Morris C. Edelman

Morris C. Edelman, 84, of Sabetha, Kansas died Wednesday, April 5, 2023, at the Apostolic Christian Home in Sabetha.

Morris was united in marriage to the love of his life, Marjorie Menold on November 25, 1961.  Morris and Marjorie were blessed with two children and shared 61 years of marriage.  They owned a farming operation in rural Bern for over 60 years.  In 1990, Morris and Marjorie moved from the farm closer to Sabetha.  However, like clockwork, Morris drove to the farm every day to help with the farming operation until his death.  Throughout his life, Morris was an active member of the Bern Apostolic Church, and he served on various church boards.
