Brian A. Vanevenhoven, age 41, of Appleton, passed away on Saturday, February 28, 2009, surrounded by his family, at Theda Clark Hospital following an auto accident.

Brian was united in marriage to Diane Hove on September 29, 1990 at Faith Lutheran Church in Appleton. Throughout his career in occupational therapy, Brian has worked in assisted living and sports medicine and has been dedicated to caring for the elderly and their needs. His great love was for his family, and he enjoyed family get aways, camping trips, the outdoors, and especially roller coaster rides with his girls. He was extremely proud of his two daughters and their accomplishments, and loved being present to watch their school and sports activities. He relished a good political debate, was a Green Bay Packer fan and loved his dogs.
