Serving Southern Jefferson County in the Great State of Montana

Cullen James Sehulster, 30

Cullen James Sehulster, age 30, passed away Tuesday morning, September 2, 2025, near Black River Falls, Wisconsin. He recently moved to Wisconsin in June of 2025.

Cullen was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, to Jennifer and Thomas Sehulster on October 11, 1994. Cullen has lived in many places: Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Crestline, California; and Roscoe, Illinois. He and his family moved to Montana in 2003. He grew up in Whitehall and Butte, Montana. He graduated from Butte Central Catholic grade school and Butte High School. Cullen was an athlete and enjoyed all sports, but soccer was his absolute favorite. He was a very good player. Cullen attended MSU Bozeman, where he took full advantage of college life and was always up for a good time.

Cullen found his true passion as a heavy equipment operator. He learned everything he could about each piece of equipment. He had a strong work ethic and was very dedicated to the projects at hand. His favorite machine was a dozer, especially the "super big ones." At the end of the day, he would kick off his boots in the cab, just him, the machine, and some good ole music.

Cullen loved the outdoors, whether it was fishing from a riverside or up in the mountains, shooting guns, getting stuck in the mud with one of his trucks, attending a rodeo, or gathering around a bonfire with some buddies. Cullen quite recently started attending Milwaukee Brewers baseball games, even buying his own customized, authentic Brewers jersey.

Cullen's time with us was short, but he sure did a lot of living in his 30 earthly years.

Cullen was a father to two beautiful children, Coltson Lane and Seeley Faith Sehulster, with his girlfriend Kelsey, and bonus children Madisyn and Logan. Cullen was a kid at heart. He'd be right there playing with Hot Wheels, remote control cars, and riding in Coltson's Jeep.

Cullen is survived by his children, Coltson Lane and Seeley Faith. He is further survived by his grandparents, Thomas and Patricia Bonness, and parents, Thomas and Jennifer Sehulster. He leaves behind his brothers Brett, Kaden, and Joseph; many aunts, uncles, and cousins also mourn. Blaze, his dog, and always a true best friend, will miss him for the rest of her days.

Awaiting Cullen in heaven are his brother Kieran Joseph John, his grandparents Joseph and Carmen Sehulster, and his uncle Mark Sehulster.

Cullen will be deeply missed and is so very loved.

Services were held on September 19, 2025, at St. Patrick Catholic Church. A Celebration of Life at the Copper King Convention Hall followed the burial.
