John Beranek is the oldest of seven children to the farming family of Mary and Leo Beranek. He grew up in the Miller, SD area and was the child who was going to move the farthest away. You guessed it, today he is the closest to the family farm of any of the children.
Many of his life lessons have been taught by the comical Beranek clan.
John says “You spend your teen years trying to get away from the family that embarrass you and your early adult life learning your parents weren’t as dumb as you thought and the rest of your life is spent trying to leave a mark.”
“I hope at the end of my life I have left a deep mark of mistakes, lessons repeated until they were learned, a few tears and a whole lot of laughter to prove I have lived a full life.”
