Kevin Lee Jari

1964-2021

Kevin Lee Jari, 56, passed away on Aug. 15, 2021 at home surrounded by family due to pancreatic cancer.

He was born on Dec. 14, 1964 to Joseph Jr. and Lou Ann (Ruesch) Jari and grew up in Medford, Wis., eventually making his way to Wausau.

Kevin worked for many years at Midwest Amusement where he truly felt like he was working with family. He also was proud of his children he shared with his former wife, Sandra (Busse) Hattlestad.

Loud music and motorcycles pretty much sum up Kevin to all who knew and loved him. He was even proud to enjoy his dreamboat before his health deteriorated. He had a deep care for others, and a big heart for his family and close friends. His sense of humor and his sparkle of happiness being around his goldens, Spencer and Marley, will be missed by many.

He is survived by his children, Kendra Row of Osseo and Kalen Jari of Weston; grandchildren, Meadow Row and Dexter Row; brother, Bernard L. Jari; favorite golden retrievers, Spencer and Marley; and many beloved friends and extended family.

Kevin was preceded in death by his parents and granddaughter, Leela Row.

An open house is scheduled from 4-7 p.m. Friday, Aug. 27 at the Brainard Funeral Home, Weston location, 5712 Memorial Ct.
