Brian Vanzant

Brian Vanzant, aged 61, passed away peacefully on February 9, 2025, in Summerfield, Florida. Born on June 19, 1963, in Paducah, Kentucky, Brian became a well-respected businessman in his community as the owner of Vanzant's Wheel & Tire for many years.

Brian's love for old cars was paralleled only by his passion for the great outdoors. He was an avid golfer, found sincere joy in hunting, and never missed an opportunity to support his favorite baseball teams from the stands. His enthusiasm for these pastimes was infectious, and he was always ready to share stories of his latest adventure or restoration project.

Those who knew Brian will remember him as a man of integrity and cheerfulness, always willing to lend a hand or offer a word of encouragement. He leaves behind a legacy of warmth, dedication, and a deep appreciation for life's simple pleasures. Brian Vanzant will be truly missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing him.

Brian is survived by his loving wife of 36 years, April Vanzant of Lady Lake, Florida; a son, Brandon Vanzant of Lady Lake, Florida; a sister, Teresa (Mark) Wooley of Lexington, Kentucky; and several nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Robert Earl and Marianna Adams Vanzant.
