AGE 80 - PLAINWELL, MI
Janey Marie RICHARDS
Les COLLICK
AGE 73 - GUN PLAIN TWP., MI
AGE 79 - PLAINWELL, MI
Janey's life began December 13, 1946 in Detroit, Michigan. The daughter of John and Retah (McGinty) Bohl, Janey grew up in Detroit, the youngest of five siblings. After high school graduation and some traveling, Janey settled in Plainwell, Michigan. On September 19th, 1982, in Plainwell's Hicks Park, Janey married the love of her life, her beloved, gentle, soul mate, Jeffery Richards. For a time, they lived in Kalamazoo, finally settling in Plainwell raising Jeff's children, son Jeff Jr., daughter Amanda and loving grandson Kenny. Janey's pets were so very special to her - Zachery, Tanner and Lily. Life was a fun-filled adventure, sharing time with family, and friends were her joy. She also loved playing cards, visiting, camping, fishing, yard or beach parties, bonfires, hunting, golf cart rides, family reunions, trips back to Detroit for girlfriend weekends, and music of all kinds. Janey was always willing to offer guidance, loving care, kind words and help to all. Over the years, she worked in the finance world, in retail, banking, and production industries, also some local bar tending. Her carefree spirit and love of music took her to local music festivals, making friends wherever she traveled. Janey was full of love, fun, and kindness; she would gently keep you in check when needed. Janey's surviving family includes her loving husband Jeff, children Jeff Jr. and Amanda, grandchildren Kenny, Atlanta, Sheyenne, Abigail, and great grandson Tayden. Also surviving are siblings James (Rosalie) Bohl, Jerome (Judith) Bohl, many nieces and nephews (who lovingly called her "AJ") and cousins and friends. On Thursday, April 2, 2020 Janey died at home under the care of her family and wonderful hospice nurses. She was preceded in death by her parents, sister Judy, brother-in- Iaw Tiger Lane, brother John, sister-in-law Mary Bohl. Per her wishes, cremation has taken place. A memorial celebration will be held once the Covid-19 ban has been lifted. Those who wish may make a donation in Janey's memory to Wings of Hope Hospice, Allegan, MI, local food banks feeding school children or the charity of your choice.
Les passed away peacefully Tuesday, April 14th as His Lord and Savior Jesus Christ came to welcome him to Heaven. Les was born September 24, 1940 in Detroit to Albert and Mae Collick, graduating from Detroit Cooley in 1958. He is survived by his loving wife of 44 years, Jeanne Collick (Meyers), two sons, Alan and Russel Collick, daughter-in-law Stacy, brother Robert Collick, grandchildren Eryka and Ethan Collick, and numerous cousins, nieces, and nephews. Preceding him in passing were his parents, sister Joyce and brother Donald. Growing up in Detroit, Les spent much of summertimes on cousin Fenner and Pickett farms. After moving to West Michigan in the mid-1960’s with his mother, Les enjoyed friends and family where his storytelling and personality will be remembered by all that knew him. It was this personality that won his wife Jeanne, and small son, Russel, over after a 3 year courtship as they were married in June 1975, in Martin, with lifelong friends Roy and Jill Anderson by their side. Les and Jeanne together had son, Alan, in 1979. Les had a lengthy career in sales with wholesale lumber being his passion. Les’ numerous hobbies and enjoyments included music, especially the trumpet, golfing, woodworking, hunting and shooting, but nothing was more important than his friends. Les was a friend of Bill W for over 15 years and brought many others into the extended family. He took tremendous pride in his grandchildren Eryka and Ethan and their accomplishments, both academically and athletically. Les was always comfortable in his relationship with His Lord, Jesus Christ, and had been ready to depart this life for another when it came to be his time.

