Todd Aubrey Stoehr, 65, passed away Aug. 26, 2026, at Aspirus Langlade Hospital in Antigo, leaving behind a lifetime of cherished memories and the love of those who knew him best.

Cameron Wagner apparently left quite an impact on the people he knew.

The 13-year-old took his life March 19, but he was on the mind of many people at this year’s Oconto County Youth Fair, held Aug. 27-30 in Gillett, and the Lena/St. Thomas Aquinas football team’s home opener Aug. 27 at Lena High School, where he would have been a freshman this school year.

One minute, Josie Holtz was handing out ribbons to animal show exhibitors at the Oconto County Youth Fair.

The next minute, she was brushing Floppy, one of her two entrants in the fair’s swine show.

Exhibiting a pair of pigs and promoting the fair as the event’s Fairest of the Fair for 2026 added up to a busy few days for Holtz at the annual event, which wraps up its four-day run Aug. 30 in Gillett.

The Shawano Plan Commission began its review Aug. 26 of a number of actions that will need to be completed before Shawano County begins constructing its new government building to replace its current courthouse, which is over 70 years old.
