Kayla Mae Scherbarth, 1, of Elsie, passed away June 2, 2018, at Great Plains Health in North Platte.

Kayla was born on March 28, 2017. She is the daughter of Whitney Olson and Kurt Scherbarth. She was taken from us too soon at the age of 1 year and 2 months.

She loved her brothers, Matthew and Tyrel, and sister, Lillian. One of her joys was to watch them play and run. She also loved to snuggle, give kisses, rub foreheads, music, yell, laugh and giggle. Kayla would always look at you and give you a cheesy smile and say “you” and then pause and then say “go.” She loved everyone and everything.

She was preceded in death by her great-grandparents, Henry and Christiana Olson.

She is survived by those who loved her: Her parents, Whitney Olson and Kurt (girlfriend Dayna Cayer) Scherbarth of Wauneta; her siblings, Matthew, Tyrel and Lillian; grandparents, Mark and Sheila Olson of Elsie and Craig and Cheryl Scherbarth of Elsie; great-grandparents, Harold and Kay Suhr of Sutherland; auntie Lina Olson of Elsie; uncles, Kyle (Samantha) Scherbarth of Curtis and Justin of Elsie; aunts Sheila of Kearney and Angela (Mike) Kreutzer of Kearney; and many other cousins, great-aunts and -uncles, relatives and friends.

A memorial has been established in her memory for later designation by the family. Condolences may be shared at bullocklongfuneralhome.com.

Graveside services will be at 10 a.m. on Saturday, June 9, at the Elsie Cemetery. Bullock-Long Funeral Home, Grant, is in charge of arrangements.
