Joshua Vincent Hrabe passed away on September 12, 2024, at his home in Plainville, KS, at the age of 38. He was born on September 8, 1986, to Ronald and Raina (Mongeau) Hrabe in Plainville. He married Terri Kenney on September 17, 2011, in Plainville. They were blessed with three children: Jarron, Annabella and Blake.
Josh graduated from Plainville High School with the class of 2005, and attended NCK Technical College, in the electrical department. He grew up with a love for the land and a strong work ethic. As a farmer and rancher for Rock’n R Angus and Bar H Cattle, he maintained the farm with the same care and devotion he showed to his loved ones. His commitment to his profession was matched by his enthusiasm for his hobbies and interests.
Josh’s joy in life extended well beyond the farm. He was an avid baseball fan and cherished his time coaching his kids’ and youth teams in baseball and football, sharing his love for the sport. Josh also found joy in race car driving (always stating there was nothing he couldn’t drive or drive fast, earning him Plainville Lake Champion Mud Runner), hunting, fishing, and engaging in Bible studies, which provided him with spiritual strength and community. Josh’s greatest joy was spending time with his kids, whether it was playing video games, or simply enjoying their laughter and love.
Above all, Josh was a devoted family man. He is survived by his wife, Terri and their three young children, Jarron Vincent, Annabella Renae, and Blake Michael all of the home in Plainville; parents, Ronald and Raina Hrabe of Plainville; siblings, Tracey (Josh) Post of Great Bend, KS and Julie (Sandon) Slaubaugh of Hays, KS; grandmothers, Kirby Mongeau and Karleen Hrabe; nieces and nephews, Ryleigh, Halle, Camdyn, Fletcher, Elijah, Savanah, Leilah, Jessah (Josh’s “Darrel”), Ethan, Averie, and Van; and great-niece, Nova Rae.
He is preceded in death by his grandfathers, Roger Mongeau and Ronald Hrabe, and infant son, Jaden Vincent Hrabe.
Josh’s presence will be deeply missed by his family, who remember him as a loving and supportive husband, father, and friend. His spirit, kindness, and passion for life will be remembered. May his memory serve as a reminder of the beauty of living fully, loving deeply, and supporting one another through life’s challenges.
