He graduated from Gothenburg High School in 1950.&nbsp; On June 20th, 1954, Jim married his beautiful wife of 62 years, Marilyn.&nbsp; They were married at Svea Dal Covenant Church north of Brady.&nbsp; During their marriage, they raised four children on the family farm, which has been in the family for over 100 years. Over the years, Jim enjoyed attending as many of the activities of his children and grandchildren that he could.&nbsp; Jim was a devoted steward of the land.&nbsp; As a lifelong farmer, he cared for the land to ensure that it would be fertile and healthy for future generations.&nbsp; Jim’s true love and calling was cattle ranching and cattle feeding. He always said that he farmed so that he could feed his cattle! Jim loved going to sale barns to buy cattle to fill his feedlot, he was always buyer number 11. He made many good friends over the years while he was buying cattle! Jim took pride in buying “junk cattle” and turning them into beautiful fats.

Jim was an active member of Svea Covenant Church until his death. He served as a deacon, a board member, and chairman of the church. He enjoyed giving of his time as a school board member and 4-H Leader in the Wild Horse Valley Community.&nbsp; Jim also spent over 20 years on the Coop Board of Directors, many of those years as the Director and during that time he and Marilyn enjoyed many trips with the board. He also served on the Board of Directors of the Twin Platte Natural Resource District for over 20 years, serving as Chairman during many of those years.

Jim was a long time member of the Lincoln County Fair Board and continued to support the 4-Hers up until his death.&nbsp; He also sold Dekalb Seed Corn for many years, which earned him and Marilyn trips to Hawaii and Mexico. In his later years, he enjoyed being part of the Gideons and handing out Bibles at the schools in the area.&nbsp; Jim enjoyed his Donut Shop friends so much and hardly ever missed a morning with them. For the last nine years, he was a devoted member of the Runza Ice Cream Club with his granddaughter Lizzie, they met every time there was an early-out from school!

Jim was an avid baseball fan, playing it in his younger years, and as he aged, he attended games and watched endless hours of college and Major League match-ups. Jim loved to collect tractors, especially John Deere, his collection was definitely museum-worthy. Bowling was another activity that he enjoyed. He had a blast bowling for the church league for many years and loved taking his grandchildren bowling and on many other adventures! Upon his retirement, he took up craft-welding. His creations have been given to many people in the area, as well as throughout the state. Jim had such a fantastic and contagious laugh, he will be greatly missed.

Jim is survived by his children, Marcia Rubenthaler of Brady, Robin Hines (Ron) of North Platte, Matt Rubenthaler of Lincoln, Gretchen David (Troy) of Brady, and his other “daughter”, Karen Krocker of Brady.

Jimmy (Jim) Lee Rubenthaler (1932-2020)

Larry L Lehmkuhler, age 71, of the Stop Table area in Callaway, NE passed away Monday, November 9, 2020 at his home.

Larry was born April 2, 1949 in Gothenburg, NE to Lloyd L. and Bernelda L (Nelson) Lehmkuhler. Larry attended the Mackley Country School thru the 8th&nbsp;grade and graduated from Arnold High School in Arnold, NE. On June 15, 1968 Larry married Gloria J Whipple at the Morning Star United Methodist Church, and spent all of their 52 years of marriage living in the Arnold/Callaway community.

During High School Larry worked at Central Implement, after graduation he attended the John Deere certification course in Omaha, NE, on completion, he continued to work for Central Implement for another year. Larry worked as a farmhand for the first 13 years of his marriage. He then drove a truck for Halstead Trucking.&nbsp; He loved it and if he could have packed his family up to go with him, he would have never stopped. He then worked as a Road Maintainer operator for Custer County for 30 years. He retired in 2016 (for a few months), but that was short lived, as he returned to help out temporarily. He finished out his working years driving truck for Progressive Fertilizer for fun, which he realized quickly it cut into his fishing time. Aside from Husband, Dad, Grandpa, Great Grandpa and Uncle, the most rewarding “job” was all the years of being a Leader for the 4-H Shooting Club and took great pride in teaching the Hunter Safety Course for many years, teaching youngsters, which included&nbsp; most all his grandkids, nieces and nephews&nbsp; to safely enjoy hunting the great outdoors. Larry enjoyed spending time with his wife. They kept busy traveling to all parts of the state and farther to attend kids and grandkids events. He loved the great outdoors fishing and hunting with his family and friends. If you knew Larry, you knew he didn't know a stranger!! So, a quick trip to town was never quick!!

