Loren Leon Remus, Glen Elder, Kansas, died June 17, 2023. Loren was doing what he enjoyed, checking his cow and calves at the home place.
Loren was born Dec. 3, 1962, at the Community Hospital in Beloit, Kansas, to Shirley (Colson) and Doyle Remus. He was the second of three children. He attended Glen Elder Elementary K through 5; finished grades 6 through 12 and graduated in the Beloit Class of 1981. He attended Hutchinson Community College receiving an associate's degree in agriculture. Following an introduction from a friend, Loren worked at Stroberg Manufacturing in Hutchinson, meeting many wonderful people who remain friends.
Loren's life revolved around the farm from a young age. Both grandpa's provided plenty of overalls and toy implements in preparation of his vocation. Until he was old enough to help his dad with cattle and crops, he could be found setting up farms, making row crop rounds and herding cattle with tiny toys. He later was able to realize his dreams: farming, building a cow-calf herd and establishing a feedlot.
Loren was preceded in death by his father, Doyle L. Remus; paternal grandparents, William J. and Orpha A. Remus; maternal grandparents, Lester N. and Leona P. Colson; aunt, Bernadette R. Menhusen; and cousin, Monty J. Menhusen.
He is survived by his mother, Shirley A. Remus, Glen Elder; sister, Aneita Remus, Shawnee; brother, Paul (Janet) Remus, Beloit; nephews, Jacob Remus, Beloit and Adam Remus, Manhattan; many special cousins, extended family, friends, and his dog, Blue.
