Bio

Jerome B. Eckhout, 83, of Pleasanton, died May 23, 2023 at his home in Pleasanton. He was born June 30, 1939 in Kearney, Nebraska to Bernard and Mary (Nickman) Eckhout and was raised on a farm in Amherst, Nebraska. He was a good athlete and enjoyed competing in sports while in school. He graduated from Amherst High School in 1957. Jerome married (Muldoon) on February 8, 1958 and they made their home in Pleasanton. They had five children, including two sets of twins. Jerome was a hard-working farmer his entire life and never considered himself retired. He was a man of faith and served as a Trustee for St. Mary's Catholic Church in Pleasanton for several years. He was a member of the Pleasanton Volunteer Fire Department for many years and was a longtime member of the Elks. The greatest joy of his life was his family, especially the great-grandchildren. If he was in the room, those great-grandchildren would all want to sit on his lap and compete for his attention. He was preceded in death by two grandsons, Clint Eckhout and Michael Eckhout, a brother, John Eckhout, and two sisters, Bernadine Roth and Catherine Daake. Burial at the Pleasanton Cemetery.
