Carson McGrane, age 12, passed away Saturday, September 15, 2018 in Fairbank. He was born on December 5, 2005 in Waterloo, the son of James and Jodi (Lindstrom) McGrane. Carson recently began a new school year as a seventh grader at Wapsie Valley Community Schools. He was a very loyal friend and role model to kids of all ages. He was an active member of the youth wrestling club at Wapsie Valley. Carson also enjoyed playing football, hunting and riding snowmobiles. Most of all, he was a hard worker on and off the wrestling mat and football field. He was always looking for something to do, but his true passion was mowing lawns for family and friends. Aside from sports and mowing, Carson enjoyed fishing and riding jet skis on the Mississippi River. In his spare time, he loved riding his bike and hanging out with his friends. There was nothing Carson didn’t like or didn’t want to try. He touched the lives of so many people, young and old.

Carson is survived by his parents James and Jodi, one brother Devin Ledesma of Ankeny, maternal grandparents; Jim and Annie Lindstrom of Oelwein, paternal grandparents; LuAnne and Lonnie Bibler of Waverly, Dan (Luan) McGrane of Cedar Falls, great-grandparents; Max McGrane of Fairbank, Duane (Suzanne) Lewis of Waterloo, many aunts, uncles and cousins as well as his dog, Gizmo.
