DUANE ROBERT GAYMAN
Duane Robert Gayman, 64, was born Aug. 6, 1939, in Denver, CO, to the union of Leo Gayman and Lucy Elinor (Cruse) Gayman Ijams.
Early in his childhood Duane, along with his family, moved to the Schell City area where he attended both elementary and high school, graduating in 1957. Before graduation, Duane began working outside of the home, first for the Hedrick family then later for Leland and Vera Arnold. Shortly after starting to work for the Arnold's, Duane moved into their home where they considered him their son, and he looked upon them as his family.
After graduation, he moved to Kansas City and began employment with Hallmark Cards. It was while living in Kansas City that Duane met Shirley Faye Gilliland. They were married Nov. 14, 1959, in Schell City. Two sons and one daughter were born to their union.
Duane and Shirley made their home in the Kansas City area until the late 1960s when they moved to Schell City, where Duane farmed, worked construction and in the mid-1970s went into full time ministry with the Church of Christ in Schell City. In 2000 a dream of Duane's came true when he founded Living Hope Fellowship in Nevada; one daughter, Lisa Shirlane Bowline, and her husband-Rudy - Tulsa, OK; his mother, Lucy Ijams - Schell City; his very “special” mother, Vera Arnold - also of Schell City; four brothers - Dan Gayman, Dale Gayman and Dean Gayman - all of Schell City, and David Gayman - Butler; five sisters - Eva McDaniel, Marla Applegate, Janet Ijams and Sherrie Ijams - all of Schell City, and Barbara Gayman - Nevada, with Pastor Marty Compton and Pastor Mark Harwell officiating.

Memorials are suggested to Restoration House in care of Living Hope Fellowship, 704 E. Hickory, Woods Scoles. She passed away on Nov. 29, 2003, in St. John's Regional Medical Center, Joplin.
Her family moved to Miami, OK, when she was a young girl and lived there through her school years. Deloris was married to Clifford Lee on Sept. 29, 1940. She knew he was called to preach but was willing to bear the difficulties and hardships of a pastor's wife. And, she certainly carried her part of the load for 63 years. As they moved from church to church across the United States during those years, their family increased as five children were born to this union.
Mrs. Lee was known as “Sister Lee” in many circles and was dearly loved and appreciated by all their church friends. She was known for her sweet, tolerant spirit and constant smile in the face of anything. Even in her last months at the nursing home, Deloris was considered their favorite resident because she was so nice.
