To Seth’s & our circle of family, friends, neighbors, & acquaintances:
As we reflect on the past few days, we continue to be amazed and overwhelmed with the extraordinary acts of kindness and extension of love given. We’re incapable at this point, of privately acknowledging the various ways each individual reached out to us...so…THANK YOU…
Thank you if you belonged to one of those incredible response teams and poured everything you had into Seth and for us all. Your skill and labor of love did not go unnoticed. Thank you to the special individuals that came that morning to care for us.
A huge thank you to Jim and Meriah (Kinkade’s) for handling our requests quickly and working through a tough situation with simple grace and encouragement.
Thank you if you came to Red Owl and stood on either side of the road thereby forming a passageway which led to the cemetery gateway…We will NEVER forget what that welled up in us. And wasn’t it an amazing sight to set your eyes on… the fresh spring green landscape, that only God could paint? (Think: Red Owl Dam, grazing cow/calf pairs, REAL clouds with pockets of sunshine, birds.) Thank you for sharing that moment as we sang and as John, Ken, Levi, Cody, Wyatt, Loren, Larry & Gary, took hold of the cedar chest and walked Seth’s flesh to his cove under the 34-year-old cedar tree.
Thank you for being part of the gathering at church. As we entered the doors…was there not an overwhelming fullness of his glory as well as a full church?
Thank you, my sister and brother and their special 10… who after having just finished seeding one more field in the Red River Valley… drove in the wee hours... just to spend 8 BLESSED hours with us in SD… before returning. And so “Thanking you” seems totally small as your gift of music was totally HUGE... you all offered yourselves while Jesus’ comfort was offered & poured into many a broken heart. (And I might inject here…they weren’t the only ones that are CRAZY or have a CRAZY love for us... who came 100’s of miles one way & drove off to make a one-day round trip of it!) Thank you.
Thank you to the people that spoke (And the guys and gals that didn’t. There are several. John & I & you know who “you” are.) We remain forever grateful to each who prayed through the years and to each, who personally invested into Seth, thereby giving him a richer quality of life, he would not otherwise have had.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for food, food, and more food… the spread there on the table (please know I’ve read the list of individual names and hereby acknowledge the unlisted as well, and those who brought food and/or flowers to our house. And then there is MONICA… who unhesitatingly says YES! (Friday night) to processing (all day Saturday) BEEF for Sunday. Those are unbelievable “I’ll help you” words.
And until I went to church the following day, Monday morning, I was truly unaware of the several gorgeous flower, herb & plant arrangements… after seeing about a full year of dead brown, living color is extra special and refreshing.
And thank you to many- any- all who helped in various ways… those who served, cleaned up, going the extra mile. Some I saw... most I didn’t.
And then there are these ongoing visits, unlimited texts, and phone calls, as well as innumerable precious cards and extremely generous memorials…and hugs and more hugs. They all have this basic theme running…expressing to all of us Rhodens how deeply we are watched over, prayed over, cared for (dare I say LOVED) … and so we are gratefully abiding in this. We sincerely pray God’s blessings upon each of you as well. God help us all… we are extremely needy… LORD… may your strength come so we can face and endure tomorrow.
And Seth, I would’ve told you (just in case you couldn’t see from up there…It was clear to all down here... that…after God…you… yes you! … were the most honored man at the homecoming!)
“The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth and even for evermore.” Psalm 121:7-8
A few noteworthy additions:
By God’s standards- thou shalt not kill- includes life in the womb, our neighbor’s and our own. As followers of Jesus Christ, we believe Jesus’ blood covers ALL our sin- past, present, and future…and therefore is able to cover this sin as well. As we lay Seth’s body to rest, we are learning to rest in the promises of God and in the finished work of Seth’s Savior.
Benjamin Wyatt Gillham April 10, 2019 - June 27, 2021
Benjamin Wyatt Gillham was born on April 10, 2019 at 2:06 a.m. at Sterling Regional Med. When Brandee found out she was pregnant with him the scripture that became his life verses were Psalm 127:3-5: “Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from him. Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in one’s youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. They will not be put to shame when they contend with their opponents in court.” Benjamin means “son of my right hand” and Wyatt means “warrior.” Ben has been such a reward, a true delight, and brought pure joy to our lives. We have been blessed to know him and we are thankful that he was added to our quiver. He was our second miracle child that the doctors said we would never have following Brandee’s bout with cancer.
Ben was the fourth son born to Roy and Brandee Gillham of Peetz, Colorado and was fiercely loved by his parents. His three older brothers, Jake Timothy (13), Matthew Dean (11) and Waitley Thomas (4) Gillham will miss him for the rest of their lives.
We will cherish every single time we said yes to a hug or a “nuggle” (Ben couldn’t say his “s’s”). He was, by nature, a servant as he loved to help with any process that was going on. Ben was fiercely independent and despite being the fourth lil’ cowpoke he wasn’t only trying to keep up but wanted to surpass them. He could pull up his pants and get his boots on faster than his older brother and worked to beat everyone out the door.
