Aaron David Zschaechner, age 48 of Shiocton, passed away on Wednesday, August 6, 2025. Aaron was born in New London on March 19, 1977 to David and Mary Ann (Meisenhelder) Zschaechner. He was a mechanic and a builder. If he couldn't afford something, he would build it on his own. Aaron enjoyed working on cars and repairing them for people. Early in Aaron's working career, he worked concrete construction. He proved to be a very capable leader of men while guiding his crew. After that he worked in paper converting until his diagnosis of MS caused him to leave the business. Since then he has spent his time repairing vehicles for those who needed it. He was compassionate and took in people who couldn't afford repairs from big companies.

Aaron is survived by his father, David Zschaechner; his mother, Mary Ann Zschaechner; the mother of his children, Amber; Addrieanna, Millee, Cody, and Victoria; his siblings, Amy (Mike) Canterbury and Joelle (Ryan) Krol and his brother-in-law, Alex Brasch.

Aaron was preceded in death by his sister, Beth Brasch.

A Memorial Service for Aaron will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Friday, August 15, 2025 at First Evangelical Lutheran Church in Shiocton with Rev. Paul Hinz officiating. The visitation will take place from 9:00 a.m., until the time of the service. Burial will be in Union Cemetery, Town of Ellington.
