WE WILL MISS EACH OF YOU AT THE PARADISE ALUMNI REUNION

125308               125496      Sure would like to know who the anonymous person was that commented on this post.  
7-14-14               7-16-14

WE WOULD LOVE TO RECEIVE SOME PICTURES WITHIN THE FIRST HOUR OF THE REUNION!
Who will be the first to send some?


We want each of you to know that we will not be at the reunion this year. 
I am in quite a bit of constant pain and traveling flairs up a lot more pain. 
Due to being in the hospital for 100 days when I had my liver transplant, I now have osteoporosis and because of my liver treatment (medication) I can not take any other medication for this.
I know that we will regret not going but hopefully everyone with cameras will help me out with pictures to put on the blog.
Please!  Send all your pictures to me at Onnalee@foundwoodcarvings.com  or if texting 620-341-3737  

Thank You!

We appreciate YOUR support by viewing the blog.

There is a small sized number at the left top of each post that tells how many have viewed it from the beginning to the day that each post is posted.  We are elated with the numbers. 
Again, Please send me ALL of your Reunion Photos.   

Since the last reunion, two years ago, we have thought that at the next reunion (2014) that we would simplify things and get a picture from the end of each table as people are eating.  The 2 on each side of the table on the opposite end of where you would stand with the camera would be standing, might have to stand up in order to see everyone at the table.
It is nice to get pictures afterwards, but this would more or less a  guarantee that we would have most people’s picture.
  
After the dinner, the best place to be is where the photographer sits up to take the class pictures.  I have asked for the class pictures in the past, but I have never received them.  Those class pictures add a lot to the blog. 

Have a great time at the reunion!

One more thing.  I am sorry that you will not be able to meet - or see - my "New Husband."  

Yes, his name is still Millard Harrell but I sometimes am shocked when I look at him. 


PARADISE ALUMNI REUNION - A GREAT TIME FOR EVERYONE!

Donald E. Barth, 
of Natoma, 
died on 
Wednesday, July 09, 2014, 
at the 
Redbud Village in Plainville, Kansas.

Donald E. Barth, of Natoma, died on Wednesday, July 09, 2014, at the Redbud Village in Plainville, Kansas.
Don was born on January 26, 1932, in Russell County, Kansas, the son of Henry Carl, Jr. and Grace (Matheson) Barth.  Donald grew up in Paradise, Kansas, and graduated from Paradise High School in the class of 1950.  He was united in marriage to Jolene A. Pfortmiller in November 1950 in Natoma.  From this union they were blessed with two sons Marty and Mick.  Years later Jolene and Donald were divorced.  Don spent a few years in Grand Island, Nebraska and Rexford, Kansas, but spent most of his life in the Russell County and Natoma.  Don was a jack of all trades but his passion and career was farming and ranching.  He enjoyed hunting coyotes, raising greyhounds, riding horses and going to rodeos.  He also enjoyed and spent many of his years working and competing in rodeos as a steer wrestler, calf roping, team roping with his two sons and helping as a rodeo clown.  In his later years he also worked at the rodeo as a pick up man helping get cowboys to safety.  Most of all he enjoyed spending time with his family and spending countless hours riding his horses.
Donald is survived by his two sons Mick Barth and wife Rhonda of Oberlin, Kansas and Marty Barth and wife Melinda of Hays, Kansas; 8 grandchildren and 7 great grandchildren.
He was preceded in death by his parents, brother Bryce Barth and sister Naomie Davison.
A graveside service to celebrate Donald’s life will be held at 10 A.M. on Monday, July 14, 2014, at the Mt. Hermon Cemetery in Paradise, Kansas, with Paula Hachmeister officiating.  Cremation has been selected by the family and interment of the cremains will follow the service.  Pohlman-Varner-Peeler Mortuary of Natoma is in charge of the funeral service arrangements.
