  Appleton Post Crescent
  Ben was born in Appleton, on a rainy March 28, 1988, to Steve and Ann Van Handel. He attended Jefferson Elementary, Wilson Middle School and graduated from Appleton West High School in 2006. He then attended the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, and will receive his Bachelor's Degree in Economics with minors in Math and Statistics in May. Ben loved rainy days, Minneapolis, the Packers and Brewers, his family and friends and sports, for which he had an incredible mind for sports statistics. Because of the loving giving person Ben was, it was his wish to continue giving by donating his organs so that others could enjoy life as much as he did. In addition to his parents, Ben will be sadly missed by his sister, Rachel; his paternal grandparents, Ray and Marge Van Handel; aunts and uncles, Dan and Debbie Van Handel, Kelly Minten, Sally and Bud Jenks, Jane and Pete Ruckdashel, Bill and Deb Fermanich, Joe and Sally Fermanich, Mary and Dale Youngs, Kevin and Jill Fermanich, Karen and Andy Ratzlaff and Kriss Nett; and cousins, Eric and Lauren Van Handel, Kelsey and Lindsey Minten, Scott, Becky, Emily and Eric Jenks, Katie (Steve) Zurawski, Diane Ruckdashel, Kim (Dan) Gindt, Rob (Wendy) Fermanich, Jessica (Duston) Quandt, Andy (Kim) Fermanich, Molly (Alex) Rambo, Caitlin Fermanich (Josh Peirick), Ellie, Sam, Jenna and David Youngs, Lydia and Wesley Fermanich, Tara, Sam and Megan Ratzlaff, Adam and Kalee Nett. He is also survived by his many friends from Appleton and from the U that he loved dearly and considered his family. He will be greeted in Heaven by his maternal grandparents, Victor and Hildegarde Fermanich; and his uncles, Kenny and Bob Fermanich. Visitation will be held Tuesday, April 26, 2011, at ST. BERNARD PARISH (1617 W. Pine St., Appleton) from 2:30 p.m. until the time of Mass at 6:30 p.m. The Rev. Dennis Ryan will officiate. In lieu of flowers, a memorial is being established.
