Bronwin was raised in the farming and ranching community surrounding Harrisburg, Nebraska. She graduated from Banner County High School in Harrisburg and then went on to Eastern Wyoming College in Torrington, Wyoming, where she graduated with honors with an Associate of Applied Science Degree. Bronwin was working on a degree in Psychology at the University of Wyoming when she decided to take a break from school and married Ronald “Jamie” Hanshew. The couple moved to the Sandhills of Nebraska, where Jamie’s love for the outdoors led him into ranching and Bronwin into using her restraint management skills. They returned to Western Nebraska and in 2007, Bronwin was offered a job with a local funeral home. She found the work a good fit and very rewarding: helping people during a difficult time in their lives. She received her degree in Mortuary Science form Des Moines Area Community College, Des Moines, Iowa in 2009 and her Nebraska Embalmer/Funeral Director license in February 2010. Bronwin joined the team at Bell Mortuary in March of 2015 and has found the rural setting of Glasgow very much like her original home. Bronwin enjoys cooking, photography, crafting, gardening and spending time with her family in their many shared activities. She and Jamie have two boys, Bryce and Jaydeen. They are active in 4-H, sports, hunting, fishing and taking care of numerous animals.
