Brian Lee Stadler

Brian Stadler, age 49 of Key West, FL, formerly of Hudson, WI, died on October 29, 2017.

Brian was born on July 13, 1968 in Kaukauna, WI. to Gerald and Rosemary Stadler. He met the love of his life, Wendy Klaes and they were blessed with two sons, Justin and Bryce. Brian worked as a Online Banking Officer and Call Center Manager at First State Bank of the Florida Keys.

Brian treasured the island life with all its tropical sunshine. He loved to be out on his boat exploring the deep blue sea while fishing; and hunting at the family cabin. Brian was a selfless man who went out of his way to help others. He took pride in being committed to those he cherished. Brian was genuine, thoughtful and hilarious and had a creative zest for life. If you could sum him up in one sentence it would be, “Toes in the water, butt in the sand, not a worry in the world, a cold beer in my hand, life is good today.”

Brian is survived by the love of his life, Wendy Klaes; sons, Justin and Bryce Stadler; siblings, Bob (Barb) Stadler, Betty Dunsmore, Joe (Sandy) Stadler, Jim (Sharon) Stadler, Diane Stadler, Shirley Stadler, Karen Stadler, Linda (Shawn) Rivard, and Bruce Stadler; as well as many nieces, nephews, other relatives, and dear friends.
