Bottom line we firmly believed that it wasn't where we went or what we did in life, it was who we did it with. I am survived by Matthew Christan Brunscheen (husband); Jeffrey (Barb) Rogers (brother), Linn Creek, Missouri; Douglas (Lisa) Rogers (brother), Prairie Du Chein, Wisconsin; Richard Rogers (estranged -biological father), Solon, Iowa; Linda Brunscheen (mother-in-law), Wesley Chapel, Florida; William (Cheryl) Brunscheen (father-in-law), Solon, Iowa; William 'BJ' Leonard (uncle), Solon, Iowa; Tony (Judy) Serbousek (uncle),Iowa City, Iowa; Troy and Kelly Winegar (brother and sister-in-law), Solon, Iowa; Kirk Brunscheen (brother-in-law) and Michelle Maker, Cedar Rapids, Iowa; Katie Rogers (niece), Prairie Du Chein, Wisconsin; Scott Brunscheen and Nik Pugmire (special cousins), Chicago, Illinois; Shane Brunscheen and Paul Brummond (special cousins), Des Moines, Iowa; Gabriella 'Brie' (Nick) Henry (niece), Solon, Iowa; Tyler Winegar (nephew), Cedar Rapids, Iowa; Tate Winegar (nephew), Cedar Rapids, Iowa; Kristin (Steven) Abernathy (niece), Seneca, Missouri; Logan (Kristine) Rogers (nephew), Linn Creek, Missouri; Kirk Michael Brunscheen (nephew), Texas; Cedric Brunscheen (nephew), Cedar Rapids, Iowa; Logan Brunscheen (nephew), Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and many cousins and close friends. Proceeding me in death was my mother Eileen Kathryn (Leonard) Rogers and her parents William P. and Lavona A. Leonard and aunts, Rita Serbousek and Mary Jensen. Per my wishes there will be no formal services. I'd rather everyone celebrate the good time we had and shared, instead of mourning my passing. I have also decided to donate my body to the University of Iowa in hopes that it will advance the understanding of cancer and the ravages the dreaded disease has on the human body. Instead a Celebration of Life will be held Saturday, September 22, 2018, starting at 3:00 PM to whenever, at Matthew's and my home in West Branch. Come celebrate the wonderful life I had -not my passing. My arrangements are being handled by longtime friends Jacob Wittrock and Scott Greenman of Stewart Baxter Funeral & Memorial Services. Any memorials can be forwarded to Matthew Brunscheen or to the First Friday Breakfast Club, Jonathan Wilson, President, c/o Davis Brown Law Firm, 215 10th St, Suite 1300, Des Moines, Iowa 50309.
