John was born February 8, 1930 in Texas, son of the late Asa and Selma Hasserodt. He served his country proudly in the United States Army. On October 4, 1952 he married Carolyn Wass.

They moved to Marshfield in 2013, where he currently resided until his death,

John was a gentle cowboy with a strong Texas accent that he carried through his entire life. He enjoyed wildlife and found himself "naming" just about every critter that he would see. He also loved baseball-Oh those Brewers, he was their greatest fan.

Survivors include his wife; Carolyn Hasserodt, Marshfield, son; Rex (Renee) Hasserodt, Marshfield, grandchildren; Ross Hasserodt, Minneapolis, Riley Hasserodt, Marshfield and Amie Hasserodt, Tomahawk and a brother; Leon Hasserodt, Colman, TX.

He was preceded in death by his parents, sons; Arthur and John Jr. and an infant daughter.

John is leaving behind some very special people, his best buddy; Bill Aden and wife Cindy. How he loved and cherished Bill, thank you Bill for your genuine friendship throughout the years. Lastly, his son, Rex, who was a huge part of his life in both caring for him in ill health and endless support. Rex, you've earned your wings.

A special thank you to the fine staff at St. Joseph's Hospital, 6th floor and ICU, your care and guidance was immeasurable.
