Elizabeth Jean Bradner, 84, of Mayville, North Dakota, formerly of
Lake Havasu City, went to be with her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ
Jan. 16, 2018.

Liz was born Oct. 27, 1933 in Tiffin, Ohio to Carl and Hilda
(Hammersmith) Kliesch. She grew up in Fostoria, Ohio where she
graduated as valedictorian of St. Wendelin Catholic School.

Liz met the love of her life in Fostoria. She and David E. Bradner
married June 19, 1954. Liz was an executive secretary at Owens
Illinois in Toledo, Ohio, working to put Dave through medical school.

She and Dave were the proud owners of Ace Drug Store in Toledo. By far
her most important, difficult and rewarding job was being a wife and
mother raising her four boys. Upon retirement, the couple relocated to
Havasu. She loved the heat of the desert, especially the sunsets.

Later in life, after the passing of Dave, Liz moved to Mayville, North
Dakota to live out her wonderful life with all her friends at the
Luther Memorial Home. Liz was preceded in death by her husband of 50
years, David; her parents and a grandson, Devin Bradner.

She is survived by her sons Brian (Colette) of Havasu, Eric (Carol) of
Sylvania, Ohio and Michael (Kelly) of Portland, North Dakota;
grandchildren Briana, Jeffrey, Amber, Chad, Joey, Wes, Kit, Bennie,
Anna, Jack and Kathryn; her great-grandchildren Austin, Ainsley and
Cason.

“Don’t let the burden of having lost her overcome the joy of having
her.” -- Elizabeth Bradner

Burial is at Lake Havasu Memorial Gardens on April 5 at 11a.m.
