Waynard Bruce Anderson age 94, of Kearney, NE passed away on May 27, 2022. &nbsp;&nbsp;Memorial Service will be held June 3rd&nbsp;at 10 a.m. in the chapel at the Kearney Evangelical Free Church. Arrangements by Govier Brothers, Broken Bow and officiated by Pastor Tim Peterson of the Broken Bow EFC.

Waynard Anderson was born to John Wm (Bill) and Pauline (Polly) (Yeager) Anderson on June 4, 1927.&nbsp; He was 6th&nbsp;in a family of nine children and grew up and worked on the farm in Phelps County, for many years farming with horses.&nbsp;

As a young child, his family took him to Sunday School at the Emmaus and Holcomb Evangelical Free Churches. Then in 1944, the Holcomb Church hosted evangelistic meetings and out of 15 kids in their youth group, five of them including Waynard went forward to commit to follow Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.

As a young man he participated in local rodeos and parades and taught Sunday School.&nbsp; While attending youth group activities at the Westmark church near Loomis he met a young lady, Maxine Holmes. She also liked horses and farm and ranch life.&nbsp; They married on January 22, 1950, right after the morning worship service at the Westmark Evangelical Free Church.&nbsp; At her passing, they had been married 66 years.

They lived in Phelps County farming and ranching for their first 25 years of marriage, while starting their family, three boys and a girl.&nbsp; He was involved in Cattle Feeder’s Association, the Funk Lion’s Club, 4-H leadership, and served on the school board at District R-5 and was an active member in the Holcomb EFC.&nbsp; He completed his education and became a certified cattle buyer and bought cattle for local cattlemen throughout the area for many years. Waynard also enjoyed being a rodeo stock contractor with his brother Ward, providing stock for local amateur rodeos as well as putting on their own rodeos.

Following the dream of ranching, the couple moved several times, first to Loup and then Blaine County, then to Montana on the eastern slopes of the Rockies and finally to western Nebraska near Alliance.&nbsp; They retired and relocated to Broken Bow in 2008. &nbsp;After suffering a fractured hip in January 2018, he moved to Mother Hull Home in Kearney.

He has always been involved in church ministry wherever they lived, serving as deacon, trustee and usher. He also was an active member of the Gideons. His favorite place to serve was usher and loved to teach young people in the church how to welcome and encourage church attenders.&nbsp; He also enjoyed cooking and serving men’s fellowship breakfasts.&nbsp; He always felt that two essentials in life were coffee and ice cream.

Survivors include his brother and wife, Ward and Connie Anderson of Elm Creek and sister-in-law Sharon Anderson of Elm Creek, and numerous nephews and nieces. &nbsp;Also survived by his children, Daniel and Wanda Anderson of St Joseph, Missouri, June and Eric Petersen of Kearney, Wylie and Janet Anderson of Kimball, and Brad and Joye Anderson of Albion; ten grandchildren with their spouses, 33 great grandchildren, and one great great grandchild, Lucy, daughter of Trent and Sophie Shell.

He was preceded in death by his parents, his wife, Maxine and his siblings, Marie (Win Johnson), Louise (Dean Hendricks), Wendell (Evelyn), Doris (Jim High), Farres (Floyd Lind), Roberta (Truman Streeter) and Leland.&nbsp; &nbsp;In lieu of flowers, memorials are suggested to Gideons International.

Pericles (Perry) Theros, 57, of Mitchell passed away at home May 27th, 2022, surrounded by family after a battle with cancer. A memorial service will be held Saturday June 4 at 10:00am at Dugan Kramer in Scottsbluff with dear friend Larry McKey officiating. Burial will be at Mitchell City Cemetery. Perry did not want a traditional obituary and chose to write his own. The words below are his own.

