Obituary of David Ayers

March 7, 2025 Submitted Story Leave a comment

David Allen Ayers, age 76, a resident of Ft. Scott, Kansas, passed away Wednesday, March 5, 2025, at the Mercy Hospital Emergency Room in Joplin, Missouri. He was born June 7, 1948, in Mound City, Kansas, the son of Chester Ayers and Reba Henderson Ayers. David graduated from the Blue Mound High School.

Following high school, he worked for a time on offshore oil rigs in the Louisianna Gulf Coast and he also worked for the Tyson poultry processing plant in Iola, Kansas. David married Nancy Beerbower on June 9, 1974, at Blue Mound. Together they had two children, Kristy and David “Bart” Ayers. This marriage ended in divorce, and David was later united in marriage to Linda Dunfield in 1989. For a time, he farmed in the Blue Mound area, and he also worked at Klein Tool in Moran, Kansas. While working for Klein, David took several trips to Japan to help with training and maintenance issues. David later took a position with the Jayhawk Linn School District where he worked as a custodian and maintenance man. He retired from the school system after several years of service.

David loved being outdoors where he enjoyed hunting and fishing as well as taking trips on his motorcycle. He especially loved bow hunting and was a member of the Kansas Bow Hunters Association, where he often helped with youth camps and training events.

He was known for his friendly personality and generous spirit. He was able to couple these qualities with his love for hunting by being active with Farmers and Hunters Feeding the Hungry, an organization which helps provide wild game to those in need. In addition to hunting deer, David also enjoyed hunting for “treasure.” He loved going to flea markets and garage sales as well as helping his son, Bart, with his scrap metal business. David was a member of the First Baptist Church in Mound City, Kansas.

Survivors include his wife, Linda, of the home; three children, Kristy Ayers-Saunders of St. Clair, Montana, David “Bart” Ayers (Crystal) of Ft. Scott and David “D.W.” Wilson also of Ft. Scott; four grandchildren, Sabree Schnichels (Mark) of Moran, Kansas, Dawsen Dodge and J. T. Dodge, both of North Carolina and Kellen Geneva (Luke) of Olathe, Kansas and six great-grandchildren, Kamdyn, Kylee, Kruze and Khenzo Schnichels and Jacob and Lily Geneva. Also surviving are two brothers, Robert Ayers of Eldorado Springs, Missouri and Roger Ayers of Uniontown, Kansas.

David was preceded in death by his parents, two sisters, Cherry Lee Ayers and Mary Ann Agard, a grandson, Jesse Dodge and two great-grandchildren, Kaidyn and Kaize Schnichels.

Funeral services will be held at 10:30 A.M. Wednesday, March 12^th at the Cheney Witt Chapel.

Burial will follow in the Curry Cemetery.

The family will receive friends from 5 to 7 Tuesday evening at the Cheney Witt Chapel.

Memorials are suggested to Farmers and Hunters Feeding the Hungry (FHFH) and may be left in care of the Cheney Witt Chapel, 201 S. Main, P.O. Box 347, Ft. Scott, KS 66701. Words of remembrance may be submitted to the online guestbook at cheneywitt.com.

Inspire Health Foundation, CHC/SEK, and Greenbush Launch Spring Break Camp

March 7, 2025 Submitted Story Leave a comment

PITTSBURG – The Inspire Health Foundation, the Community Health Center of Southeast
Kansas, and Greenbush are partnering to offer a Medical Spring Break Camp March 18 – 20 for
area students. The camp is an interactive experience designed to spark children’s curiosity
about the systems of the human body and the health careers dedicated to caring for those
systems.
The camp will be hosted at the John Parolo Education Center, located on CHC/SEK’s Pittsburg
North Campus at 3015 N. Michigan.
The camp will run from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day, with separate sessions for different age
groups:
• March 18: Kindergarten – 2nd Grade
• March 19: 3rd – 5th Grade
• March 20: 6th – 8th Grade
Students will have the chance to create models and conduct experiments to discover the inner
workings of the skeletal, respiratory, cardiovascular, digestive, and brain systems. They will
participate alongside CHC/SEK staff, including dietitians, respiratory therapists, and nurses, to
learn more about health and health careers.
“Students will engage in learning and play centered around the best of what each organization
has to offer; skills in problem-solving, scientific experiments, health education, health careers,
and community connection,” said Leah Gagnon, Director of Inspire Health Foundation. “We
know this will be the first of many student learning opportunities in partnership with
Greenbush and Inspire Health.”
“Greenbush camp staff are always looking for people and organizations within the community
to offer unique, fun experiences for students,” said Emily Roth, Greenbush Camp and
Enrichment Coordinator. “When we learned of the new education facility at the Community
Health Center of Southeast Kansas, we instantly wanted to begin a partnership to educate and
engage students about the health industry.”
To register for the camp visit www.greenbush.org/camps. Inspire Health Foundation is a
subsidiary of the Community Health Center of Southeast Kansas. To learn more about Inspire
Health visit, www.chcsek.org/inspirehealth