William 'Bill' LeRoy Miller (1943-2020)

Gail Reed, age 85, of Cozad, Nebraska, died November 9, 2020 at Emerald Care Nursing Home in Cozad.&nbsp;&nbsp;

She was born the daughter of William and Adelaide Jensen Christiansen on December 24, 1934. She was born in the same house she lived most of her life in.&nbsp;&nbsp;In her early stages of her life, she was riding horseback helping in the field.&nbsp; She was always ready to drive cattle, ride and herd the cattle in the cornfield or on the drive to the pasture.&nbsp; When the Cozad Horse Club was formed, she and her Dad rode in it along with a lot of farmers and any one that wanted to. She was the last living member of the club. They performed in a lot of different arenas.

She attended school at District 13 riding a horse when it was nice outside.&nbsp; One horse always loved to rub its halter off just as she knew school was out.&nbsp; We followed her home carrying the bridle. Noreen Benjamin was her best country friend.&nbsp; She graduated from Cozad High School with the class of 1952.

On January 20, 1952 she married the love of her life, John&nbsp; "Jack" Walter Reed in Lexington, Nebraska. They lived one year in Lexington, moving to a farm in Gothenburg, Nebraska the second year.&nbsp; When it came time to put up hay, Jack told her Dad we will have to hire someone to sweep.&nbsp; Dad smiled and pointed at Gail, and said she had been&nbsp;doing it for several years. Jack was shocked he didn't know that she could do a lot of things in the field.&nbsp; In February of 1954, they moved to the home place where they lived and raised their family and horses. Jack was involved with 4-H, so they all worked on showing calves and sheep judging.&nbsp; They raised 6 children, Marcia, John, Debra, Terri, Kim and Doug.&nbsp; The children were all involved early on: they milked cows, selling cream and milk to different people in town.&nbsp; Getting up at four o'clock in the morning to milk before going to work or getting the children off to school or sitting with a sow, pigging in the winter at three o'clock in the morning, or checking cows when calving.

Gail worked at the Dixie Inn,&nbsp; from there to Valley Vending then to Monroes for 25 years. She and Jack loved their time together working and growing a big garden to sell vegetables and baked goods in at the Farmers Market in Lexington, Gothenburg and Cozad. Gail loved her chickens, selling eggs to a lot of folks, at first, they started out with fryers later just eggs.&nbsp; She loved her chickens but her health shut that off.&nbsp; She had a lot of names, "Egg Lady", "Jelly Lady", "Pie Lady" and "Towel Lady".&nbsp; Her favorite past time was crocheting, or making jelly keeping on hand seventeen kinds.&nbsp; She loved her African violets and all flowers in her sun room.&nbsp; &nbsp;She was a member of St.Johns Lutheran Church.

Survivors include children Marcia Pedersen of&nbsp; Plattsmouth, NE, John (Shelly) Reed of Cozad, NE, Debra ( Dennis) Meredith of Gothenburg, NE, Terri Hergenrader (Jim McAdams) of Lincoln, NE, Kim (Todd) Morse of Omaha, NE, Doug (Kim) Reed of&nbsp; Seward, NE; fifteen Grandchildren, 23 Great Grandchildren and one Great Great Grandchild ,her sister, Wilma Quelle of Beatrice, NE; along with many nieces, nephews, extended family and friends.&nbsp;

Janice Darnall  (1932-2020)

Sylvia “Gayle” Taylor was born September 2nd, 1943 in Atkinson, Nebraska, to parents Frank W. and Kathrine E. Richards. She passed away on November 3, 2020 surrounded by her husband and all of her children at Bryan Hospital in Lincoln, Nebraska at the age of 77 years, 2 months and 1 day.

