Obituary

Jacob "Jake" Riley, age 25 of Brodhead, WI Passed away on Thursday, March 31, 2022. He was born on December 29, 1996, in Darlington, WI. He was an amazing father, loving husband to-be, beloved son, loving brother, and friend to too many to list. Jake worked alongside his dad and they shared an everlasting bond that will live on forever. Together, they enjoyed hunting and found a new love for the north where they would spend their time camping, fishing, and just enjoying the great outdoors.Jake loved rebuilding and working on cars with his soon to be father-in-law Jason Wenger and the "Oldman" Terri Wenger. He could be wild, crazy, and always make you laugh no matter the situation, but his family was his pride and joy. Jake cherished his family and every opportunity that he was able to spend with his children and fiancée. He enjoyed showing and teaching them about things that he and his dad would do together such as fishing and hunting. Though he was taken too soon, he left us with many happy memories that will always be cherished.Jake is survived by his children: Jameson Riley, Izac Kasten, Athena Carreras, and Fiancée Katie Wenger of Brodhead; his parents Jason and Kasa Riley of Argyle, WI; and his two siblings McKenzie Riley and Mia Riley.
