Obituary - Beverly Ann Rabourn
Beverly Ann Rabourn, 75, Adrian, Missouri, died Sunday, September 2, 2012 at Menorah Medical Center in Overland Park, Kansas. Funeral services will be held at 2:00 p.m. Wednesday, September 5 at the Atkinson Chapel in Adrian with burial in Crescent Hill Cemetery, Adrian. Friends may call from 6:00-8:00 p.m. Tuesday, September 4 at the chapel. Memorial contributions may be made to the First Christian Church in Appleton City, Missouri.
Beverly was born October 28, 1936 in Adrian, Missouri, the daughter of Kenneth L. and Leola Maxine (Nelson) Horner. She attended Coleville School and Crescent Hill School and graduated from Adrian High School in 1954. During her senior year, she worked at the Phillips Drug Store on Main Street in Adrian. She then went to work at Hallmark Cards in Mission, KS. She accepted Christ at an early age.
Beverly married Jackie D. Rabourn on October 8, 1955 in Castle Rock, Colorado and they made their home in Aurora, Colorado. To this union two sons were born Wesley Dean Rabourn Thomas Leroy Rabourn. Beverly worked as a long distance telephone operator at the Mountain States Telephone and Telegraph Company for two years. On October 1, 1957, they moved back to Adrian and Jack went to work at the GM plant. They were married for 56 years and had a lot in common and enjoyed camping out and going fishing and taking the boys water skiing and enjoyed being with all of their camping friends and enjoyed each other’s company and had a very happy marriage.
Beverly had many hobbies, including riding horses, sewing, and participating in 4-H. She won a variety of ribbons from horse shows and parades. She also took an interest in sewing and hand quilted several quilts. She made her folks a 50th Anniversary quilt with all of their family members names and dates and also made one for her favorite mother-in-law, Daisy Rabourn. Additionally, a quilt with their name, date of birth and weight was made for each of her grandchildren. Beverly was very active in 4-H as a leader and taught 4-H cooking classes for several years. She worked for her brother, Jack Horner, who had Horner’s Carpet and Upholstery business in Butler, Missouri, and learned how to do upholstery work. Later, she opened Rabourn’s Upholstery in Adrian and was in business for 14 years. After she sold her shop, her sister Patsy introduced her to oil painting. She was very artistic with her painting and won many ribbons at county fairs.
At the age of 40, she took an interest in learning to play the violin. Jack took her to lessons every week for a couple of years. She played with the “Over the Hill Drifters” band for five years and several other places with other musicians. In 1987, the “Cross County Country Band” was formed. They are still playing the great music that she loved so well. She dearly loved being around the people that came to their dances, as they were just like a large family. In 1987, Jack and Beverly took a great interest in wood crafts and traveled to several states displaying their workmanship until 2007.
Beverly was preceded in death by her parents, Kenneth and Leola Horner and one sister, Patsy Jackson of Woodbury, Texas. She is survived by her husband, Jack Rabourn of the home; two sons, Wesley Rabourn and wife, Jamie, Adrian, Missouri and Tommy Rabourn and wife, Shirley, Hermitage, Tennessee; two brothers, Jack Horner and wife, Loraine, Ed Horner and wife, Shirley, all of Adrian, Missouri; brother-in-law, Bernie Jackson of Hillsboro, Texas; a host of grandchildren, Dustin Rabourn, Brianne Rabourn, Valerie Woerner, Josh Rabourn and wife, Amanda, Jake Rabourn, Thonan Rabourn, Macey Rabourn, Mike Volner, Scott Volner and Brittney Volner; 6 great-grandchildren, Mason Rabourn, Kaden Woerner, Jayvion Hamilton, Noah Rabourn, Bailee Rabourn and Leland Volner and many nieces and nephews.

It’s Cholesterol Awareness Month: Do You Know Your Numbers?
From Tammy Roberts, Health and Nutrition Education Specialist, Missouri Extension
September is Cholesterol Awareness Month. It serves as a good reminder for you to learn your cholesterol numbers because high cholesterol is one of the major controllable risk factors for coronary heart disease, heart attack and stroke.
“When you get the results of your cholesterol blood test you should have your total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol and LDL cholesterol” said Tammy Roberts from University of Missouri Extension. “The desirable total cholesterol level is 200 mg/dL or below.”
