Lee Maurine Williams was born June 22, 1912, to Ellis Lee
Williams and Maude Nourse Williams on a homestead north of Cope. She spent her
early childhood at Kirk and Joes, where her father owned the general merchandise
stores and she spent her time whistling for customers. Her father nicknamed her
"Bill." Later the "ie" was added to the name and has stayed
to this day. She often said Maurine was her formal name.
Billie learned to shoot the basketball with the famous Joes
Boys basketball team, who in 1929 won the national championship finals in
Chicago.
In 1925, the family moved to Limon where her father owned a
grocery and fabric store. Billie was the star forward of the girls' basketball
team, going to state tournament twice.
Billie graduated from Limon High School in 1930 and then
she and her mother moved to Boulder, so Billie could enroll in the music school
of University of Colorado.
In 1934, she and her mother moved to Greeley where Billie
attended the then Colorado State Teachers College, graduating in 1936 with a
major in elementary education. It was after graduation that a mutual friend
introduced Billie to her future husband, J. Lee Barnett.
Lee Maurine Williams and Jacob Lee Barnett were married
Nov. 20, 1940, in Colorado Springs and set up housekeeping in Alma. Lee was a
high school teacher and basketball coach in Alma. In May 1942, they moved to
Sterling and shared 64 years of marriage together before Lee passed away in
January 2005.
Billie taught kindergarten at Sexson School for 16 years
and retired in 1977. She loved the children and whistled around the school
Christmas tree and shot baskets in the gym. Her memories of the years at Sexson
were very precious.
Billie received trophies for her whistling at talent shows
at the University of Colorado, and whistled for summer concerts in the gazebo
on the courthouse square in Sterling.
Billie was a very active member in the Sterling First
Baptist Church. She belonged to Delta Kappa Gamma International Society,
Daughters of the American Revolution and Humanities Club.

Mimbres, N.M., Thomas R. Barnett and wife Merry Anne of Fauke, Ark., Mary Black
and husband Ken of Louisville, and Viki Elliott and husband Glenn of Reno, Nev.

Funeral Home, Woodsfield, Ohio, September 8, 2011
Bertha L. Burkhart, 90,
of Woodsfield, Ohio, died peacefully in her sleep on Wednesday, September 7,
2011. She was born May 28, 1921 to George M. and Celia M. Burkhart
Christman.
She grew up on the
family farm near Miltonsburg, and graduated from Woodsfield High School in
1939.
A devout Catholic all
her life, Bertha was a member of both St. John the Baptist Catholic Church,
Miltonsburg, and St. Sylvester Catholic Church, Woodsfield. She sang
in the choir at both churches. Everyone who knew her can remember
hearing a song either sung or whistled from her lips.
She experienced many
difficulties and tragedies during her life, but her faith always sustained
her. She prayed the rosary every day, and the list of those she
prayed for during her long life could fill volumes. She loved music
and dancing.
Always one to speak her
mind, Bertha was a regular contributor to newspaper letters to the editor, and
wrote several accounts of community and family events from her early
life. She also researched and compiled numerous genealogy
books.
While in
high school she met the love of her life, Michael N. Burkhart, with whom she
sent letters back and forth while he was a student at The Ohio State University. Their
dates always included ice cream. They were married October 15, 1941
in St. Mary Magdalene Catholic Church, Columbus, and shared over 53 wonderful
years of marriage. Throughout her life, she always put the needs of
her family before her own. Bertha knew the value of a strong work
ethic, and passed it on to her children and grandchildren. She loved farm
life and raising livestock with her beloved Michael. During her
lifetime, she canned thousands of quarts of fruits and vegetables, and cooked
more meals than can be determined for her large family.
In addition to her husband and her parents, she was preceded in death
by her daughter Rebecca, grandson Aaron Seesan, brother, Clarence Christman,
and sisters Estella Baker, Leora Claus, infant sister Melinda and an infant
brother.
She is survived by her children, Chester (Janet) Burkhart of Columbus,
Ohio, Michael (Judy) Burkhart of Marion, Ohio, Daniel (Marianne) Burkhart of
Marion, Ohio, Stephen (Diane) Burkhart of Woodsfield, Ohio, Chiquita (Thomas)

Dornbusch, Paul Edgar Dornbusch
Source: Bauer-Turner Funeral
Home, Woodsfield, Ohio, January 23, 2011
Paul
Edgar Dornbusch, 85, died
peacefully on January 22, 2011, surrounded by his wife and children. He died at
St. Francis Medical Center in Richmond, Virginia after a heart attack brought
on by respiratory failure. Born in the family farmhouse outside Antioch, Ohio
on July 25, 1925 to Wesley and Irma (Wohnhas) Dornbusch, he was the
great-grandson of John Jacob Dornbusch who emigrated from Germany in 1834 and
settled a few years later in Benton Township.
Paul attended grade school in
Antioch and completed one year at Ohio University before joining the US Navy.
He served his country during World War II as a radar technician on the USS
Pensacola, a heavy cruiser, seeing action in the Pacific theater. After the
war, he served on a repair ship, the USS Xanthus, for the remainder of his tour
of duty. He returned to Ohio University and earned a bachelor’s degree in
electrical engineering. While at college, Paul met his wife, Margaret Helen
Tober of Cleveland, Ohio, who he always called Toby. Married in 1950, Paul and
Toby celebrated 60 years of marriage with their gathered family this past
summer.
Paul spent his entire
professional life of 42 years with the General Electric Company; the last 36
years were in Roanoke, Virginia, where he and Toby raised their family. Paul
excelled in designing and tuning industrial controls, particularly for aluminum
and steel rolling mills. His career took him all over North America and around
the world to mills in Europe, Asia, Africa and South America. He became an
acknowledged expert in material transport systems and was recognized for his
work by Jack Welch, GE’s Chairman and CEO.
Paul was rooted in his faith.
He was an active member of Westhampton Christian Church-Disciples of Christ in Roanoke.
The faith community of Westhampton helped and sustained Paul and Toby when
their oldest daughter Kathy died of cancer at the age of 7. More recently, Paul
and Toby have worshipped at St. Paul’s Church–Trail Run, the church his
great-grandfather John Jacob helped found.
True to his upbringing on the
family farm, Paul was hard-working, modest and self-reliant. He had a deep
appreciation for life and a wry sense of humor. Though very generous to others,
he did not need much for himself. He excelled at fixing things and
could keep a lawn mower serviceable long after others would have replaced it.
He was always happiest when he could be busy and useful… preferably outdoors.
After he retired, Paul and Toby built a home on the family farm outside Antioch.
His hands and back, gnarled from scoliosis, limited his progress, but he worked
with patience and perseverance to tame the wild roses and brambles and reclaim
the land.
Paul will be deeply missed by
his loving family. He is survived by his wife of 60 years, Margaret (Toby)
Dornbusch, his children and their spouses: Susan and Ralph Snell; Jim Dornbusch
and Susanne Streubing; Jane and John Davis; Dana Dornbusch and Walter Piescik;
and Andrew and Susan Dornbusch and his grandchildren Katy, Anna and Emily Snell;
Tyler, Tina and Tristan Dornbusch; Jonathan Davis; and Manna and Jordan Wilcox.
He is also survived by his brother Willard Dornbusch, Willard’s wife Pam, his
sister Doris Starr, and a large, extended family.
Friends will be received from
6 to 8 pm on Friday, January 28, 2011 at the Bauer-Turner Funeral Home, 100 S.
Paul Street, Woodsfield, Ohio. Funeral services will be at 11 am on Saturday,
