Bradley F. Klima

Bradley Frank “BK” Klima, 67, died at his family home in Belleville, Kansas on Friday, August 1st, 2025. He was born on October 22, 1957 in Belleville to Charles and Roberta “Bobbie” Klima. Brad grew up in Scandia, Kansas and graduated from Scandia High School in 1975.

On September 4, 1976, Bradley married Alice Faye LeSage in Beloit, Kansas. The couple built their life together in Belleville and raised three sons: Justin, Ryan and Kevin. Brad was a devoted husband and father whose love was built on years of shared laughter, tears, and loads of memories. His love for his family was evident in every decision he made and every sacrifice he offered. To those who knew him, his greatest pride was always his family. He shared his love of the outdoors with his family - whether it was camping, fishing, working on cars, or going to the lake, countless hours were spent enjoying nature.

Although Brad was known to keep to himself, he was the first to reach out to those he cared about in times of need. Loved ones will always remember Brad’s kindness, sense of humor, and readiness to help his neighbors. Brad cared for humans and animals alike. Whenever his furry neighbors came to visit, they would rush to Brad’s spot on the couch and lead him to the storage room where they knew he would give them a treat.

Brad was a skilled carpenter and excelled at working with his hands. After graduating from North Central Kansas Technical College in Beloit in 1976, he worked for Hallgren Construction, Wes’s Auto, Loves Auto, and Lindberg Construction before successfully running his own business - BK & A Remodeling - until his retirement in late 2023.

In his free time, Bradley loved hunting, fishing, woodworking, and spending time with his kids and grandkids. He will be deeply missed by his family and friends.

Bradley is preceded in death by his father, Charles Klima; his son, Justin Klima; his in-laws, Maurice & Virginia LeSage; and his brother-in-law, Jerry LeSage.

He is survived by his wife of 49 years, Alice Klima; his mother, Roberta “Bobbie” Klima; sons Ryan (Sharon) Klima and Kevin (Carson) Klima; sister-in-law Kay Newton; brother-in-law Joe (Angie) LeSage; and his grandchildren, Ryah Klima, Kirstyn Dvorak, Kayla Dvorak, Hayden Dvorak, Kreighton Klima, Jersey Klima, Maverik Klima, Iris Regnier, and Wilder Regnier.
