Esbon
By Glenna F ago
As I sit here this Saturday afternoon
and I start to write this news column, I
think to myself “Did anything happen
this week?” I hope when I look at my
notes, I will change my mind.
Last Tuesday John and Lila Frost
were in Salina where John consulted
his cancer doctor.
Last Wednesday evening the Guar-
anty State Bank bowlers, Eula Silsby,
Inna Fogo, Dee Reed and Pat Ander-
son, went to the bowling alley in Red
Cloud. There was a birthday among
the bowlers so they ate dessert also.
One of the regulars on the team is Alice
Belden, Burr Oak, Alice was missing
this time as she had a much more
important issue that night. Her hus—
band, Dave, had been notified that day
that there was a compatible liver avail-
able for him. The transplant was com-
pleted and as of this writing we are told
that all went well and has continued so.
Much more important than a night of
bowling.
Joan and Wayne Broeckelman went
to Cloud County Community College
last Wednesday night to watch a girls
basketball game between Cloud County
and Burton County Community Col-
lege. The Broeckelmans’ granddaugh—
ter, Caley Broeckelman, starts for
Cloud County and that night they won
the game.
Last Tuesday Lila Frost went to
Belleville to see Colin White, one of
her grandsons. He was feeling a bit
ouchy and not able to go to school.
Tyler Broeckelman had his second
treatment in Boston, Mass., last Mon-
day. He and his step father returned to
Kansas last Tuesday. He will have two
more treatments before they do a scan
to determine how things are going.
“Here I Am Lord.”
It’s a boy, and his name is Wyatt
Alan. A son was born Friday to our
good church members, Beth and Brett
Walker. We’ll no doubt meet him in
church in the near future. Gale B urgess
was at the door to greet each and every-
oneasrthey entered the Esbon United
Methodist Church Sunday morning.
Pastor Gerry Sharp was the minister.
Wanda Thummel and Janet Kriley were
the musicians. Lily and Clair Walker
assisted by cousin, Dereck Gillett, were
the acolytes. Dereck and Kim Gillett
were the ushers. Guests were Terry
and Marlene Walker. While talking to
the children Pastor Gerry spoke up of
the new baby and how that event re-
minds us of God’ 5 love and his miracles.
During her special, Deanna Underwood
read of how you can mix undesirable
items together and come up with a
much wanted product. Pastor Gerry
chose verses from I Corinthians for his
scripture and titled his sermon. “Just
Love Them.” Pastor said that a person
may not be the best speaker in the
pulpit, but his mingling with and giv-
ing to the people, say like his hospital
visits are excellent, which will make
him a much loved minister. Go accord-
ing to God’s work, don’t just love your
friends, but also your enemies. As Jesus
said while on the cross “Forgive them
because they know not what they do.”
Christianity will spread because the
message is passed on and on. During
joys and concerns thanks were given
for the birth of the new baby boy and
thanks for each and everyone of the
other grandchildren and of the joys of
them in our lives. Concerns were for
the death of a loved o e and prayers
were lifted for a friend 0 has surgery
planned for the new future. Next
month’s church duties go to Lane Un-
derwood and specials to Janet Kriley.
Fellowship followed church with Paula
Voboril and Alyce Gillett hosting.
Ione Shipley attended the Pioneer
Dinner at Lebanon Saturday, where
she ate the biscuits and gravy and ev-
erything that went with them.
Wanda Thummel filled the pulpitat
Burr Oak United Methodist Church
Sunday morning.
Eula Silsby along with the others on
her bowling team went Saturday to
Red Cloud where they were involved
in a bowling tournament. Sunday Sam
Gillett reported at the same alley at 2
pm. as he took part in the men’s tour—
nament.
It was a success as more than 115
individuals registered and probably
many never saw the registration note-
book when they entered for the Sunday
Soup Lunch. This event was spon—
sored by the many volunteers who keep
things operating in the City of Esbon.
Some of the people] saw there were
from Esbon of course, Burr Oak, Gib-
bon, Mankato, Lebanon, Ionia, Beloit,
McPherson and Jewell. There were 1 1
kinds of soup: vegetable, southwest
chicken barley, tomato, chili, spicy
chili, ham and beans with corn bread,
taco, taco vegetable, potato, broccoli
and cheese, chicken and noodle. I saw
egg and cheese, toasted cheese, ham
and cheese, and ham salad sandwiches.
Some of the desserts filling that table
were pies, cakes, cookies, donuts, cin-
namon rolls, Jell-O desserts and
kolaches. All along with your desired
drink. Dianna Willitts baked and deco-
rated two chocolate cakes which were
decorated in an unbelievable fashion.
These were part of a silent auction.
There were a lot of women who volunr. - .7
teered their time during the day; Joan
Broeckelman, Kris Kindler, Irma Fogo,
Barb Mizner, Pam Hajny, Dianna Wil-

