Bradley Carl Muir passed away Monday, June 27, 2016, at Logan Manor in Logan, Kansas, at the age of 59.
He was born on October 24, 1956, in Plainville, Kansas, to Richard and Nancy (Levin) Muir. On April 18, 1980 he was united in marriage to Regina Hrabe at St. Thomas Catholic Church in Stockton, Kansas. They were blessed with four children.
A hardworking farmer and rancher, who was also a dedicated family man, Brad loved living life outside. Whether hunting, fishing, golfing, water skiing, or just hanging out at the lake, he found joy for his spirit and rest for his soul in the middle of God’s creation. He was a member of the Rooks County Golf Club, as well as serving for 20 years on the Rooks County Soil Conservation Board. One of his favorite things to do was grilling for the family every Sunday. He was always happiest when surrounded by family, friends, and neighbors, but most especially when he could spend time with his grandkids.
Brad is survived by his wife Gina; son Tyler Muir and wife Krista of Stockton; daughters Kayla Hilbrink and husband Spencer of Stockton, Lindsey Mongeau and husband Michael of Stockton, and Nichole Toney and husband Michael of Lake Jackson, Texas; grandchildren Ethan, Eden, Hayden, Beckem, Ryan, Markeis, and Kaisyn; mother Nancy Muir of Stockton; brothers Mike Muir and wife Sherry of Hays, John Muir and wife Tina of Lake Johnson, Nebraska, and Pat Muir and wife Tialisa of Stockton; sister Dana Fisher and husband Steve of Bainbridge, Washington.
He was preceded in death by his father Richard “Dick” Muir.
