Wade Hansen
Wade grew up in Lindstrom, MN where he attended Chisago Lakes High School. He continued his education at St. Cloud State and eventually transferred to UW Madison where he obtained his bachelor’s degree in Sociology. Wade and Jennifer married in 1996 and had two beautiful children that meant the world to him. They moved to Waunakee in 2006 and he served on the Waunakee School Board from 2009-2015. Wade enjoyed coaching his kids hockey teams through the years and always reminisced about the good times he had. He especially liked the end of the year party when he awarded the kids a personalized ‘Coach Hansen’ Award. He poured hours upon hours to make sure each player had an award that suited their achievements that season. He also enjoyed Scouting events, hiking, camping, canoeing, and cooking! Wade loved to duck hunt, fish, ice-fish, spend time with his chocolate lab Sierra and listen to music. He was a fun loving, caring person who always loved helping others be their best self even when he struggled himself. A big thank you to those that reached out to him when he struggled. Your kindness did not go unnoticed.
Wade will be missed by his wife, Jennifer (Wetter) Hansen; children, Marina and Tyler Hansen; sisters, Wendy (Jeff) Doran and Cara Seibert; brothers, Corey (Katie) Hansen and Jeremy (Mindy) Hansen as well as his nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends.
He was preceded in death by his mother, Mary Brosious; father-in-law and mother-in-Law, Bill and Becky Wetter; brother-in-law, Troy Seibert.