Ed and Neva Lewis, McPherson,
came this direction Sunday and stopped
at the community center for a brief
visit before going on to Red Cloud to
see Ed’s father, Kenneth Lewis. Ken-
neth is in the hospital fighting pneu-
monia. I especially take notice of this
as Kenneth and I were classmates. Both

Remington 0rd celebrated his fifth
birthday with a party at his home in
, Red Cloud Friday evening. After open-
ing his gifts, as those attending sang
Happy Birthday, Remi blew out the
candles on his Minion cake which was
baked by/his aunt, Patsy Ord. Attend-
ing the party were Jeff, Diana and
Kasey O/d, Keller, Patsy, Olivia, Tho-
mas and'Kooper 0rd, all of rural Guide
Rockf Darin, Amanda and Lilly Barnes,
Cortney Hendrickson and Alex Ideus,
hosts Kyle, Paisley and Jerzie 0rd and
Katie Mason, all of Red Cloud; Jim
and Dana White, Grand Island; Kendra
and Gracelyn Warren,Columbus, Neb.;
and Cliff and Glenny Barnes.
Doug, Wanda and Skylar Frasier
were in Wichita for the weekend and
attended the fourth birthday party hon-
oring J ayden Frasier at the home of his
parents,Caleb and Lauren, and brother,
Jaxson. The party theme was Super
Mario. Jayden enjoyed opening his
many gifts and sharing his Mario cake
with everyone. Josh, Amanda, Luke
and Emma Frasier, Hastings, stopped
to visit Doug and Wanda Sunday after-
noon en route from the party in Wichita.
Cliff and Glenny Barnes accompa-
nied Jeff and Diana 0rd, rural Guide
Rock, to Harvard Saturday morning to
attend basketball games between the
Red Cloud third and fourth grade girls
and those from Harvard. Participating
on the third grade Red Cloud team
were Olivia 0rd and Lilly Barnes. Pais-
ley 0rd played on the fourth grade
teamandvscored the. only four points
for the Red Cloud team. LaterCliff and
131 Years of
Glenny, Jeff and Diana, did some shop-
ping in Hastings and had lunch at a
pizza restaurant before returning home.
Brynlee Manning joined Richard
Cox for children’s church at the Chris-
tian Church Sunday. Richard and
Brynlee talked about what Jesus wants
for each of us. His message for adults
was entitled “Life is a Roller Coaster.”
His selected scripture reading was Acts
9: 1 -5 and 10-16. This portion of scrip—
ture tells about Saul and how Jesus
called him to be a messenger to the
Gentiles and how he became Paul.
Saul originally was a persecutor of the
followers of Jesus. After his meeting
with Jesus, he became a promoter. Saul
who became Paul certainly had ups
and downs in his lifetime. The pastor
said we also have ups and downs in our
lives. We have to decide whether we
will let those downs stop us or if we
will climb over them and learn from
the defeats. We can be humbled by
many things. The loss of a loved one or
loss of a job can cause us to become
humbled. It is hard for us to sometimes
admit that something has gone wrong
in our way of doing things. Like Saul
we need to submit our will to Jesus and
obey his teaching. Only the Divine can
change people. God has a plan for our
lives and that plan includes spreading
the gospel just as Paul did. Life is full
of ups and downs but Jesus Christ can
make us into better people every day.
Following the morning service Cliff
and Glenny Barnes served breakfast
pizza, fruit pizza, muffins, coffee and
juice in observance of Birthday Sun-
day.
John 0rd, Steffen Barnes, Austin
Manchanthasouk, Red Cloud, Jeff,
Diana and Kasey 0rd and his friend
Danea, and Cliff and Glenny Barnes
all had lunch together at a Red Cloud
restaurant Sunday.
Long time Burr Oak resident Bill
Dillon died last week at the Jewell
County Hospital Long Term Care. Bill
was well known for the many years he
worked for the Jewell County High-
way Department. His chil ren, Dr.
Lonnie Dillon and Opal C lbertson,
survive him.
Weather forecasters for several days
advised area residents to be prepared
for the possibility of a winter storm
Tuesday.Sure enough residents ofBurr
Oak and the surrounding area woke up
to a beautiful winter wonderland Tues-
day morning. With the snow still fall-
ing by mid morning a final amounts
can not be reported at submission time.
Rock Hills Schools were closed. While
it looked beautiful outside, if one had
to be out in it, it was not so nice.

cheon at the Burr Oak Community