When Ben would smile he would lift his little chin and say the loudest “cheese!!!!” in the room. He was not going to go unnoticed. His blonde hair and blue eyes were brilliant and he was so easy to love. We told him daily, “You are my favorite Ben in the whole wide world,” and this will always be true.
He recently told us he was not a baby anymore but a “big boy.” This child was simply pleasant to be around and enough of a rascal to add some spice to our family. Everyone who knew Ben loved him. After we told Ben we loved him he would repeat and say, “I love you “ho” much!” (again… no “s”).
Two years is not enough time. This pain seems unbearable. We wanted our son’s testimony to be his own, not ours, but we don’t get to choose. God’s character has not changed because of this extreme sense of loss. He is still good and Ben gets to experience heaven earlier than we ever would have expected.
Ben departed this earth on Sunday, June 27th at 5:44 p.m. at Children’s Hospital wrapped in the loving arms of his parents and surrounded by family.
Ben is survived by his parents: Roy and Brandee Gillham, brothers: Jake, Matt, and Waitley Gillham all of Peetz, CO, great-grandma: Jo Ann Pfaltzgraff of Peetz, CO, grandparents: Nita Gillham of Peetz, CO, and TJ & Rocky Best of Black Forest, CO, family: Aunt Jessica & Uncle Brandon, cousins Harley, Camryn and Roman Renaud of Black Forest, CO, Aunt Brittney & Uncle Nate, cousins Marley, Palmer & Emery McAllister of Colo. Spgs, CO, Uncle Daniel & Aunt Sarah, cousins Sam & Luke Gillham of Castle Rock, CO. Ben was preceded in death by his Aunt Heather Best and Grandpa Richard Gillham. There are so many other friends that are truly “family” that should be listed here.

Visitation will be from 5-7 PM Friday, at Harvest Community Church with a 6:30 PM prayer service. Arrangements by Bittner Funeral Chapel.
Cynthia, “Cindy” (Wieczorek) Foster was born to Wallace and Noreen (DeJong) Wieczorek on December 17th, 1956, in Mitchell, SD.
Cindy loved growing up on the family farm, homesteaded by her great-grandfather in 1882, south of Mt. Vernon, SD. The oldest of four children, she was a hard worker, daily helping to gather half of the eggs from the family’s 10,000 laying hens.
Cindy attended a one room schoolhouse two miles from home until the 4th grade, when a new two room school, Baker, was built. She then attended Baker school until 8th grade. She attended high school in Mt. Vernon, graduating in 1975 with valedictorian honors.
After high school, Cindy attended MidAmerica Nazarene College in Olathe, KS, transferring to SDSU, then DWU where she graduated with honors double majoring in Biology and Chemistry.
On July 7th, 1979, she was united in marriage to Arlen Foster at First Church of the Nazarene in Mitchell. To this union one daughter, Bethany, was born. Arlen & Cindy farmed near Fulton, raising crops and cattle. Cindy was involved in and held board positions within many community organizations, including the local Beaver Township board, South Dakota Association of Towns & Townships, South Dakota Farm Bureau, and her local church. She also worked for 23 years as the Miner County Director of Equalization clerk.
Cindy’s passion for agriculture and education were very apparent by how many years she served in those arenas.

Cindy also served as the Davison/Hanson County Farm Bureau president from 1997-present. Many students remember Cindy as the Farm Bureau Youth Camp leader, a program that was very dear to her heart. Ultimately Cindy served in some capacity with the American and South Dakota Farm Bureau organizations for nearly 40 years.
Cindy also served on the board of directors for the South Dakota Association of Towns and Townships from 1997 to present, she served as the president from 2009-2011 and as the secretary from 2013-present.
Cindy’s love language was gift-giving. Many remember her gifting them a solar-powered figurine, a piece of Tupperware, some Watkins products, a tote from 31 Gifts, or a gift from Mary & Martha.
She loved music, she could sing and play many instruments, but she especially loved playing the organ on Sundays for church and accompanying her Aunt Liz while she played the marimba for special music.
Cindy is survived by her husband of 42 years, Arlen of Fulton; daughter, Beth (Justin) Joramo of Boise, ID; six grandchildren: Kelsey, Ashley, Caleb, Allison, Emma, and Josh Joramo of Boise, ID; father, Wally Wieczorek of Mitchell; two sisters: Crysti (Perry) Luna of Mt. Vernon, SD and Cheri (Rich) Wyatt of Bismarck, ND; one brother: Curt (Leanne) Wieczorek of Mt. Vernon, SD; three sisters-in-law: Marlene Helsel of Dexter, KS, Sharon Foster of Spring Arbor, MI, Eulyla Foster of Fulton; and many aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, and cousins.