I was born April 2th, 1965, to Theodorus (Ted) and Giannoula (Joanne) Theros in Bridgeport, Nebraska and grew up working on the family farm with my father and brother, Harrison. After graduating from Bridgeport High School in 1983, I attended Chadron State College, graduating with a Bachelor of Arts for business administration and a minor in Ag business in 1987. I married Mecky Gray in 1989 and welcomed daughter Morgan in 1991. I would later meet my best friend and we made our home in Mitchell where we would welcome daughter Kenna Theros and where I gained two stepsons Michael and Kyle Wells. With one heck of a party, we married November 27th, 2021. I have worked for various places in the valley but always seemed to land back in agriculture in some form or another. With each place I worked, it was the friends I made, the relationships I would gain, and the shenanigans we would cause that I remembered the most. These relationships lasted long after the job did. I was never a fan of not having something to do. I liked to stay busy and didn’t have a problem getting my hands dirty. I liked restoring tractors that I could use in tractor pulling competitions with many great friends that shared this hobby. I liked making old stuff run again. I liked making something out of nothing, as long as it was metal. I liked working in the epic gardens Andrea and I would have each year. And having my shadow in the form of our grandson “helping” with whatever I was doing. I liked to have BBQs and Holiday dinners with family and friends. Fishing with Kenna, Michael, and Kyle. Dancing with Andrea. The father/daughter dances with Kenna and teaching her to drive in the pasture. Hunting with my brother and good friends. And learning how to surf out at Lake Minatare with Sharon’s school of surfing. These are just a few of the things that consumed my thoughts as I write this and although it was not always easy, I lived a good life, and it was because of all of you that shared that life with me. Thank you all.

I leave behind wife, Andrea Theros, and daughter, Kenna Theros, of Mitchell; my parents, Ted and Joanne Theros of Bridgeport; Brother, Harrison (Sharon) Theros of Brighton, CO; Nephew, Alex Theros and Rachel Villano of Tampa Fl.; daughter, Morgan Theros of Gering; Stepsons, Michael Wells of Mitchell and Kyle Wells of Scottsbluff; grandson Wesley Wells of Mitchell; Mother-in-law, June Hesse, and brother-in-law, Robert (Michele) Hesse; and numerous friends I considered family.

Pauline 'Polly' Hays Hinman (1931 - 2022)

Lawrence Joseph Moloney, Jr (L.J. Moloney) was born in Chicago in 1949 as eldest son of Lawrence&nbsp;Joseph Moloney, Sr., and his wife Agnes (neé Stark) Moloney. He was the&nbsp;eldest of a family that&nbsp;eventually included 6 children. His grandfather was a lawyer for the city&nbsp;of Chicago sanitation department and a precinct captain of the Democratic party.&nbsp; His father was working for Purex Corporation.&nbsp; In 1955, Purex moved its headquarters to Southern California&nbsp;As part of the corporate reorganization, Lawrence Joseph Moloney Sr. was promoted and Purex moved him and the family to Whittier, California, a suburb of Los Angeles. The mid 50’s was a great time to be a kid in Southern California. There were lots of kids, three houses either side of his and across the street contained more than 23 kids most of them boys between the ages of 8 and 3. They played pickup sports games constantly, especially football, basketball, and baseball. L.J. had a lifetime of pure fun through his late teens.

L.J. attended grammar school at St. Gregory the Great Elementary with his brothers and sister. In 5th grade, he got a job delivering newspapers for the East Whittier Review, and made between $8 and $9 a month which in the day of nickel candy bars and dime soda was not bad. L.J. was an altar boy for St. Gregory the Great Parish. Mass was in Latin then and the altar boy had to know the responses because the altar boy spoke for the people. He served mass at 6:30 AM almost every day for 4 years. He served at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Devotions on Wednesday nights, Station of the Cross on Friday during Lent, weddings, which were always good for a tip, and funerals which were grim affairs.

L.J. attended St. Paul High School in Santa Fe Springs, CA, and was an offensive lineman for the St Paul Swordsmen Football Team. He attended Rio Hondo Community College in Whittier, California and continued to play football as an offensive lineman at the college level and earned his two year degree.

He transferred to University of San Francisco for a year, where he also played football. During his college years, L.J. coached basketball at St Gregory Parish, and coached youth baseball for the maverick little league in Whittier.

Around 1974-1975 L.J. enrolled at California State University at Humboldt (CSHU) (Humboldt State) in an attempt to finish his degree but needed to earn money to pay for it. He went job hunting to earn enough money to go back to College, and through connections with friends he moved to Denver, Colorado seeking employment. Through a job service in Denver, Colorado, L.J was offered a job on the Burlington Northern Railroad in Upton, Wyoming. He took the job, worked in the bunk cars, became a camp tender, and gradually came to realize that he thought working on the railroad was a ton of fun.

