He passed away on May 13, 2023 at Scripps Memorial Hospital in La Jolla, California at the age of 49 years, 1 month, 19 days. He was one of 3 children born in the family. Brice was raised in Fairmont, Nebraska and graduated from Fairmont High School with the class of 1992. After graduation, Brice attended the University of Nebraska at Lincoln and obtained his Bachelor of Science Degree in Construction Management in 1997. While in college, Brice married Cecilia Serna on August 6, 1994 and they moved to Seward, Nebraska after starting their family. Brice and the family then moved to Omaha and he eventually became the president of E&K Drywall, serving in this role for 15 years. In 2018, the family moved to Kansas City, Kansas and Brice grew in his role and became the CEO of CDM Investment Group/E&K Drywall Inc/Fellert. Brice was a member of the United Methodist Church of the Resurrection in Leawood, Kansas. Brice was an avid sports fan and he followed football, basketball, and NASCAR. He also loved hunting, fishing, boating, sports shooting and golfing. Other favorite pastimes included cooking food for family and friends, often preparing more than needed! His favorite meal to prepare and eat was breakfast, and he was often referred to as the “breakfast dad.” He also made the best chili and was proud of all of his culinary efforts. Brice’s greatest love was spending time with his family grilling on the weekends, going to church, attending events, and playing with is dog Luna. Beyond Ceic and the boys, he looked forward to time spent with his parents, twin brother Jeff, and sister Michelle and their families. No distance or busy schedules could keep him from making his family a priority and spending time with them whenever they could make it happen. Brice was everybody’s best friend and everyone knew that he loved and cared about them. He gave more than he took, and his business acumen was a result from people knowing they could count on him in friendship and business. Brice was also a very charitable person and had a special interest in charities and foundations that dealt with childhood cancers and illnesses. He was larger than life, contagiously happy, and everyone felt his big heart. He left a tremendous mark on this world and will be greatly missed by all that knew him. Even the universe cried for Brice because it rained for days following his passing. Brice was preceded in death by his grandparents, Ewald & Elsie Werschke and Elton & Vivian Neiman; aunt and uncle, Dianne Bechthold and Gary Werschke; and mother-in-law & father-in-law, Cecilia & Felix Cruz. He is survived by his wife, Cecilia of Overland Park, Kansas; sons Jesse, Jacob, and Jamie of Overland Park, Kansas; parents, Larry & Linda Neiman of Beatrice, Nebraska; twin brother Jeffrey Neiman and wife Peiper of Fairmont, Nebraska; sister, Michelle Carver and husband Brian of Pickrell, Nebraska; nephews, Finn Neiman and Grant Carver; nieces, Samantha Carver, Lux Neiman and Lark Neiman; brother-in-law, Luis Serna and wife Jill of Firth, Nebraska; sister-in-law Melissa Fauver and husband Scott of Lincoln, Nebraska; nephews Zach Serna and Alex Serna; nieces, Isabella Fauver, Kristen Greenough, Cece Serna, Bri Serna, and Chloe Serna; and many friends.
