Ivan Eugene "Mean Gene" Hannah, 74, of Coffeyville, Kansas, passed away on Monday, March 30, 2026, leaving behind a lifetime of hard work, resilience, and a deep connection to the outdoors.

Ivan was born on August 6, 1951, in Coffeyville, Kansas, to Ivan B. Hannah and Frances Louise (Keeling) Hannah. He grew up in Coffeyville and graduated from Field Kindley High School, where he built the foundation for a life defined by dedication and grit.

Ivan worked as a welder and retired from Watco, where he took pride in repairing railroad cars.

Outside of work, Ivan found his greatest peace in the outdoors. He loved fishing and hunting, and those who knew him best understood that this was where he felt most at home-quietly enjoying nature in his own way.

He is survived by his children: Doug Hannah and his wife Tina, and their daughter Zoe and her husband Lane; Steve Hannah and his wife Melissa, and their son Tyler and his wife Alexis, and their daughter Kylie and her husband Blake.

He also leaves behind his cherished great-grandchildren: C**t Hannah, Wyatt Hannah, Cohen Davis d Blakely Davis, with two more great-grandchildren expected soon.

Ivan is also survived by his brothers, David Hannah and his wife Linda, and Tim Hannah; as well as his niece, Isabella Hannah.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Ivan B. Hannah and Frances Louise Hannah, and his wife, Carol Hannah.

Ivan will be remembered as a man who lived life on his own terms-strong-willed, hardworking, and deeply rooted in the simple things he loved most. Known to many as "Mean Gene," he certainly earned the nickname, often saying exactly what was on his mind whether you were ready to hear it or not. He could be tough around the edges and more than a little stubborn, but those who knew him best understood there was more beneath the surface-and that his way of caring didn't always come wrapped in soft words.

He showed up for his family in his own way, and his presence-unforgettable and unmistakably his- will be missed. His stories, his grit, and yes, even that famous stubborn streak (that lives on in more than a few family members) will continue to bring both smiles and memories for years to come.

Cremation has taken place under the direction of David W. Barnes Funeral Home in Coffeyville.

A memorial service will be held on April 18th at 2:00 PM. For more information or to attend, please contact Doug or Steve.
