Megan Barkemeyer Lindquist

June 2, 1982 - March 2, 2020

Megan Barkemeyer Lindquist, 37, formerly of Topeka, Kansas, passed away peacefully March 2, 2020, in Lincoln, Nebraska surrounded by her family. Megan was born June 2, 1982, to William and Janet Browne Barkemeyer. She attended Sacred Heart Grade School and graduated from Hayden Catholic High School in 2000. She married John Lindquist and relocated to Lincoln. They later divorced. Megan had a sharp wit and dry sense of humor. Though she was quiet she made people laugh and she loved to laugh. She had a strong, red-headed will. That red-headed will came out in two ways and often was a sign of her loving and caring heart. She many times took in others to give them a place to live or simply offer them a meal. Megan dearly loved her sons and her family. Her presence will be greatly missed. Grateful to have shared her life are her sons, Carson and Caden; her parents, Bill and Jan Barkemeyer; her siblings, Bill Barkemeyer, Jr. (Melissa), Trisha Ramirez (Bill), Brett Barkemeyer (Emily), Keith Barkemeyer (Christin), Chad Barkemeyer (Jenni) and Scott Barkemeyer (Sarah); and many nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles and cousins. Megan was preceded in death by a brother, Stephen, and niece, Lola Mae Barkemeyer. Her family will greet friends from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. Friday, March 13, at Kevin Brennan Family Funeral Home, 2801 SW Urish Road, Topeka KS 66614, where the rosary will be prayed at 6:30 p.m. Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at 10 a.m. Saturday, March 14, at Sacred Heart Catholic Church. Inurnment will follow at Mount Calvary Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the Megan Barkemeyer Lindquist Memorial Fund, to be used for her children’s needs, sent in care of the funeral home or to any Envista Credit Union.
