She peacefully passed away at the Moundridge Manor, Moundridge, Kansas, on February 18, 1998, after a lingering illness. She reached the age of seventy-seven years. Mother spent most of her lifetime in the Tampa, Kansas, community. Upon true repentance and confession of her faith in Jesus Christ, she was baptized into the Church of God in Christ, Mennonite on November 13, 1939, by Min. Albert Dirks. On March 24, 1949, Mother was married to Dale Rhodes. They shared life's joys and sorrows for thirty-eight years until Dad was taken from her side in 1987. Due to failing health she entered the Moundridge Manor, Moundridge, Kansas, in September of 1988. Mother was a soft-spoken person of few words; her quiet, faithful ways drew us children to the Lord. When Mother had disappointments, she accepted them, committing them to God. This enabled her to keep her song, even in distressing times. In Mother's later years her testimony was expressed in song. Her favorite and the last song we remember Mother singing was "Way Up in Heaven." Those left to cherish fond memories are two sons: Harry and wife Sheryle, and Darrel and wife Donita, Tampa, Kansas; three daughters: Glenda and husband Howard Wedel, Moundridge, Kansas; Gladys and husband Cyrus Wedel, Galva, Kansas; and Gaylene and husband Don Wedel, Stover, Missouri; nineteen grandchildren and one great-grandchild; four brothers: Irvin Dirks and wife Margaret, Tobias Dirks and wife Velma, Hillsboro, Kansas; Gus Dirks and wife Elizabeth, Valley Center, Kansas; and Melvin Dirks and wife Vera, Lehigh, Kansas; two sisters: Hannah Koehn, Montezuma, Kansas, and Martha and husband Dayton Unruh, Lehigh, Kansas; one brother-in-law, William Koehn, Burns, Kansas; one sister-in-law, Carrie Dirks, Montezuma, Kansas; also many other relatives and friends. She was preceded in death by her husband, her parents, one brother, and two sisters. Funeral services were held at the Morning Star Mennonite Church, Durham, Kansas, on February 21, 1988. Ministers Ransom Wiebe and Bruce Dirks officiated. Burial was in Logan Cemetery, Durham, Kansas. Obituary courtesy of FAG Contributor Jcarter.
