Greenville, WI (formerly of the Racine/Kenosha area) – Robert Franklin Hagen, age 82, passed away peacefully at home on Wednesday, May 27, 2020 following a courageous battle with pancreatic cancer.

A graduate of Lincoln High School in Wisconsin Rapids, Bob, an accomplished Eagle Scout went on to attend University of Wisconsin – Whitewater.

Bob was employed as an accountant at Western Publishing for many years and later moving to Gasper Corporation. Bob had been a member of Messiah Lutheran Church in Kenosha. Among his interests, he was an avid coin collector, talented violinist, Jeopardy guru, was always up for a good card game and an occasional Hamm’s beer.
