Braun, 63 of Cedar Rapids, NE, passed away peacefully surrounded by his family on Sunday, March 21, 2021 at his mother’s home in Columbus, NE. Allen Bernard Braun, son of George and Marcella “Sally” (Glaser) Braun was born October 31, 1957 at Fullerton, NE. He attended elementary school at St. Anthony’s Catholic School and graduated from Cedar Rapids Public School in 1976. During school, Al discovered a hobby of woodworking, and the wooden roll-top desk he made was sent to Washington DC where he was awarded the “Golden Hammer”. His love for woodworking lasted throughout his life as he created many beautiful furniture pieces. Following graduation, Al continued farming on the family farm. Al loved every aspect of farming and he especially enjoyed sharing his love of farming with his nieces and nephews as they were growing up. Al was an active member of St. Anthony’s Catholic Church serving as lector and usher for many years. He was a volunteer on the Cedar Rapids Fire Department and served as the Secretary/Treasurer of the Rural Fire Board. Al had a phenomenal memory and he never met a stranger. He literally made friends everywhere. Al enjoyed Sunday road-trips to places such as the Henry Doorly Zoo, the Stuhr Museum, and the Durham Museum. He would return home to tell a story about who he had met (and instantly became friends with) and what he had seen that day. He would never forget a name or a date, something that stayed with him until his passing. Al’s family will remember him as son and brother who was always willing to drop everything to help out. He was a “straight shooter” who would tell it like it was. And he was the best guy any of us have known. Allen is survived by his mother, Marcella “Sally” Braun of Columbus, NE; siblings Ed (Linda) Braun of Cedar Rapids, NE; Peggy (Terry) Wojcik of Columbus, NE; Dan Braun of Belgrade, NE; Gary (Barb) Braun of Minden, NE; Annette (Andy) Borer of Columbus, NE; Dave (Jerrae) Braun of Wayne, NE; and Sharon (Tim) Comstock of Omaha, NE. He is survived by his nieces and nephews: Eric (Jennifer) Braun & Family; Justin (Melissa) Braun & Family, Brian (Meg) Braun, Brandon (Connie) Braun & Family, Lissa Shelsta & Family, Georgia Braun, Christopher (Melissa) Braun & Family, Jessica (Chris) Schidler & Family, Sophia (Kodee) Dunfee, Mary Braun, Catherine Braun, Calvin Borer, Valerie (Dyllan) Coop, Lance Borer, Zac (Tessa) Braun & Family, Lauryn (Dalton) Dunklau, Ben (Samantha) Braun & Family, Noah Braun, Isaac Braun, and Toby Braun. Allen is preceded in death by his father, George; his infant brother, Dean; and his grandparents: Bernard and Anna (Kraus) Braun and Martin and Gertrude (Krick) Glaser. Interment will follow at St. Anthony’s Catholic Cemetery, Cedar Rapids, NE.
