Angelia Sue Head

Angelia “Angie” Sue Head of Cozad passed away Wednesday, April 10, 2024 at Good Samaritan Hospital in Kearney at the age of 58. Angie was born September 22, 1965 in Cozad, Nebraska to Doug and Darla (McNulty) Bowden. On May 3, 1982, she married Casey Joe Putnam in Julesburg, Colorado. Their union was blessed with a son, Michael. On October 10, 2008, Angie married James “Jimmy John” Head. Over the last few years, Angie worked as a housekeeper at Roadway Inn before leaving to go to work at the Cozad Grand Generation Center where she was the head cook, before her health forced her to leave. Angie was always helping others without ever asking for anything in return. She had a heart of gold and the most contagious smile that could light up any room. She enjoyed working with the employees at the center and convinced them to go together and purchase My Day tickets as a group. They lost more than they won, but certainly had fun trying. Just like her parents, Angie loved the gamble of lottery, sometimes she’d win and sometimes she’d lose. Beyond everything else in her life, Angie loved her family the most. She always talked about how proud she was of her son Michael and her three grandkids, McKenzie, Kyson and Kearson. It didn’t matter what was going on in her life, Angie always worried more about them and others, more than she ever did herself. Anytime she would talk about her family, she always had a big smile on her face because they were her everything. She will be deeply missed by her family, her friends and anyone else that had the honor to know her. Survivors include her husband, James of Cozad; son, Michael Putnam of North Platte; 3 grandchildren, McKenzie, Kyson and Kearson Putnam, all of North Platte; step daughter, Michelle Head of Omaha; sister, Lisa (Tim) Wolf of Cozad; 2 very close friends, Joe Putnam of Cambridge and Mitch Helmuth of Cozad; her beloved cat Ziggy and numerous other family members and many friends. Angie was preceded in death by her parents; grandparents; and mother-in-law.

A Dinner & Silent Auction Fundraiser honoring Angie is being held Sunday, April 21, 2024 from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at the Cozad Grand Generation Center, 410 West 9^th Street, Cozad, Nebraska.