Program: Sarah Poteat, Regional Manager, CarePortal

CarePortal has been active in Bourbon County since 2017. They work in most counties in Southeast Kansas. CarePortal is a care-sharing technology that drives action for vulnerable children and families. Designated agencies can enter requests for families in need. Churches who want to help families enroll in CarePortal, then requests are sent out to church members who may be able to meet the need. Child welfare agencies are struggling more now than ever before, this has led to fewer requests being entered. Schools can also be enrolled to request for vulnerable families. CarePortal can help coordinate for any tangible need. Requests must be child-centered, children in the home must benefit. Churches interested in outreach ministry are encouraged to get in touch with CarePortal. They would like to add two or three more churches in Bourbon County. Historically, the Bourbon County requests have been met at a rate near 90%, higher than many nearby counties. For more information and testimonials, visit the Care Portal SE Kansas website or Facebook page. Call or email Sarah if you know of churches interested in signing up or if you would like more information about CarePortal.

Open Forum: Nothing further came before the membership.

Adjournment: The next General Membership meeting will be April 2, 2025.

Prostitutes by Patty LaRoche

Recently, I have felt God calling me to minister to the prostitutes in the Las Vegas area. My granddaughter, Montana, had inspired me when she lived in Alabama and weekly took food to the dancers at a local strip club.

The other night in my Zoom Bible study call, one of the men spoke about his trip with his wife to this area and how it broke his heart. Young children would approach him and hand him their mother’s card, a prostitute looking for work. “Can it get more evil?” he asked.

God had been putting together the pieces for a few weeks. I had met two African-American women and am teaching them Pickleball. We have gone to lunch, and I have invited them to my house. We are becoming friends.. Both grew up homeless but met Jesus in the craziest of ways, and now their lives are forever changed. That was God’s first puzzle piece.

The second piece was when my son Adam was part of a sex-trafficking sting in Kansas City last month where 20 gals were recovered. On that sting, he met with an African-American gal who had been sent to K.C. from Vegas. For hours, he offered her hope and a way out of the trafficked lifestyle. She chose to return to it, but they are in contact. When she is ready, he hopes to have me meet with her.

And that’s when I knew that my friendship with my Pickleball friends wasn’t about the sport at all. At one of our luncheons, I asked them if they would meet with this Vegas prostitute, should Adam arrange a meeting. The way I figured it, two black, formerly homeless women who found their hope in Jesus could relate to this prostitute far easier than an old white woman who has never struggled like the three of them. They agreed to help.

And that leads to the third puzzle piece. This week, I met with Mike, a friend/co-worker with Adam and an individual who for over 20 years has worked to help the prostitutes/runaways/trafficked victims in the Las Vegas area. He shared how God had grown their charity and some of the miraculous recoveries they have had. He needs people who are able to speak about their needs, something I would love to do.

A group of teens from local churches raised money for an RV which is parked near the casinos. When the prostitutes are caught soliciting, they are led outside where they are offered food and support. Tattoo artists are on site to cover the tattoos marked on the girls by their pimps (a sign of ownership), a procedure that for some takes several hours but that gives the volunteers time to love on the girls and offer them a way out of their lifestyle. Sometimes the team parks a trailer by a motel frequented by prostitutes and offers them sandwiches and bottled water when they leave their rooms. Definitely something I could do.

Currently, this recovery team is training dogs to be part of their trauma unit. (Not my gift.) These labrador retrievers can sense when someone is hurting and cuddle up to them. Mike said that several girls have had their lives turned around when they felt loved by these animals.

The one thing I know is that God wastes no puzzle pieces, so I can’t wait to see how He fits me into this ministry.
