Brody W. Schumacher, 2-year-old son of Joseph and Shelby (Perleth) Schumacher, of 532 W. 17th St., died 11:40 a.m. Tuesday, Jan. 5, 2010, at the University of Iowa Children's Hospital, Iowa City, after a short and brave battle with liver cancer.
Services will be at 11 a.m. Saturday, Jan. 9, at St. Joseph's Catholic Church, Key West, Iowa, with the Rev. Donald Bakewell officiating. Burial will be in Mount Olivet Cemetery, Key West. Friends may call from 4 to 8 p.m. Friday, Jan. 8, at Leonard Funeral Home & Crematory, 2595 Rockdale Road, where there will be a wake service at 3:45 p.m.
