O Fallon | Save
Kevin Scott Ganger, age 60, of O’Fallon, Ill., passed away suddenly on September 10, 2026, at Barnes-Jewish Hospital in St. Louis, Mo., following injuries sustained in a fall.
Born June 23, 1966, in Winchester, Kan., he graduated from O’Fallon Township High School in 1985 and earned his associate degree from Southwestern Illinois College, formerly Belleville Area College, in 1987.
Kevin worked in painting, construction, real estate, lawn maintenance, and tree trimming and removal. After his children were born, he kept his work flexible so he could be a stay-at-home dad. More recently, Kevin returned to full-time work with the United States Postal Service as a Rural Carrier Assistant.
Kevin was always willing to help others and found happiness in being of service. While admitted to the Neuro ICU, he participated in a research study in the hope that his experience might benefit others in the future. He also became a donor through Mid-America Transplant, extending his spirit of giving beyond his life.
Kevin was preceded in death by mother, Sharon A. Ganger, and brother, Mark C. Ganger.
He is survived by wife, Catherine; daughter, Jessica; son, Trent; father, Marvin Ganger and his wife, Sharon; his brother and sister-in-law, Todd and Gerilyn Ganger; his sister-in-law, Sarah Cecil Ganger; his nephew, James Ganger; and his niece, Emma Ganger. He leaves behind many beloved family members in Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas, and Tennessee, and his beloved Foxfire yellow Labrador, Rylee.
Kevin will be remembered for his devotion to his family, his love of the outdoors, his willingness to help others, and the happiness he found in everyday moments with the people he loved. His influence will remain in the memories shared by his family and friends and in the lives touched by his kindness.