Over her lifetime Gayle lived in may locations across Nebraska, but she called Atkinson, NE her home while growing up.&nbsp; Grand Island, NE, her home while going to Beauty School, and then Broken Bow, NE which was her long-time home for 58 years.&nbsp; Nearly 50 of those years were spent raising her children in the house that she built together with her husband on South H Street. In the summer of 1959, at just 15 years old she met the love of her life, Duane Taylor, when she was in Broken Bow, Nebraska with her family for the summer while her father’s company fulfilled a construction project in the area. Then less than four years later, on a beautiful sunny and warm November 4th,1962, when they were just 19 and 24, they married. She was just 1-day shy of celebrating 58 years of marriage to her dearest husband.

Gayle attended Atkinson High School through her early teens, graduating in 1960. She then attended Grand Island Beauty School where she graduated and then worked at salons in Atkinson and O’Neil, Nebraska before opening the Doll-Up Beauty Salon in March 1963, which she owned and operated until 1991.&nbsp; She had many long-time customers and loved helping them look their very best. In addition to being a business owner she was the Chief Operating Officer at home and the office manager for Taylor Construction until she retired in 2007.

A lover of flowers, Gayle had an extensive collection of nearly 100 roses along with many other types of flowers surrounding her home.&nbsp; In addition to taking care of her own flowers, Gayle tended to the roses at the Methodist Church. She was always willing to explain where to cut the flowers and what to use to keep them safe from bugs and disease. Her love of nature also included any kind of wildlife.&nbsp; Each day she would feed birds and squirrels in her backyard and watch the African Safari via webcam at night with her many friends from around the world. One of her favorite parts of going to the Rocky Mountains each year was seeing a variety of animals on the way.

She was dedicated to her husband, children and adored all her 13 grandchildren. &nbsp;For over forty years she enjoyed snowmobiling vacations with her husband Duane in the Rocky Mountains where they made many great friendships. &nbsp;Gayle and Duane relished many great experiences with the children and grandchildren on joint vacations to places like Yellowstone Park, Back Hills, Branson, Las Vegas, Gulf Shores and San Antonio. &nbsp;Watching her kids and grandkids at their games, matches and meets was always something she enjoyed. She was always there, no matter if it was local games, state championships or national NAIA championships halfway across the country.&nbsp; Gayle was always there to help out when there was work to do.&nbsp; She would grab a paintbrush to help prepare a nursery, plant flowers to brighten up her kid’s homes, stack wood when finishing a basement and then always whip up great eats to insure everyone was feed.&nbsp; A family get together was never complete without Grandma’s famous chocolate cake with homemade frosting and some of her homemade ice cream.

Fiercely loyal and protective, Gayle Taylor put her family and friendships before all else in life. She would go without so that others could have, she would give her last breath before seeing someone she loved suffer.&nbsp; Never would she let someone be at home sick or in the hospital alone, she would drop everything to be there, for the day, week, month or more.&nbsp; And no matter what time of night or early morning, she was available to talk and or listen to insure you stayed awake.&nbsp; She was a guardian angel to so many, way before she became a real angel.

Gayle was preceded in death by her parents Frank and Katherine Dvorak.

 She is survived by her husband Duane Taylor; sons, Stacy (wife Angela, sons-Austin &amp; Connor) Taylor, Monte (wife Renee, sons Jackson (Abby), Quintin &amp; daughter Kaelyn) Taylor; daughters, Michelle (husband Randy, sons-Nolan, Hayden, William &amp; daughter Kathryn) Grint, Janelle (husband Jon, sons-Garrett, Wyatt, Grant &amp; daughter Gretchen) Seagren; and sister, Kay Meier, and brother, Richard (Stephanie) Dvorak.

