Justin Halbgewachs - Former Owner
(In Remembrance)

In 1996 a passion to serve people founded upon a deep faith in Jesus Christ would lead entrepreneur and accomplished musician, Justin Halbgewachs, to start Kearney Moving Service. While growing his business Justin also served his wife Julie of 20 years and their three children well. Julie would pass away in 2016 after a courageous battle with breast cancer.  In 2018, while valiantly fighting his own battle with brain cancer, Justin would marry Cherie, a mother of two who had served her husband of 26 years well through colon cancer. Tye's battle ended in 2016 with his homegoing 8 months prior to Julie's. In 2020, just 22 months into his marriage to Cherie, Justin joined Julie, Tye and his beloved Jesus in heaven. While Justin is very much missed, Kearney Moving Services continues on in the faith that it was founded upon and his passion to serve people continues to be our mission.
