Shawn “Shawny” was born on July 14, 1989 the son of Shawn Sr. and Laurie (Miller) Mueller in Hartford, Wisconsin. He was a graduate of Waupun High School. He had been employed as a maintenance technician and also in construction throughout the area.
Shawn was an avid and skilled hunter and fisherman; the definition of a true outdoorsman. It did not matter what it was: duck, pheasant, turkey, deer, salmon, or walleye; he was hunting or fishing it. He also enjoyed sharing his knowledge, his expertise, and his guidance with family and friends. Shawn loved spending his summers on his boat participating in fishing tournaments. He also looked forward to the beginning of hunting season, always so excited to share these experiences with his boys, Brody and Caleb.
Shawn also enjoyed camping with friends and family, but especially his two boys. He loved sitting around a campfire without a care in the world sharing stories and memories. Shawn was a great friend to so many, everyone referred to him as their brother. He also enjoyed showing off his unique dance moves that were far better in his mind than in reality. He was a comedian and loved to make people laugh and smile; kids adored him. Brody and Caleb were his world and he would have done anything for them. Shawn will always be with them as their guardian angel to protect and watch over them.
Shawn will be deeply missed by: his Mom Laurie Ann, his Dad Daniel Hill; Sisters: Mandi Rounds (Josh Rounds) and Ashley Mueller (David Powell-Johnson); Niece Brooke, Nephew Owen; Grandmother Shirley Wigman; Sons: Brody and Caleb Mueller; Fiancée Avery Griesbach; Uncle Joe; and his faithful canine companions: Teal and Izzy. He is further survived by Aunts, Uncles, other relatives and many friends.
He was preceded in death by his Father Shawn Mueller Sr., Grandfather Michael Wigman, and Grandparents Eugene and Diane Mueller, and Uncle Rob Miller.
