Vanesa Renee Vannatta

Vanesa Renee Vannatta of St. Charles, MO went to her heavenly home on July 20, 2021 surrounded by family and a few close friends. She was born to Charles Wayne Vannatta and Elva Mae (Johnson) Vannatta on September 9, 1961 in Mexico, MO.

Vanesa was Service Center Director for SSM Healthcare. She loved her work, her work "family" and the service she and her teams provided over her 21 years with SSM.

She is survived by her mother Elva Mae Vannatta, her daughter Leah Nichole Hardy, her brother Stephen Dean Vannatta, her grandson Connor,  granddaughter Olivia, as well as her recently discovered family Ron Salmons, Sandra Bulson, Jim Salmons Jr. and Sherrie Attebery.

Vanesa also had a very close network of friends too numerous to mention. They  will cherish many memories and miss her lively character and love of music.

A visitation will be held at Baue Funeral Home in O'Fallon (311 Wood St. O'Fallon, MO 63366) on Friday September 17th, from 2 pm-3pm. A memorial service will immediately follow the visitation.