The family will have a private service Saturday morning, November 14th, 2020, followed by a Celebration of Life open house at Duane and Gayle’s home, located at 241 South H. Broken Bow, NE from 11:30 am till 5:30pm. Memorials may be sent to the family for Roses at the United Methodist Church in Broken Bow.

Phyllis Ann Green  (1940-2020)

William (Bill) Eugene Weber, age 80 of Culbertson, Nebraska was born April 29, 1940 in Palisade, Nebraska to William Theodore Weber and Beaulah Lorraine (Edgett) Weber.&nbsp; Bill passed away on November 6, 2020.

Bill spent his childhood at the family home near the Hitchcock / Hayes County line in Nebraska where he attended school in in a one room school house. Family was engaged in farming and ranching and Bill learned the skills of what would be a large part of his adult life. After attending Culbertson High School, Bill joined the United States Air Force achieving the rank of Airman 1st Class – E3.&nbsp; He served honorably until December of 1959.&nbsp; While serving at Beale Airforce Base in Northern California he met the love of his life Susan Jean (Dethlefsen) and they were married in June of 1960 in Marysville CA. Bill worked as a farmhand around Wheatland CA.&nbsp;

In June of 1961 the couple was blessed with a daughter Ronda Lea followed by a son William Theodore in December of 1962.&nbsp; Around this time the family moved to Roseville, CA and Bill got a job working on the new dam across the North Yuba River at Bullard’s Bar. Short while later the family moved to a 5 acre farmstead in Rio Linda, CA. The house provided room for the family to stretch out and provided a wealth of adventures for his young children and their cousins.&nbsp; Bill continued his construction career working on projects around northern California in places like Antioch.

Following the death of his brother, Richard, in 1970 the family returned to Culbertson, Nebraska so Bill could assist his father in the operation of the family farm. Bill also did custom hay work for many of the farmers around Culbertson with his Heston Stackhand as well as other work as it came.&nbsp;

After selling the family farm Bill operated a farm near Blackfoot, Idaho growing wheat, barley and potatoes.&nbsp; This meant he had to learn a whole new crop and the ins and outs of the potato business.&nbsp; It also meant many trips back and forth between Nebraska and Idaho for him and the family during the summers.&nbsp; Bill made many friends in Idaho during this time that lasted many years after he returned to Nebraska.

During this period the family was joined by three nephews: James, Aaron and Scott Walker. The family lived in a small house on the west edge of Culbertson.&nbsp; Though crowded, it was full of love and provided the younger boys a base of adventure for many hunting expeditions. After a few years Bill and Susan would move the family across town to Wildman Street to a larger house. During this time he also started a gravel business, B&amp;B Gravel, out of Palisade, Nebraska.&nbsp;&nbsp;After selling the farm, Bill &amp; Susan purchased the old Thompson’s IGA building in Culbertson.&nbsp; They turned this into the Bear Cave Bar &amp; Grill, a much needed business in the small village.&nbsp; The Bear Cave provided a meeting and gathering place for people across the eastern part of Hitchcock county.&nbsp;Bill followed this enterprise with creating a trucking company, Bill Weber Trucking, that specialized in small loads of hotshot freight.

Bill was known by many to be a good friend and a helping hand when needed. He spent many days in the outdoors hunting and fishing or teaching his children, nephews and grandchildren how to shoot, hunt and fish.&nbsp; He enjoyed this more than anything as it was his way of teaching lessons in hard work and the reward of a job well done.&nbsp;

Proceeded in death by his son William T. (Billy), daughter-in-law Jodie (Tessendorf), father William, mother Beaulah, infant brother Douglas, brother Richard Lee, sister Barbara Jane Ozbun and sister Imogene Lorraine (Jehorek) Beisner

Bill is survived by his wife of 60 years, Susan; his daughter Ronda (Erdman) and friend Joe Bunnell of Palisade, Nebraska; three grandchildren, Brock Erdman and wife Amy of Copperopolis California, Nicholas Erdman and wife Tina of Culbertson, Nebraska and Abraham Weber and wife Taylor of Culbertson, Nebraska; and five great grandchildren. He is also survived by his sisters Mildred Brady of Albuquerque, NM,&nbsp; Lillian Tucker of Wichita Falls, TX and Darleen Henderson of&nbsp; Omaha, NE; as well as many nephews, nieces and close friends

A memorial service will be held on Saturday, November 14, 2020 at 2:00 p.m. at Herrmann-Jones Funeral Chapel, 607 Norris Avenue in McCook, Nebraska.&nbsp; Burial will follow at the Culbertson Cemetery in Culbertson, Nebraska.

