Bradley Michael was born September 16, 1971 in Wayne, NE to Billy Sr. and Gertrude (Tevebaugh) Landanger. He was raised in Carroll, NE and attended Carroll Elementary School through the 4th Grade. He then attended Wayne Middle School from 5th to 8th Grade and graduated from Wayne High School in 1989. Brad attended Norfolk Technical Community College briefly until he realized he knew more than his instructors and decided to pursue his love of construction on his own. He moved to Kearney in 1994 and worked at Tollefen Elliot Lumber. While working there he met his wife Mary and made many lifelong friendships. One of those friends, Corey Halliwell, became a huge part of Brad’s life providing Brad an opportunity to expand his passion of construction and building. They continued working closely together until Brad’s cancer diagnosis in 2016, which eventually prevented Brad from being able to continue working. Brad enjoyed all youth activities and attended numerous events related to any kids in his family. He taught everyone who would listen how to fish. He was young at heart and would do anything for anyone. He never knew a stranger. Left to cherish his memory are his wife, Mary of Kearney; step-daughter, Abby Cronin of Pleasanton; God children, Kayla (Taylor) Killion of Holdrege, and Cody Moran of McKinney, TX; grandchildren, Josalynne, Austen, Jaysen, Karson, Emersyn and Thaelyn; parents, Billy Sr. and Gertrude of Carroll, NE; brother, Billy Jr. (Jennifer) Landanger of Kearney. He also leaves nieces, nephews, Alora, Brandon, Dylan, Nicolas, Samuel, Madalyn; and great nieces and nephews, Zailey, Kierra, Talynn, Draven, all whom he loved as his own. He is preceded in death by his step-son, Shad Fong; grandparents, Faye and Roseline Landanger and Joseph and Naomi Tevebaugh.
