In Loving Memory of Liam Clowers — Standing with the Clowers Family in Their Time of Loss
It is with the heaviest of hearts that we share the heartbreaking news of the passing of Liam Clowers — a young life gone far too soon and a tragedy that has shaken the Clowers family, their friends, and the entire Nebraska City community. The sorrow surrounding this loss is profound and difficult to put into words. Our hearts are with Liam’s family during this time of unimaginable grief.
For those who may not know, Liam’s father was part of our team for several years, working alongside Jesse before stepping out on his own to build a business with the same work ethic and heart that we came to know and respect so deeply. The Clowers family has been a part of our extended family for a long time, and in moments like this, we believe it’s our responsibility — and our privilege — to stand with them in their time of need.
In light of this tragedy, we are making a shift in our plans for this weekend’s beef sale. Instead of offering our originally scheduled 10% off sale, we have decided that all items will remain at their regular price — but 15% of ALL sales this weekend will go directly to support the Clowers family. We apologize for the last-minute change, but we trust our customers, friends, and community will understand that some things are bigger than business.
For anyone who wishes to do more, we will gladly accept direct donations on behalf of the Clowers family. Every single dollar — along with the names of those who contribute — will be passed on to the family so they know who is standing with them in this painful time. This is about coming together as a community, showing love, and offering tangible support to a family whose world has been turned upside down.
Our hearts especially go out to the members of the Nebraska City Farmers Market and the residents who witnessed this tragedy firsthand. We cannot begin to fathom the weight of grief and loss that has settled over our friends, neighbors, and fellow families. But we can walk beside them, offering strength, love, and the reminder that they are not alone.
In times like these, community means everything. We are committed to doing whatever we can to support the Clowers family and to honor Liam’s memory in a way that reflects the compassion and generosity he deserved.
We ask you to please keep Liam’s family in your thoughts and prayers. Reach out in kindness. And if you feel called to contribute — whether through this weekend’s sales or direct donation — know that every act of love matters.
Rest in peace, Liam Clowers.
May your memory be a blessing, and may your family find strength in the love that surrounds them.
