Benjamin Edward Voss

Service Details

Benjamin Edward Voss was born on June 28, 1976 to Janice (Heitmeier) and Ronald Voss in Iowa City, Iowa. He grew up there and attended Iowa City High School, graduating in 1994. Ben was a standout basketball player, and continued his basketball career at Kirkwood Community College.

Ben enjoyed everything to do with the outdoors, camping and fishing just to name a few. While Ben struggled with anxiety, he dreamed of the day where he could just lay down on a picnic table and look at the stars and let the worries of the world melt away. On April 22, 2022 Ben died at the age of 45, joining the stars he spent many nights looking at.

He was a good friend to all – patient, kind, caring, and enjoyed life’s simple pleasures. He will be missed by so many friends and family.

Ben is remembered by his mom, Janice (Heitmeier) Voss; sisters, Angela (Neil) Berns, Laurie (David) Jansen, Kim (Dave) Mills, and Renae (Vince) Fix; two aunts and an uncle; cousins; and nieces and nephews.

He was preceded by death by his dad, Ron Voss.

A memorial service will be held on Monday May 9, 2022 at Lutheran Church of Hope, 925 Jordan Creek Parkway in West Des Moines at 11:00 a.m. The service will be livestreamed at