Murray&nbsp;Schad, age 82, of North Platte, Nebraska passed away surrounded by his family on Friday, November 6, 2020, at Kearney Regional Medical Center in Kearney, Nebraska, from Covid-19.

Murray was born September 6, 1938, to Ambrose 'AF' and Ida Schad in Gothenburg, Nebraska. During World War II, the family moved to Portland, Oregon, while AF worked in the ship yards. When they returned to Gothenburg, AF and Marvel opened a heating and plumbing business and Murray attended school until 9th grade when the family moved to North Platte.

Murray attended North Platte High School and was involved in track. He graduated in 1956 then attended Doane College for a year before transferring to the University of Nebraska at Lincoln where he became a member of Phi Gamma Delta Fraternity.

While working at Lennox Furnace Industry in Marshalltown, Iowa, Murray met Maris Collins.

Murray was an Admiral in the Great Navy of the State of Nebraska.

He was an avid outdoors man who loved to hunt, fish, and golf with friends and family. He loved fishing with ultralight fishing tackle and making his own lures. Murray's passion for hunting pheasant and quail over his German shorthair pointers was another joy of his life. He always found time to hunt turkey, deer and geese.

Dixie D. Thompson  (1943-2020)

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;DeLores Ann "Dee" Taylor was born on May 20, 1930 to Edward and Dora (Nordhausen) Denker on their farm south of Wauneta, Nebraska.&nbsp; Dee was baptized, schooled, confirmed and married at St. Paul's Lutheran Church out on the South Divide. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Dee's childhood revolved around church and family.&nbsp; The Nordhausen and Denker clans were a prodigious group of Greman immigrants that resulted in a multitude of cousins with which to spend time with.&nbsp; Most Sundays after church lead to a family gathering at one of the relative's farm.&nbsp; In later years, attendance at the tri-annual Nordhausen Happening was not to be missed.&nbsp; Most people don't know that the family spent part of a year (in the mid-1930's) in New York City, where Dee attended a Brooklyn school. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;On October 16, 1949, Dee married a fellow South Divider named Jim Taylor.&nbsp; Dee and Jim spent the first dozen years of their marriage on the original Hartzer (Taylor) homestead in the beautiful frame house that still stands today (claimed now by the Bartel's Family). &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;While living on the homestead, they engaged in farming and childbearing that resulted in three girls and a son:&nbsp; Cindi Sue, Lorna Lou, Doreen Dru, and Joshua D.&nbsp; No more children were required after the "ten pound boy" came along. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;After several successive years of unfortunate weather events, Jim decided to look for greener pastures to give a try.&nbsp; That led to a move onto a farm on the Stink'n Water Creek north of Hamlet, Nebraska.&nbsp; A true Huck Fin experience for the kids, but Dee was a bit taken back by the available residence. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Dee's work ethic was legendary, and she put it to good use cleaning and organizing the shack on the Stink'n Water Creek and turned it into a livable space for the family, but the effort was continuous.&nbsp; Though a small house, Dee could make it accommodate a gathering of many relatives.&nbsp; After 10 years, Jim and Dee moved closer to Hamlet and built a newer 'modern' home.&nbsp; That work ethic kept the new house meticulous, the large farmyard fabulously manicured and Jim well dressed. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Whereas Jim had his John Deere, Dee had her Singer sewing machine.&nbsp; she spent hours sewing, working her magic with thread and needle making clothes for her stylish daughters and other household items.&nbsp; Jackie O would have been jealous. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Having the grandkids visit was always eventful and brought them a lot of joy.&nbsp; During their retirement, Dee and Jim enjoyed golfing (Dee was the better player) and traveling.&nbsp; Dee lived in her modern house until 2012, at which time she moved to Imperial Heights Assisted Living in Imperial, Nebraska.&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Faith and family were everything to&nbsp; Dee.&nbsp; Being of German Lutheran stock set the foundation for her faith in Jesus Christ as her Savior and Lord, which she handed down to her children.&nbsp; Missing church was not an option, no matter the conditions:&nbsp; rain, snow, wind hail, or muddy rutted roads were no match for this stubborn German girl.&nbsp; She was dedicated to Jesus to the core and to her last breath. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;On the afternoon of November 5, 2020, at the age of 90, Jesus came calling.&nbsp; She now rejoices with Him in Heaven with the hosts of saints, and is surely reunited with all those cousins, aunts, uncles and friends who also leaned on Jesus. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Dee was preceded in death by her parents; her husband, Jim; her brothers and their spouses: Donnie and Joanne Denker, Kenny and Cleophia Denker; her little sister and her husband, Diann and Dean Widger; and her daughter-in-law, Deborah Taylor. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;She is survived by her children Cindi (George) Hallett of Imperial, Nebraska, Lorna Taylor of Wauneta, Nebraska, Doreen (Gary) Mohr of Enders, Nebraska, and Josh Taylor of Hamlet, Nebraska; and numerous nephews, nieces, grandchildren and cousins. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;This is the day the Lord has made.&nbsp; Let us rejoice and be glad in it. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Dee's funeral service will be on Thursday, November 12, 2020 at 2:00 p.m. MST at Redeemer Lutheran Church, 233 South Arapahoe St, Wauneta, Nebraska officiated by Pastors David Kahle and Keith Willman.&nbsp; Dee's casket will be open before the services.&nbsp; Interment will follow at Wauneta's Riverside Cemetery. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;The family has suggested no flowers, but memorials to the Mercy Meals of Southwest Nebraska and KNGN Lutheran Radio of McCook. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Online condolences may be left at LiewerFuneralHome.com.

