Obituary - Chris Zurn

Chris Zurn, 44, of Adrian, Missouri, passed away on Sunday, October 22, 2023 at his home. Funeral services will be held on Saturday, October 28, 2023 at 11:00 AM at Atkinson Funeral Home in Adrian, MO, with a visitation beginning at 10:00 AM. Interment will follow in Crescent Hill Cemetery in Adrian, MO. Memorial contributions may be made to Adrian Fire Department.

Chris grew up in his childhood home in Louisburg, KS, with his father, Tom, and mother, Dee. Chris attended Louisburg High School, graduating in 1997. He would go on to further his education at the Universal Technical Institute in Phoenix, Arizona, where he obtained his degree in Automotive Diesel Technology in 1999. Chris' mechanical passions eventually led him to a position with the Missouri Department of Transportation in 2005. His hard work, dedication, and strong work ethic earned him his current role as the equipment technician supervisor that he has held since 2013. Chris was incredibly dedicated and found it hard to take time off because there was always so much work to do. His creativity led to two innovations that were designed to protect and promote MODOT employee safety on the job. These innovations would go on to be adopted nationwide, also earning him the Missouri Governor's Award of Distinction.

 
In 2005, Chris met Shawna. The two united in marriage in 2007 and relocated to Adrian in May 2008, where they started their family by having two children, Callie Rose and Thomas Roy. He was a proud father and enjoyed watching his children grow into the people they are today. Chris enjoyed going on hunting and fishing trips with friends. He was an exceptional cook like his mother. He enjoyed cooking and entertaining for friends and family including his MODOT family. Over the years, Chris enjoyed volunteering his time and experience maintaining and upgrading the Adrian Fire Department's fleet. He was extremely proud to be a part of designing and outfitting the newest rescue truck. Although he was a mechanic by trade, he could also be found enjoying his passion alongside his best friend, Tyler, at "the Shop." Chris was an incredible husband, father, friend, and overall human being.

Chris is preceded in death by his mother, Dee Greving. He is survived by his wife, Shawna Zurn; daughter, Callie Zurn; son, Thomas Zurn; father, Thomas Greving, of Louisburg, KS; sister, Niki Greving (Troy Myers), of Ottawa, KS; sister, Kellie Joeckel, of Belton, MO; sister, Heather Sturm, of Belton, MO; and grandfather, Charles Zurn, of Kansas City, KS.

Obituary - Corey Alley

Corey Alley, 35, of Eldon, MO, departed from this world on Wednesday, September 27, 2023. He was an adventurous soul who embraced life with an unwavering spirit. He left behind a void that can never be filled. A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, November 4, 2023 from 4:00 - 7:00 PM at Living Faith, 1121 SW Hook Rd, Lees Summit, MO 64082.

Corey was born on June 21, 1988, in Kansas City, MO, and grew up in the small town of Peculiar with his grandparents, Gary and Dorthy Peters. Corey was a man who lived life to the fullest. Even from a young age, he longed for adventure. He was always tinkering with something with such passion behind it.

Crazy Corrr - his love for the great outdoors was infectious. Whether he was casting a line into his favorite fishing spot, or sitting in the deer stand, his passion for nature was so apparent. His love for going fast, rock climbing, and scuba diving was what kept him living and loving life to the fullest.

At a young age, Corey started working as a sub-contractor for a railroad car refurbisher; this is where he found the love for welding. For several years, his love for welding grew and he decided to move on and start the next chapter of his life. In 2017, Corey decided that working and living at the Lake of the Ozarks was the life that he wanted. One of his life long dreams came true and he opened up A-1 Mobile Welding: Dock and Dive. Corey quickly had the lake memorized and did a ton of work for those on and around the lake. Not only was he known for the quality of his work, but he was also the only one at the lake who offered a lifetime warranty on all of the welds.

In the final year of Corey's life, he found his life partner, Karie. She brought a light to Corey's life that had never been seen before. They were able to share so many exciting life adventures and love together. Corey had no enemies. He was known as a fantastic teacher and friend. His uncanny ability to reach people in a deep and positive way made it hard to not love him. He always enjoyed the simple things in life, like walking along a creekside with his dog, or setting up a hammock and falling asleep next to a fire.

Corey is survived by his father, Todd Alley; his mother, Kathy Ogletree; his grandfather, Gary Peters; the love of his life, Karie Place; his brother, Derek Ogletree; his sisters: Kara Ogletree and Haili Smith; as well as, many other family and friends.

Dan graduated from Lee’s Summit High School in 1979 and then received a Purchasing Degree from Rockhurst College. He retired from Spire Energy in 2019.

Dan loved music and was recognized nationally and internationally as an accomplished guitar player in the Flatpick style. His many accomplishments include State Titles in Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Arizona as well as winning the Steve Kaufman Acoustic Competition in Maryville, Tennessee. In 1998, he won the prestigious Rocky Grass Flatpick Competition of Colorado.

Dan went on to serve as a judge in many guitar competitions including the National Flatpick Competition held annually in Winfield, Kansas. His widely admired master arrangements for guitar have been published by Mel Bay Publications, Inc., and Flatpicking Guitar Magazine. Dan and his wife Linda enjoyed 40 years of performances across the United States and in Europe. Together they shared billing with many performers including Byran Sutton, David Grier, Norman Blake, and Doc Watson.

Those who knew Dan well will remember him for his gentle heart and his sensitivity and empathy for the feelings of others. He loved all animals and rescued many. In addition to his passion for music, his hobbies included woodcarving, kayaking, camping, and hiking in the Rocky Mountains. Dan was an ardent supporter of the Rocky Mountain National Park Conservancy.

Dan was a member of the Old Mission United Methodist Church in Fairway, Kansas, where he and Linda served on an usher team until Dan’s health became prohibitive. Upon hearing of his diagnosis of ALS shortly after his retirement had just begun, Dan said, “Maybe God has another plan for me.”
