Montrose fly ash contamination issue gains legal momentum
At the heart of the matter is heavy metal and other toxins found in groundwater monitoring wells maintained by Evergy on the property. Independent testing by the Stewards and other are residents reflect similar findings, which has led to several public meetings that have been held over the past week to find a resolution.
With that, attorneys for the Stewards have been joined by other Kansas City area attorneys and while not mentioned, more lawsuits may likely lead to class action status.
During a public meeting at the Benson Center in Clinton last night, it appears more residents are seeking legal counsel and additional updates are expected in coming days.
Obituary - Bowonn Edward Owen
Bowonn Edward Owen, age 9, Mound City, Kansas passed away Tuesday, January 28, 2025, as the result of an accident. He was born on October 26, 2015 in Fort Scott, Kansas. He came into this world the youngest of his mother Estell Owen. He was a bright eyed, smiley, baby boy. He was the apple of his family's eye. All his siblings loved him. As Bowonn grew, we realized we had our hands full. He was all boy. From the moment he could walk the mischief seemed to follow. He loved to be outside fishing and just enjoying life making everything an adventure, which he would love to tell you all about. I'm sure many of you have had him spin you a story. His spirit lit up every room. He will be deeply missed. Bowonn was preceded in death by his grandfather, Edward Owen, uncle, Lucas Owen, step-father, Curtis Peters, and baby cousin Abel Owen. He is survived by mother, Estell Owen, siblings, Daylonn Burk, Laydonn Jackson, Billie Griffith, and Izayah Houk.

The light Bowonn Cast with his electric and ornery personality will truly be missed. Rest in Peace our loving boy.
