Cayden Glennon Brosnan Obituary
In addition to his loving parents Cory and Amanda (nee Mack) Brosnan, Cayden will be dearly missed by his sisters, Kayleigh, Kiera, Kennedy, and Kassidy; grandparents Samuel and Carol (nee Smet) Mack; Uncle Dave and Aunt Erin (nee Brosnan) Norder, Uncle Bryan Mack and Aunt Jamie Weyrauch, Aunt Amy; and cousins Keegan Norder, JJ and Deon Hayes, and Claire and Pacey Weyrauch. Cayden is further survived by many Great Aunts, Great Uncles, other family, and friends.
Cayden was a ray of sunshine, a ball of energy, he was what you would think any little boy would be. He loved to be outside all day long especially if he could be digging in the sandbox with his "digger", blowing bubbles, riding his motorcycle, chasing his ball, "jumpy jumping" on the trampoline, and playing "come here - go away" on the swing. During family walks in the neighborhood, Cayden was often spotted picking up sticks, balancing on the curb, and stopping at every manhole cover to stomp on it. A favorite along the walks was peeking inside the sewer drain grates while tossing in a rock or stick. He also enjoyed looking for the "Star", stopping to talk to "Mr. Toad" at the neighbors' houses, as well as trying to walk the dog, dropping the leash when he suddenly had to chase a sister on her bike.
Now if forced to be inside for whatever reason, his monster trucks, hot wheels, and any other toy trucks and cars provided him with hours of joy, driving them on anything and everything he could reach. With the spirit of a typical child, Cayden was often caught jumping off the back of the couch or trying to climb anything and everything … didn't matter if it wasn't meant for that. If he was caught in a still moment, which was few and far between, he was likely watching Paw 'trol, Laze, or Spidey while snuggling with his blanky and binker.
While all boy, Cayden was still a softy for his mommy, daddy, and sisters. He took great delight in snuggles, sitting in your lap, giving "kusses", high-fives and "pound it up". He loved seeing his Papa and working in the garage with him. He also loved it when Uncle Dave picked him up from school if mom and dad were busy. While soft for his family, he was also a good friend and loved people. Cayden's daycare teachers always said he was a joy in class and had a vibrant energy. While his life may have been cut short, he touched a lot of people's lives in that time, even if just a smile with those brilliant blue eyes shining at you, or a wave of his little hand.
Cayden was preceded in death by his Grandparents Daniel and Nancy (nee Hardaker) Brosnan and his Great Grandparents.
Cayden's family extends a heartfelt thank you to the Mukwonago EMS and Fire Department and the Village and Town of Mukwonago Police Departments for their valiant efforts and compassion in such a stressful time. They also thank the Little Lambs Daycare and Mary Linsmeier School staff for "always loving our boy like their own".
