; his girls enjoyed helping with chores, rounding up and driving cattle, and doing fieldwork.

Pat was not fond of the dark, and told of an incident with his Dad, because he had fibbed about having checked a nest for turkey eggs.&nbsp; He didn’t want to go out in the dark, so he went outside and stood awhile, then went back in and told his Dad there were no eggs.&nbsp; Grandpa Austin knew he hadn’t been gone long enough to check and told Dad to go again. After confessing his fear of the dark, his dad told him to take a flashlight.&nbsp; There was an egg in the nest, and Dad was sure he would be punished, but instead, his father told him this was a lesson, saying “You have to be honest with yourself, or you can’t be honest with anybody else.”&nbsp; He sought to live by this lesson throughout his life, and taught his girls this bit of wisdom from their grandfather.

Soon after his marriage to Berniece, March 1952 began a year of grief for them, beginning with the death of his brother Austin, who’d been the only one of his Company to return from the war. By year-end, Pat and Berniece also laid to rest their infant son. During this time, they continued to help his mother care for his father, who was bedfast after a stroke, passing in March of 1953. Pat told his daughters of praying earnestly, asking God what His purpose was for life. Not many months after this, his mother-in-law, Rosie told his mother, Mary, “Come and hear what these men are teaching from the Bible, and the hymns they sing.” In 1959, at the age of 31, Pat chose to embrace Christ in his life, and was committed to that choice up to his death. Through the years, hearing his daughters sing (often while traveling) gave him great joy.

Pat is survived by his daughters, Lois Miller (Tom) of Verdon, NE; Linda Bush (Gordon) of Riverton, NE; Lola Beyer (Del) of Sioux Center, IA; Lorene Lanus (Steve) of Algona, IA; Leota Schutte (Mike) of Seward, NE; and Laura Heisler (Ken) of Humboldt, KS; 17 grandchildren, 21 great grandchildren and many nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his wife; parents; infant son, DeWayne; six brothers: Henry, Austin Earl, Jim, Raymond, Herman, and Max; seven sisters, Gladus Bird, Annie Hogsett, Bessie Redden, Jesse Martin, Mattie North, and in infancy: Ollie May and Ida.

Pat DeWayne Redden (1927-2023)

Donald Eugene Lengel, age 91, of Hugo, Colorado, passed away Wednesday, August 9, 2023, with family by his side at the Lincoln Health Hospital in Hugo, Colorado.

On a cold and windy day, March 28, 1932, Daisy Lengel gave birth to Donald Eugene Lengel on his granddad Knapp’s Farm, seven miles north of McDonald, Kansas. &nbsp;Two weeks later, Don and his mother returned to Colorado, where his father, George, had stayed to farm on the south fork of the Republican River and Landsman Creek. &nbsp;Don worked on ranches and farms until the day after he graduated from Idalia High School when a game warden found him on his trapline and suggested he come to work for the Colorado Game and Fish, ushering him into a lifelong career.

Don worked for approximately ten months for the Colorado Game and Fish at Bonny Dam until the United States Army drafted him to serve his country. &nbsp;He did so proudly as a Military Policeman with the 142nd Company and 558 MPs at the 8th Army Headquarters in Yeongdeungpo, Chungcheong, Seoul, South Korea. &nbsp;The U.S. Army honorably discharged Don eighteen months later, on November 30, 1954.

When he returned from the army, Don went back to work for the State of Colorado at the Wray Fish Hatchery in Wray, Colorado, for about a year. &nbsp;During his time in Wray, he met the love of his life, Maxine Crist. &nbsp;They were married in Burlington, Colorado, in 1956 and recently celebrated 67 blissful years together.&nbsp; Three children were born from this union: Rosalie Sue, Joie Ann, and Russell Dean.

Don later transferred to the Fish Hatchery in Walden, Colorado, where daughters Sue and Joie were born. After about three years, the state decided to close the Walden Hatchery. Don was then promoted to Wildlife Conservation Officer and given a district at Walden, where he spent six years before moving to Hugo for the next nine years. From there, Don moved his family to Trinidad, where they lived for the next three years. Finally, Don returned to Hugo, retiring in 1988 after serving the State of Colorado for 33 ½ years.

Don had many hobbies: gunsmithing, carving gun stocks, silversmithing, taxidermy, collecting Indian pottery and artifacts, hunting, fishing, and trapping.

Don is preceded in death by his parents, stepfather, and in-laws.

Those left to celebrate Don’s life are his wife, Maxine Lengel of Hugo; children, Sue (Bob) Dutro of Karval, Joie (Fred) Poss of Hugo, and Russell (Corinne) Lengel of Limon; 7 grandchildren, Curt (Mindy) Dutro of Karval, Collin Dutro of Karval, Eric (Rhianna) Poss of Hugo, Scott (Emily) Poss of Hugo, Lynn (Brayden) Connour of Torrington, Wyoming, Hilary (Tyler) Neff of Cheyenne, Wyoming, and Madison Lengel of Castle Rock, Colorado; 8 great-grandchildren, Beau, Blake, and Della Dutro, Cy and Charli Poss, Jax and Jace Poss, and Brynn Connour, and a host of extended family members and lifelong friends.

Memorial Service will be August 26 at 2:00 pm at Hugo United Methodist Church in Hugo, Colorado.&nbsp; Donations can be made to Hugo Fire Department or Hugo Ambulance.
