Lane Martin VanIngen

The VanIngen family is deeply saddened to announce the death of Lane Martin VanIngen, while assured that he is now in heaven with his creator in peace away from the sufferings and conflicts of earth. Lane lived most recently in Orange Beach with Brenda Kaye VanIngen, to whom he was married for 58 years. They wed on August 2, 1965. Lane was born in Rochester, New York, on April 20, 1943, to the Honorable Jack VanIngen and his wife, Anne. He graduated from Bob Jones University in Greenville, SC, with a Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting, then eventually obtained his master’s degree in Information Systems (MIS) from the Keller Graduate School of Management in Chicago, Illinois. Lane was a hard-working, dependable, and resilient man who was devoted to his family, God, and his church. He was a true patriot in all ways, though he never served in the US Armed Forces. He was a loving and tender husband to his wife, Brenda, and to his children. He was a peaceful man who always maintained a positive outlook to friends and family, regardless of the circumstances he was experiencing. His actions made it clear that he was a follower and believed in Jesus Christ, and people could easily recognize that he was different because of his faith and his actions. Lane is preceded in death by his father, the Honorable Jack VanIngen, his mother Anne VanIngen, his brother Russell VanIngen, and his stepmother Virginia VanIngen. Lane is survived by his wife, Brenda, his son Lane S. VanIngen of Orange Beach, AL, and his daughters Jennifer Paccapaniccia (fiancé Jason Bontrager) and Jackie Monson (Stephen), both of whom reside in Greenville, SC. He is also survived by his sister Connie Babaoglu (PJ) of Hilton Head, SC, five (5) grandchildren, Austin VanIngen, Blake Monson, Megan Monson, Michael Paccapaniccia, and Jackson Paccapaniccia, and three (3) great-grandchildren, Stella, Ava, and Millie Mimms. Lane was a member of The Island Church in Orange Beach, AL, which will hold services for the VanIngen family on April 20, 2024, at 11am. The service occurs on what would have been his 81st birthday. He will be sorely missed by all who knew him, but we celebrate his life and memories that will endure long after his passing! The family requests those who wish to express sympathy to consider making a donation to The Island Church’s Island Mobile Food Pantry fund at https://pushpay.com/g/theislandchurch?src=hpp
