Obituary - Aimee Haner
Miss Aimee Diane Haner, 32, passed away November 14, 2011 at Research Medical Center in Kansas City.
Miss Aimee was born October 5, 1979 in Butler, Mo., daughter of Arlene Kay (Brunkow) and James Duane Haner. She attended the Briarwood State School and more recently attended the Day Program at Casco Area Workshop in Harrisonville. Aimee particularly loved stuffed animals, and her family describes her specific love of Scooby Doo. She also enjoyed other cartoons such as Charlie Brown, (she specifically liked Snoopy) and Disney movies. Aimee was a music and animal lover who cared for her cat, affectionately called “Missy Kitty Cat.” She very much loved her young nephews and always liked little babies. But perhaps more than all these, she loved her brother Brian, known to her and always remembered as “Bubba;” although the nephews could sometimes be called “Bubba” also!)
Aimee loved to laugh.
She was preceded in death by her great uncle Jack Gross; grandmother Rosie Brunkow; grandfather Vernon Brunkow; grandfather Jim Haner; and her great aunt and great uncle Ruby and Virgil Mills; and many other great aunts and great uncles.
She leaves behind her parents, Jim and Arlene Haner; her brother Brian and wife Melinda Haner; nephews Ryan and Kyle Haner; grandmother Jean Haner; great aunt Ruth Gross; great aunt Dora Jane McWherter; great uncle Jim Parks and great aunt Mary Jenkins; and a large number of aunts, uncles, cousins and great-cousins. She is survived by many friends, including those at the Casco Area Workshop and Briarwood State School; as well as her Bethel Fellowship of Cleveland community, and many friends in the Drexel, Mo., community.
Visitation will be from 6-8 PM Friday, November 18, 2011 at the Mullinax Funeral Home, Drexel chapel (816) 657-4400. Funeral services will begin at 10:30 AM Saturday, November 19 at the Drexel Christian Church with Revs. Don Ogden and Bodie Bodenhamer officiating. Burial will follow in Sharon Cemetery near Drexel.

BCMH celebrating Home Care Week
“Because There is No Place Like Home”
Celebrating Home Care Week
November 13th-19th, 2011
“There’s no place like home.” Movie goers worldwide know this famous phrase from “The Wizards of Oz.” Despite the wonders of Oz, Dorothy clicks the heels of her ruby shoes and repeats these words again and again, the spell that will send her back to Auntie Em. She longs to go back to Kansas because there is no place like home.
Millions of people feel that way, especially if they’re aged, disabled, or ill. Many of them are in hospitals and nursing homes where they, too, long for the homes they knew. But they don’t need ruby slippers to send them back. They just need a helping hand, and that’s where home care can assist. Home care helps clients return to their home and keeps them safe and healthy at home. It preserves their dignity, protects their independence, and provides them with peace of mind.
For Twenty Years, Bates County Memorial Hospital Homecare has provided Home Health Services, for the citizens of Bates County. This week is Home Care Week, and the staff of BCMH Home Care department invites you to celebrate with an information table in the front lobby, treats, and word puzzle to complete for a drawing on Friday, November 18th.
-our thanks to Bates County Memorial Hospital
