Horner Lieske McBride & Kuhl Funeral & Cremation Service is assisting the family with arrangements. Brandon Ben Berumen was born in Kearney, Nebraska, to parents Nick and Rosa Berumen. He was raised with siblings Nicole, Eric, and cousins Consuelo and Brooke in Kearney. It was here he learned his love of adventure, automotive bodywork, and his family. In his younger years, he loved spending time with friends, wrestling, playing soccer, boxing, and making everyone laugh. He was the life of the party, always. At the age of 22, he met Eva, the mother of his first four children, Aubrey, Alex, Taylor, and Jaxson. Later, he met Sarah, and together they were blessed with two more sons, Brody and Noah. Throughout his life, he enjoyed working on cars with his father, brother, and sons. He earned numerous certificates and honors for his exceptional automotive painting and custom detail work. In turn, he loved attending car shows and cruise nights with his family to admire his work and the work of others. He was his children’s biggest fan and spent a lot of his time cheering them on at their numerous extracurricular activities. Not only did he cheer from the sidelines, but he also coached the older kids’ soccer teams. He never turned down the opportunity to give soccer pointers, boxing advice, or talk about the latest superhero movie or comic. He passed these joys down to his children, along with his avid enthusiasm for the Huskers and celebrating events like Fourth of July and Halloween. He spared no expense or effort to make these holidays truly memorable each year. He was a devout Christian and read his bible everyday. Brandon will be remembered most for the love, laughter, and light he brought into the lives of everyone who knew him. His energy, passion, and joy will continue to live on through his children, family, and friends. Though his time here was far too short, the memories he created and the impact he made will be cherished forever. Those left to treasure his memory are his daughters, Aubrey Berumen (Justin) of Gibbon, Nebraska, and Taylor Berumen (Jayden) of Kearney, Nebraska; his sons, Alex Berumen (Averea) of Kearney, Nebraska, Jaxson Berumen of Lincoln, Nebraska, and Brody and Noah Casper-Berumen, both of Minden, Nebraska; His mother, Rosa Berumen of Kearney, Nebraska; his sister, Nicole Berumen Gambrell (Winfield) of Lyman, South Carolina, his brother, Eric Berumen of Kearney, Nebraska and his cousins Consuelo Chavez (Julio) of Omaha, Nebraska, Manuel Ventura (Peyton) of Cozad, Nebraska, and Brooke Anthony Berumen of Lincoln, Nebraska; Also Eva Linn of Kearney, Nebraska (mother of Aubrey, Alex, Taylor, and Jaxson) and Sarah Casper of Minden, Nebraska (mother of Brody and Noah); Grandchildren, Oliver, Mia, and LynnLee.
