October 22, 1928 — July 14, 2023

Eugene J. "Gene" Van Hout, age 94, of Green Bay, passed away at his home, Friday, July 14, 2023. He was born October 22, 1928 in Big Stone City, SD, son of the late John H. and Mary L. (Paul) Van Hout and was a graduate of Catholic Central High School, Class of 1947.

Gene was drafted in the US Army in 1950. He proudly served his country, stationed in Germany, until his honorable discharge in 1952. He worked as a postal carrier with US Postal Service for his entire career, retiring after 30 years of service. Eugene also worked for 20 years at Bay Title on a part time basis.

Eugene was an avid golfer and bowler. He also enjoyed playing cards with his friends. For many years he coached basketball at Premontre High School and worked as an official.
