BLACK EARTH - Michael Scott Fosshage, age 39, of Black Earth passed away unexpectedly at his home Sunday, May 10, 2026. He was born on March 24, 1987, in Madison, Wis., to Scott and Donna Fosshage. Mike was raised in Black Earth and attended Wisconsin Heights Schools, graduating high school in 2005. He then went on to MATC for welding and later became a journeymen steamfitter. For many years Mike was a valued employee at Precision Tactical where he enjoyed helping customers, sharing his knowledge, and building connections with those around him.
Michael was a wonderful son, brother, grandson, nephew, cousin and uncle. His family always came first. Mike was known for always checking in and helping whenever needed. Michael enjoyed snowmobiling, riding his ATV/UTV, hunting, farming, history, trips to Crandon and especially cherished time with his family and friends.
