Art was a true outdoorsman and loved hunting and fishing. He was a faithful member of the Sportsman’s Club. More than anything though, he loved his family and grandchildren. He spent his days enjoying picking up the grandkids from school, taking them for ice cream and any outdoor activity, including wagon rides and any games that one could think of. His grandchildren were his world.
He is survived by his wife, Sharon, and their three sons, Brian (Tawnya) Schar and Chad (Rebecca) Schar, all of Marshfield, and Wesley (Wanda) Schar of LaCrosse. He is also survived by eight grandchildren, Michaela, Brandon, Madison, Raddley, Reign, Trystan, Ivory and Evan.