He had a big and loud personality and liked riding his motorcycle, playing poker on the weekends and watching movies. Most of all Jim loved spending time and spoiling his grandchildren. Surviving are his children, Ashlee (Robert) Rose and Tyler (Angel) Selby both of Otsego; grandchildren, Remington and Maverick; best friend, Peggy Selby; siblings, Marilyn (Glen) Rice, Dave (Annette) Selby, Kelly Selby, Candy (Tom) Burress and Mick Selby along with many nieces, nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews.

“CARRY-OUT SERVICE”
By_____________________________________ Rev. Dan Minor - revdminor1945@gmail.com
“As the Father has sent me, I am sending you” – John 20:21
On my way across town I count at least eight eating establishments with a sign out front which reads, “Carry-Out” (“Drive-through” “Take-out” “To Go”). They all mean the same thing. I got to thinking this is the way it has always been with the Christian faith.
Christianity has always been a “Carry-out” religion. • God called Abraham to carry-out God’s covenant (Genesis 12:1-3).
• God called Moses to carry-out the Ten Commandments (Exodus 20). • God called prophets to carry-out God’s message of repentance and faith. One of them pointed to the coming of the Messiah (Jesus Christ) who would demonstrate what it meant to live a life of sacrificial service (Isaiah 53:5-6). • Jesus carried-out God’s plan of salvation (Mark 10:45).
• In one of His post-resurrection appearances, Jesus commissioned His disciples (and us) to serve others (John 20:21). • Jesus sent the Holy Spirit to empower believers to serve Him (Acts 1:8). • The Church was born to serve (Book of Acts).
Service has never been about us. Someone made the distinction that we should be about “service” not “serve-us.” Americans know all too well that when disasters strike (such as hurricanes, floods, acts of terrorism, pandemics); people have a way of coming together to help meet human need. Governor Andrew M. Cuomo recently stated, “This is not a time for selfishness.”
In these uncertain times we can be sure that one of the best ways to serve God is by serving others. Each day is an opportunity to carry-out God’s love to others.
Prayer: Dear Lord, help us to honor You by helping others. In Your strong name we pray. Amen.

ADOPTABLE Pet of the Week! Check out REMY Remy is a happy energetic pup once you get to know him. Just give him a few minutes to get to know you and he will warm up quickly and be ready to play with you. He really loves to play fetch and will bring the tennis ball back and drop it for you to pick up and toss again. Remy would love a family who wants a buddy to keep them company doing fun active stuff like long walks or playing in the yard. Remy is an Australian Shepard mix, and adopters with breed experience would be wonderful so that they understand his natural herding and guarding instincts. Remy is two years old and weighs about 36 pounds. He was surrendered to the shelter due to the former owner's rental property's policy prohibiting dogs in the home. Remy will need to be the only pet in the home. If you would like to meet Remy, please fill out an online adoption application and ask to set up an appointment at the Allegan County Animal Shelter. Visit wishbonepetrescue.com to learn more. The Allegan County Animal Shelter is operated by Wishbone Pet Rescue. Sponsored by

We want you to know we will do our best to continue to publish our paper weekly so you can stay informed about important business information and relevant community news. Since no one can say yet how long we will need to modify our movements to best contain the transmittal of the virus, we will evaluate the situation weekly. We will post on our Facebook page by mid-week if there will be a paper that upcoming weekend.
Please be patient and keep in mind that calling the office will not always be the best option. If you do not receive a paper, and aren't sure if one was delivered, you have several options…
1. If you have online access, check our website at www.communityshoppersguide.net There is a link on the website to "View Current/Past Issues". Once you click that you will be taken to the online library of our issues for the past 10 years. The newest issue is uploaded on Friday so if you don't see one as the weekend passes, you can assume there is not a paper that week. Older web browsers can experience difficulties.
2. When you make your essential trip to the store and for gas, you can grab a paper at our dropsites or grab one outside our front door in the boxes there.
3. Due to altered hours & limited staffing, phone calls may not always be answered, but you can send us an email with any questions or concerns and we will get back to you as soon as possible. shoppersguide@sbcglobal.net