Bill Ray Bigbee was born April 18, 1936 at the family farm near Wilmore, KS. He was the fourth of five children born to Ray E. and Esther (Ferrin) Bigbee. He passed away on November 4, 2020, at Kearney Regional Medical Center in Kearney, NE.

Bill’s early childhood years were spent on the family farm in Wilmore where he began learning to farm. His schooling for the first two years was at Ridge Summit, a country school near their home, which then consolidated with Wilmore Grade School. In November 1942, Bill’s mother passed away. His father married Zenith Roderick (who loved Bill and his siblings as her own) in May 1948 and the family moved to a farm north of Merna, NE. During that move, Bill (age 12) helped drive a straight truck and put in the first corn crop by himself while his dad went back to Kansas to harvest wheat. Their first winter was a rude welcome to Nebraska as they endured the Blizzard of ’48. Bill finished grade school at a country school a few miles southeast of their farm. All through high school and three years following, he worked on Saturdays at Davolt's Grocery in Merna. Bill graduated in 1954 from Merna High School. After completing his education, he continued farming with his father.

On August 11, 1957, Bill was united in marriage to Phyllis Myers at the Lillian Church of Christ. They made their home north of Merna, NE for a short time, before moving west of Broken Bow where they were engaged in farming and ranching. It was here that they were blessed with five children: Carolyn, Jeanette, Kathy, Mike, and Linda. Their first land purchase was the Bates farm in the Lillian community. When Bill’s dad retired in 1975, Bill and Phyllis were able to purchase his dad’s original farm north of Merna. In 1994, Bill and Phyllis built a home on the northwest edge of Broken Bow, continuing with farming and ranching until his death.&nbsp;&nbsp;

A longtime member of Lillian Church of Christ, Bill was baptized in November of 1966. He was a part of the church board for several years, served on the school board of Prairie Hill District #74 most of the years his children were in grade school, and was a director on the Broken Bow Cooperative Marketing Association Board for many years.

