Tanner Joseph Henschel, age 15, of Winneconne, went to heaven on Tuesday, August 2, 2016. He was born January 10, 2001, in Appleton at St. Elizabeth Hospital to Michael and Donna (Fritsch) Henschel. Tanner would have been a sophomore at Winneconne High School, where he was on the baseball and wrestling teams. He enjoyed hunting, fishing, golfing, and snowboarding. Tanner had a passion for the outdoors, whether it was fishing with his uncles or hunting with his dad and brother Ryan. Tanner enjoyed shopping with his mother and sister Danielle; he had a passion for fashion. Tanner loved lots of color, which showed in his collection of bright shirts, socks, and Nike tennis shoes. He also felt a sense of belonging when he was hanging out with the older boys at school or just mingling with other friends and relatives. He never had a problem talking to anyone, and it showed through his "charisma" and big smile. Tanner was also "Mom's little chef" in the kitchen and "Dad's mechanic" in the shop. Whether it was building a hunting stand or fixing a computer, he knew how to do it all. Tanner was so talented in so many ways, it just came natural to him. Tanner is survived by his parents, Mike and Donna Henschel; a brother, Ryan Henschel (special friend, Kayci); a sister, Danielle Henschel; grandmother, Vera Henschel; uncles and aunts, Gary (Gail) Henschel, Darlene (Steve) Boegh, Rodney (Sue) Henschel, Tom (Patti) Henschel, Cheryl (Tom) McCutcheon, James (Kara) Henschel, John Henschel, Jean Hamilton, Ken (Mary) Fritsch, John (Beth) Fritsch, Paul (Susie) Fritsch; twenty-nine first cousins; and many other relatives and friends. Preceding Tanner in death were grandparents, Marlyn and Marilyn Henschel, Leo and Betty Fritsch, and Aunt Debbie Fritsch. His love for his dog's Riley and Bella was unforgiving. Tanner, a big part of me is gone forever. Until we meet again. I love you and miss you so much... Love, Danielle Tanner, every day I hear your laugh; it makes me remember all of the good times we have had together. We had a bond like the baseball landing into the glove. Hunting and fishing will never be the same without you, buddy, but I will be sure to keep your presence alive forever. I love you and I will miss you always... Love, Ryan Tanner, you were our light, you were our sunshine. Your contagious smile and laugh always lit up the room and will never be forgotten. I hope you knew how special you were to us. Our hearts are forever broken... Love, Mom and Dad A visitation for family and friends will be Sunday, August 7, 2016, from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. at St. Mary Catholic Church, 210 Pleasant Dr. Winneconne.