L.J. returned to Humboldt State for winter quarter 1975 and while studying at Humboldt State he met and began a relationship with Linda Jean Moore, who was also attending Humboldt State. L.J. and Linda continued correspondence for several years while L.J. was alternately attending college and working for the railroad in Wyoming and Nebraska. L.J. eventually gave up the idea of finishing his degree at Humboldt State, in favor of the steady income, physical work and everyday problem-solving of the railroad. Linda chose to follow him out to Nebraska, and they married in 1979 in Crawford.

L.J. worked for Burlington Northern, which eventually became Burlington Northern – Santa Fe, and then BNSF, for about 35 years. He built track across eastern Wyoming and Western Nebraska, became foreman of a bunk car gang, and eventually a Roadmaster and finally a track inspector. Between 1979 and 1985 L.J. and Linda spent time living in Crawford, Nebraska, Wymore, Nebraska, and St. Joseph, Missouri.

In 1986, due to a reorganization of the railroad around St. Joseph, L.J.’s job was eliminated, and the railroad offered him a choice of transfer locations. L.J. and Linda chose to move back to Crawford Nebraska, because Crawford was where he had the most fun in his previous detours. They purchased a house on Fourth Street, and soon after conceived a son, Timothy Paul Moloney, who was born on January 2, 1987.

L.J. loved being a father and he was a great fit for the role. He was big, strong, only a little bit dirty, gruff but gentle, coarse yet caring, a firm hand and he knew how to challenge a person just enough to make them grow. He was a child’s dream as a father, he always had time, he would always make time, and he was very much the man of the house.

Crawford was his vision of paradise, and he worked hard to serve his community. He headed the Crawford Baseball Association for about a decade between 1990 and 2000, arranged construction of new baseball fields after the 1991 flood damaged the old fields, and coached teams in the local league and traveled to regional tournaments. He coached 5 th and 6 th grade basketball for several years. He became Mayor of Crawford in 1994 and served 3 terms. During his time as mayor he arranged major upgrades to the city water system and sanitary treatment facility. L.J. retired from the railroad in 2010 and spent the final decade of his life traveling with his wife, spending time with his grandchildren, and watching sports on TV and live. One of his favorite trips was to go to spring training in Arizona.

He passed at home on the evening May 13 th , 2022. He is survived by his wife Linda (neé Moore), son Tim Moloney with his wife Claire, and grandchildren Ceci, Silas and Sage. Also by his sister Mary Moloney and brothers Jim (wife Marcia), GP (wife Ameé), Michael (wife Kathie), and Ed, plus their progeny.

A funeral service for LJ Moloney will be held at St. John’s Catholic Church in Crawford at 2 PM on Tuesday, May 24th. There will also be a Rosary service dedicated to LJ at 6 PM on Monday, May 23rd.

Donations in LJ’s memory may be made to the Crawford Baseball Association or to St. John’s Catholic Church in Crawford. Memorials can be sent to Chamberlain Chapel, PO Box 970, Chadron, NE 69337.

L.J. and Linda chose to move back to Crawford Nebraska, because Crawford was where he had the most fun in his previous detours. They purchased a house on Fourth Street, and soon after conceived a son, Timothy Paul Moloney, who was born on January 2, 1987.L.J. loved being a father and he was a great fit for the role. He was big, strong, only a little bit dirty, gruff but gentle, coarse yet caring, a firm hand and he knew how to challenge a person just enough to make them grow. He was a child’s dream as a father, he always had time, he would always make time, and he was very much the man of the house.Crawford was his vision of paradise, and he worked hard to serve his community. He headed the Crawford Baseball Association for about a decade between 1990 and 2000, arranged construction of new baseball fields after the 1991 flood damaged the old fields, and coached teams in the local league and traveled to regional tournaments. He coached 5 th and 6 th grade basketball for several years. He became Mayor of Crawford in 1994 and served 3 terms. During his time as mayor he arranged major upgrades to the city water system and sanitary treatment facility. L.J. retired from the railroad in 2010 and spent the final decade of his life traveling with his wife, spending time with his grandchildren, and watching sports on TV and live. One of his favorite trips was to go to spring training in Arizona.He passed at home on the evening May 13 th , 2022.
