Michael Lehrkamp Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Jan. 27, 2025.
Michael Lehrkamp, age 76, beloved brother and friend, passed away Wednesday January 22nd. He is survived by his brother-in-law Ed Rhoades of Blair, NE; his sister Megan (Ed) Lehrkamp of Castro Valley, CA; and extended family and friends. He is preceded in death by his father Larry, mother Wanda, sister Gailanne, and sister Susan.

Michael was born in Carroll, IA, and worked at WESCO Industries in Denison, IA. After settling in Blair, NE he worked at the Blair Recycling Center and was active in Kiwanis. He loved reading, watching sports, and listening to music, especially Reba McEntire. What his body would not let him do, his mind did for him. He loved to laugh, and he loved with his whole heart. He spent his last days surrounded by the love of family and friends, near and far.

Services will be held January 31, 2025 at 11:00AM at Campbell Aman Funeral Home in Blair, NE. Internment will be held February 1, 2025, at 11:00AM at Mount Olivet in Carroll, IA. In lieu of flowers, please donate to the Blair Volunteer Rescue Squad.
