Jim is survived by: his children, Todd (Ginny) Brawner, and Janine (Ted) Calvillo, all of Hutchinson; grandchildren, Trent (Amy) Brawner, Tiffany Brawner, Peter (fianceé, Michelle Gallo) Calvillo, Ryan Calvillo, and Abby Calvillo; seven great-grandchildren; brothers, Jerry Brawner of Hutchinson, and Ronnie Brawner of Mason City, NE; and sister-in-law, Hazel Brawner of Hutchinson.
He was preceded in death by: his parents; wife, Rita Brawner; a grandchild; brothers, Delmar Brawner, Bill (Pat) Brawner, and Larry Brawner; sisters, Norma (John) Ardolino, and Clarissa (Jerry) Hoss; and sisters-in-law, Jan Brawner, and Patty Brawner.
