Adrian was born on July 16, 2009 in Aurora, Nebraska to Brian Harlow and Tasha Thomsen. Adrian brought light and laughter to all those around her. A student at High Plains High School in Polk, Nebraska, Adrian was known for her independent spirit. She played softball for her high school team and enjoyed spending time with her teammates and friends. She had a deep love for the outdoors and cherished the time she spent fishing with her father. Her gentle nature shone through in the way she cared for her bunnies an played with her niece Kinsley, nephew Gunnar, and her many young cousins. At family gatherings, Adrian was always a favorite among the little ones.
Adrian was looking forward to getting her driver’s license and one day pursuing a career as a welder.
She is survived by her father, Brian (Beef) Harlow; her mother, Tasha Thomsen; her sister, Cailen Harlow; niece, Kinsley; nephew, Gunnar; grandparents, Terry and Linda Harlow and Matt and Sherri Means; step-dad, Shane Deibert; step-sisters, Adi and Izzy Deibert; as well as several uncles, aunts and many cousins who loved her dearly.
She was preceded in death by her great-grandparents, Paula Simkins, Judy Denlinger, Frank and Illene Harlow, and Wayne Schuller.
In an act of profound generosity that reflects the depth of her character, Adrian donated her organs so that others might have the chance to live fuller lives. Her legacy will live on not only in the hearts of those who knew her but also in the lives she helped save.
Adrian was deeply loved and will be missed beyond measure. May her memory bring comfort to all who knew and cherished her.
