Ranae Kay (Hoffman) Van Zeeland, age 36, passed away unexpectedly on September 6, 2014. Ranae was born on November 7, 1977 in Appleton to Thomas Hoffman and Jean (Neitzer) Heim.
Ranae graduated from Kaukauna High School in 1996. After graduation, Ranae worked as a CNA at a nursing home. She then worked at ServPro performing hazmat and restoration services. She then continued to work as a bartender and cook at K-Town Sports Bar & Grill, her family's business in Kaukauna. She made homemade soups and many menu favorites. Ranae was a well-loved part of the K-Town family and treasured all of her customers and the relationships she built with them.
Ranae was an avid pool shark, shooting for the past 15 years. Her passion for music led her to see many concerts and live band performances. She enjoyed singing everywhere she went, especially karaoke with friends.
Ranae's life revolved around her children, Tori and Lukas, her fiancé Adam, and his children Aaron and Ashley. She rescued many animals that became valued family pets including many fish, dogs (Stella and Hank), kitten (Blaze), hamsters (Peaches and Zelda) and numerous others. Ranae always supported her friends and family in hard times.
Ranae's spontaneous personality led her to enjoy the outdoors. She was most passionate about horseback riding and knee boarding. The rest of her free time was spent up north where she four wheeled, fished, and boated with family and friends.
Ranae is survived by her children, Victoria “Tori” Wheelock and Lukas Van Zeeland; her fiancé Adam Eichmeier and his children Aaron and Ashley. She is further survived by her parents Thomas (Barb) Hoffman and Jean (Jeff) Heim; siblings, Michelle (Pat) DeGroot and Travis (Susie) Hoffman; step siblings, Erin Heim, Allen Heim, Chris (John) Wolf, Lisa (Dave) Carnot, Steve (Sara) Emmer; niece Samantha DeGroot and nephew Alex DeGroot; and many aunts, uncles, cousins, other relatives and friends.
A time of visitation for Ranae will be held on September 13, 2014, from 9:00 a.m. until 1:00 p.m. at FARGO FUNERAL HOME, 400 W Wisconsin Avenue, Kaukauna. A short prayer and sharing of memories will be held midway through the visitation for the public at 11:00 a.m. After the sharing of memories, the visitation will resume. Online condolences may be offered at www.wichmannfargo.com. In lieu of flowers a memorial fund is being established for Tori and Lukas.

Ranae it has been almost 2 weeks since you left my life. This is by far the hardest thing I have ever had to deal with. The pain in heart is almost unbearable. Everything I do reminds me of you. From the fish tanks to the dogs. I am struggling. Please help me to be able to be strong for the kids. I miss you so bad and you will always be my princess. I love you with all that I am. Love and miss you honey. Your prince

We didn't know each other all that well but I have met this nice beautiful lady before. I've met Ranae while shooting pool against her on a pool league. Great shot and had me beat no problem. Then realized she was bar tending at K Town. Our team and I would stop in K Town on nights after playing softball in the summer time and after bowling in the winter time. With that smile Ranae always had on her face, she will always be missed.
Sorry for your loss.

We were so shocked and saddened to hear the news. We enjoyed many nights of Karaoke at K-Town and always enjoyed when Renae chimed in with her unique voice and one of a kind attitude. She truly lit up the room and made everyone feel at home. Someone mentioned that she was like a firecracker. She lived life to the fullest and never did anything half way. It was all or nothing. Her life on Earth may have been cut short, but now Renae will be a star in the sky shining down on all of us, reminding us to never loose sight of the light life has to offer, and to never let life be dull. You will be missed so very much. Paul Ruhland and Diane Angeletti

bear, strength and courage we will find, our beloved Ranae always in our

in our thoughts forever you will be, never knowing why someone set you

When I heard the news my first thought was no way, not Ranae then it became clear it was her.. Every time our paths crossed she was happy and welcoming. You can just tell the special people that have a light or just a brightness around them, she had it always.. She will be missed by many and never forgotten. My heart aches for the children involved, Adam, and of course the rest of her family and close friends. It just wont be the same to walk into the bar without a big welcoming hello from her :(..The last time I saw her was a Rock USA and I remember our hug when we saw each other and that picture will stay forever in my mind. Her big smile and opening arms.. Man, not fair she was taken from so many people at such a young age. We had plans to meet up more, but now I will have to wait even longer to do so.. Love you Ranae and see you on the other side

When I heard the news my first thought was no way, not Ranae then it became clear it was her.. Every time our paths crossed she was happy and welcoming. You can just tell the special people that have a light or just a brightness around them, she had it always.. She will be missed by many and never forgotten. My heart aches for the children involved, Adam, and of course the rest of her family and close friends. It just wont be the same to walk into the bar without a big welcoming hello from her :(..The last time I saw her was a Rock USA and I remember our hug when we saw each other and that picture will stay forever in my mind. Her big smile and opening arms.. Man, not fair she was taken from so many people at such a young age. We had plans to meet up more, but now I will have to wait even longer to do so.. Love you Ranae and see you on the other side
