Gary Busselman, entered into the presence of the Lord on November 22, 2025 in his home in Nixa, Missouri. Born on October 30, 1955, in Oakland, Nebraska to Lorenz and Anna Mae Busselman. Gary lived a life rooted in faith, family, and quiet reflection.

Throughout his life, Gary remained deeply committed to those he loved. He is remembered with affection by wife Linda Busselman and his 6 children Joshua Busselman; Zeb Boomgaarden; Jeremy Busselman; Justin Busselman; Jacob Boomgaarden; and Gary Wayne Busselman. His legacy continues through the six men he raised—each devoted to their own families—and through his eleven grandchildren.

Gary placed family at the center of his world. He took great pride in being present for them—supporting them through life’s challenges and celebrating their joys. His devotion shaped a legacy of love that will continue to resonate across generations.

A man of quiet strength and deep spirituality, Gary found peace in simple moments. He cherished his adventures on his days off, often taking scenic drives to discover new routes while spending time in prayer. These morning nature drives became treasured rituals that he joyfully shared with his grandchildren through photos and stories.

Gary’s faith was a guiding force throughout his life. He shared it openly—not only with family but also with those he encountered through his work. Gary was passionate about his role in the agriculture industry and willing to share his knowledge and the love of Christ at any opportunity. Whether through heartfelt conversations or the small inspirational quotes he left at his desk for others to find, Gary offered encouragement and light to those around him.

Gary was preceded in death by his parents Lorenz and Anna Mae Busselman as well as siblings Duane Busselman, Gene Busselman.

May Gary’s memory bring comfort to those who knew him and serve as a lasting reminder of a life lived with purpose and heart.
