Bryan Dennis CadraBorn in Lubbock, Texas, Den-

nis Cadra found peace in heav-en on November 5th at the age of 68. A beloved husband, fa-ther, grandpa and brother, he is survived by his caring wife of 47 years, Yvonne Cadra; sons, Stefan (Hillary) Cadra and Dan-iel Cadra; daughter Kirsten (Ste-phen) White; grandchildren, Ca-mille Cadra, Molly Cadra, Kylie White and Samantha White; and brother, Mike (Lynn) Barbian.

He dedicated his life to prosecut-ing criminals and bringing justice for victims. He was particularly passionate about advocating for and defending children who had been abused. He was held in high regard by his colleagues for his knowledge of the law, his abil-ity to cite specific cases and his unwavering ethics. In his spare time, Dennis enjoyed telling de-tailed stories about his many life experiences; cracking jokes; and reading books about historical events, the vastness and mys-teries of outer space and political conservatives.

James L. JacksonJames Leonidas Jackson, 86,

passed away Thursday, October 22, 2015 in Wichita, KS. Jim was born August 17, 1929 in Beau-mont, TX to Amanda (McClur-kin) and John Curtis Jackson. He graduated from San Jacinto High School in Houston in 1947 and from Rice University in 1952 with a B.S. in Chemical Engineer-ing. Jim began his career as a chemical engineer with Celanese Chemical in Pampa, TX. He met Martha Ann Montgomery in a Sunday school class there and they were married in Shamrock, TX on July 3, 1960. In 1973, Jim and Martha moved to Parkers-burg, WV where they lived for the next forty years. Jim retired from GE Plastics in 1991 and they re-located to Wichita, KS in 2013.

Jim was as gentle as he was tall, and he approached life on an even keel. He and Martha com-plemented each other perfectly, with his engineer’s practicality and quiet strength augment-ing her energy and enthusiasm. They were married for 53 years and he was utterly devoted to her. During the last two years of Martha’s otherwise healthy life, Jim set an exceptional and beau-tiful example of dedication in his care of her.

Jim was a loving and atten-tive father and role model for his children and grandchildren. Son and daughter, Jim and Jean Ann, could always count on him to be there for help with math homework, late notice science projects, campouts and carpools, etc. He provided guidance and encouragement at every turn and cheerfully endured more than his share of piano recitals and marching band competitions.

Jim was handy around the house and more than meticulous with his record keeping. He en-joyed playing bridge with friends and he was a good player, hav-
