Brett Iwanski Obituary
Brett Victor Iwanski, 25, of Madison, Wisconsin, passed away on September 3, 2025.
Born in Astrakhan, Russia, on August 19, 2000, Brett was the son of Thomas Iwanski (Lisa) and Susan Mitchell. He graduated from Foothill High School in Santa Ana, CA, and embarked on opportunities in Denver, Colorado, and finally in Madison, Wisconsin, which included manufacturing, assembly, and Ironworking. Brett loved his Hard Rock music, discovering new bands, Country Line Dancing, working on cars, and had a deep passion for learning about the Christian religion and the Bible. Brett always made a point of providing a warm handshake and greeting to the new people he would meet.
Brett is preceded in death by his sisters Sara and Molly and is survived by his sister Alina, stepsisters Marissa and Emma Kossiski, and Monique Mitchell.
Visitation will be from 11 am to 1 pm, with the ceremony to follow at Max A. Sass Funeral Home, located at 8910 W. Drexel Ave., Franklin, WI. A luncheon will follow on September 20th.
