It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of John Haus, a beloved member of the Sauk Rapids, MN community, who departed this life leaving behind a legacy of kindness, strength, and unwavering devotion to his family and friends.
John was a man whose presence could light up any room. Known for his gentle spirit and his ability to find humor even in life’s most challenging moments, he touched the lives of everyone he encountered.
