Craig Dangler

Craig Dangler, loving husband, father, grandfather, son, brother, father-in-law, son-in-law and fireworks aficionado passed away the morning of February 13, 2020 following a two year battle with multiple illnesses. He passed peacefully in his sleep, surrounded by loved ones, who will miss him terribly. A Celebration of Life Service will be at 1:00 p.m. Thursday, February 20, 2020 at Mohr & Becker-Hunt Funeral Home in South Sioux City, Nebraska with Pastor Donna Goldtree of the Westridge United Methodist Church of Norfolk, Nebraska officiating.  Visitation, with the family present, will be one hour prior to the Celebration of Life.  Online condolences may be offered at www.meyerbroschapels.com  Memorials can be sent to the family who plan to work with Snyder’s Bend Campground to install a memorial park bench.

He was an everyman, capable of doing whatever he put his mind to – equal parts home remodeler, mechanic, outdoorsman, grill master and political commentator, who at one time found himself becoming a painter in the style of Bob Ross. His sons benefitted tremendously from his willingness and ability to change out car stereos, replace dented fenders, free keys locked inside vehicles and all other duties needed to keep them alive and out of too much trouble. He loved the Fourth of July and hosted annual parties attended by many who came as much for the smoked pork loin and brisket as they did the fireworks.

He dearly loved Jan, his wife and best friend of 42 years. Many of his favorite times were spent with just the two of them and their camper.

Craig was also an avid Nebraska Cornhusker fan so please wear your team’s colors if you’re able to join us to celebrate his life.

Craig is survived by his wife Jan, sons Brett (Allison), Brandon (Alissa), Ben, grandchildren Landon, Andy, Grace, Anna, Charlotte, Paige and Adair, his mom Patty, sisters Kathi and Kerri and other family and friends.

He now joins his Dad (Leland), sister (Kristi), father-in-law (Shorty) and brother-in-law (Dave) in heaven where we’re sure they’re having a great time!