In addition to being a successful farmer/rancher, Bill was mechanically gifted. He was able to repair, build, or modify nearly anything to solve a problem. A special project he was pleased to accomplish, with the assistance of a grandson, was restoring his 706 International tractor. He was able to use it in some tractor pulls and the Merna parade, pulling a “Bee-hive” trailer filled with his entire family. He also enjoyed pasture rides, especially when using his 4-wheeler with the wagon he built for giving rides to his grandchildren.

Highlights of the last few months include a surprise revealing of the restoration of his first tractor (a 1955 300 Farmall completed by a grandson), a big gathering at the farm with most of his family attending, and being able to participate in several days of harvest.

Those left to cherish his memory include his wife, Phyllis, of 63 years; children, Carolyn (Jeff) Warren of Norfolk, NE,&nbsp; Jeanette (Rusty) Parker of Norfolk, NE, Kathy (Dan) Smith of Pleasant Hill, IA, Mike (Tania) Bigbee of Arnold, NE, and Linda Mosel of Merna, NE; eighteen grandchildren; ten great-grandchildren; brother, Jerry Bigbee; and sister-in-law, Joan Myers.

Bill was preceded in death by his parents and step-mother; infant brother, Richard Bigbee; sisters, Norma (Willard) Johnson and Joan (Bill) Lyddon; sisters-in-law and brothers-in-law, Darlene Bigbee, Ruth Lea (Ray) Flannery, and Rex Myers.

Bill always enjoyed a good laugh. Even as he endured all the medical procedures in his last few years, he was ready with a quip or joke. We recall with fondness his teasing, especially of the children in his family, including nieces and nephews, and his practical jokes. We will miss him, but are thankful for his legacy of grit, hard work, and humor.

Trevis had two dogs, Blue and Duke, that he cared for deeply.&nbsp; He took care of them as if they were his children.&nbsp; Fishing was his favorite pastime.&nbsp; At family gatherings, he loved to tease and play with his nieces and nephews - most of all, schooling them in the latest video games!&nbsp; He also loved to cook for people when he could, finding the hottest sauce in the house to spice it up.&nbsp; Oh, the look on his face when you had a spare bottle of Tabasco with a few beers to go.&nbsp; Trevis was a big kid at heart who had quite the sense of humor, and fairly strong opinions about the world and what goes on around it - he would be sure you were listening.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Trevis was a cancer survivor, but was taken away from us way too soon due to a heart attack.&nbsp; Although we mourn the loss here on Earth, we know Trevis stood on the Solid Rock of Faith which anchored his soul through every battle.&nbsp; He had his fair share of challenges, but knew God never left his side.

Trevis was preceded in death by his parents, Ronald &amp; Judy Kraus, and two infant brothers.

Trevis is survived by his older brother, Toy Kraus (Angel) of Broken Arrow, Oklahoma; sister, Tawnya Jackson (Jeff) of Cozad, Nebraska; and sister Traci Wall (Jeff) of Johnson Lake, Nebraska; nieces Brittany Minor (James) of Whidbey Island, Washington, Brooke Kraus of Owasso, Oklahoma, Brielle Kraus of Glenpool, Oklahoma, Ronelle Jackson of Columbus, Nebraska, Karissa Jackson of Cozad, Nebraska, and Ahnika and Addison Svajgr of Johnson Lake, Nebraska; nephew Alex Svajgr of Johnson Lake, Nebraska; great nephew Alexander and great niece Caleigh Minor of Whidbey Island, Washington; and great nephew Brixton Troy Hamm of Glenpool, Oklahoma.

Memorials are suggested to the family in his name for later designation.&nbsp; Cremation was chosen.&nbsp; There will be no book signing.&nbsp;&nbsp;

A memorial service will be held on Friday, November 6, 2020 at 5:00 p.m. at the Berryman Funeral Home Chapel, 620 East 22nd Street, Cozad, Nebraska.
