Rodney "Rod" Hannon, age 89, passed away peacefully Monday, July 15, 2024 at University Hospital in Madison, Wisconsin.

The Memorial Mass of Christian Burial will be held Tuesday, July 30, 2024 at 11:00 a.m. at St. Joseph's Catholic Church in Baraboo, Wisconsin with Father John Blewett celebrating. There will be no visitation. Interment will be at St. Michael's Cemetery, Baraboo.

Rodney was born September 15, 1934 on the family farm in Reedsburg, Wisconsin the fifth child and only son of Philip Leo Hannon and Ella Jane (Murphy) Hannon. The farm is a centennial farm that Rodney was proud to call home his entire life. Rod lost his father while in high school and he returned to the family farm to continue the dairy operation while continuing classes in order to graduate from Reedsburg High School in 1952.

Rod eventually rented out the farm and began work as a realtor and sold insurance. He was a long time member of St. Joseph's Catholic Church in Baraboo. He enjoyed chatting, "working on a deal", chopping wood and walking at HoChunk Casino. His family will miss the calls they received from "Reedsburg Rod".

Rodney will be fondly remembered by his nieces and nephews and their families; Patti (David) Grosenick, Robert (Susan) Brill, Mark (Susan) Gunn, Michael (Lorie) Jurick, Barbara (Robert) Hoskins, Maureen Hunter, Bernard Jurick and Mary (Richard) Leonard. He was preceded in death by his parents and sisters and their spouses; Jane and Everett Brill, Phyllis Hannon, Rosemary and Biddle Gunn, Joyce and Robert Jurick and a niece, Kathy Jurick Freson.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations to St. Jude's Research Hospital would be appreciated.
