Bradley Alan Hasenstein, 36, of Sheboygan, passed away Tuesday July 16th, 2013 surrounded by family.
Bradley was born to Glen and Linda (Page) Hasenstein, August 12, 1976, in Sheboygan, WI. He graduated from North High School in 1995 and received an associate's degree as an Electro-Mechanical Technician from Lakeshore Technical College in 1997. He was employed as a Controls Technician at Johnsonville Foods. He married Amy Meyer in 2002.
Brad had a diverse background of his employment through his life. He worked at Luedke's Meat Market doing various jobs behind the counter and serving customers and cutting meat. When Luedke's closed he moved to Kohler Company starting as a handyman on the Hermann Line getting promoted to a Mechanic and eventually to an Electrician in the Engines Division where he began his legacy learning Programmable Logic Controller code. Brad moved to Lakeside Foods in Belgium, WI where he used his skills developing automation in a self-heating coffee can line as well as the vegetable canning plant. Most notably he designed and programmed a water reclamation system that significantly reduced water usage for the plant. Brad used his experience to land his dream job of being a Controls Technician with Johnsonville Sausage. He was mentored to excel at this position advancing not only Johnsonville's equipment but their Maintenance and Production members as well.
Brad pioneered the outdoors for his family, mentoring sons, daughters, brothers, sisters, nieces, nephews and friends especially in the areas of deer hunting and fishing. He thoroughly enjoyed Great Lakes Salmon fishing and made sure all who came along enjoyed the experience. He was recently introduced to snowmobiling in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan where he enjoyed carving through deep snow and jumping snowdrifts in the woods. He loved to spend time with his family, always sharing his hobbies and time with them. Most of all he loved his children, being very involved in their lives as a soccer coach and always bringing them on outdoor adventures. He will be remembered for his sense of humor and love he had for his family and friends.
Brad was a member of St. Paul's Lutheran Church.
In addition to his wife, Amy, Bradley is survived by his children: Hannah, Megan, and Adam. He is also survived by his parents, Glen (Linda) Hasenstein and siblings: Angela (Tim) Brunette, William (Angela) Hasenstein, Rachel (Dave) Grycan, Timothy (Ann) Hasenstein, Benjamin Hasenstein, and Joseph (Kristi) Hasenstein, and nieces and nephews: Amber (Tim) Arnold, Cassie, Brittany, Devon, Derrick, Hayden, Hunter, Colby, Emily, Zach, Sam, Colin, Jack, and Mitchell; great-niece, Jaelyn; 17 cousins; and other relatives and friends.
Bradley was preceded in death by his grandparents, Herb and Frieda (Lang) Hasenstein and Charles and Agnes (Imm) Page.
His humor and positive attitude brought to life any situation and made him very memorable to anyone that met him.

Amy & children - Brad loved you all very much. Life can be difficult at times, but as you look to your Heavenly Father He will fill you with His unconditional love and peace. I pray God sends His Holy Spirit to comfort you and fill the hole in your heart. The Holy Spirt is also our Helper and I pray He guides and helps you through these difficult times. Draw close to God and He will draw close to you. His son, Jesus is your Redeemer and Savior. God loves you and so do I.

To all of Brad's family members, please accept my deepest sympathy for your loss. This was very sad news. I worked with Brad in the Engine Maintenance group at Kohler Co. He was quite a character. We refered to him as "The Boy" or as his free name "B Rad". He will be missed greatly. Though I have not seen him since he moved on from Kohler, but thought about him now and then over the years since. May God continue to bless you all and send you comfort in this time of great sorrow.

Brad was a very close friend to my father (Roy Potter) and I was lucky enough to be able to babysit for Hannah and Megan for quite some time before I moved to Oklahoma in 2009. The thing I remember most was that Brad and his family always attended all the little events we had at the Outboard Club. Birthdays, holidays, confirmations, graduations...you name it, they were there. My dad and Brad met through their work at Kohler Co. and remained friends. They shared a passion for fishing and hunting and were often together out on the lake.
I'll always remember him as a close friend of my dad's who was always in high spirits and had a smile on. You'll be missed terribly. Prayers to all his family.

My thoughts and prayers to the family and friends of Brad as you remember and love the person who he was. A loving husband and father, a son, a friend, and a sharer of what life has to offer. As friends and family gather to celebrate his life take with you the memories of his time with you. Share the laughter and the hugs. Brad was with you but a short time but time enough to make a difference. May God's love and peace be with you today.
