Haley Oing

With heavy hearts we announce the passing of Haley Marie (Gesselman) Oing, who while surrounded by family, went peacefully to be with the Lord on May 24 at the Linda E. White Hospice House. Haley lived a vibrant life which was cut too short after her 2.5-year battle with stage four kidney cancer. She fought with unwavering courage and grace while enduring endless treatments and lived by the motto to “never give up”. Born on December 30 in Evansville, IN Haley was the beloved daughter of Michael and Karen (Miller) Gesselman. She grew up in Newburgh and graduated from Castle High School in 2011. She went on and earned a bachelor’s degree in radiologic imaging with a minor in healthcare administration from USI in May of 2015. In December of 2021 she earned her MBA in healthcare administration. Haley worked for Deaconess starting as a radiology patient assistant followed by a CT technologist and most recently was the Radiology Lead Service Line Educator for a combined total of 13 years. Haley loved her job and co-workers and considered many of them like family. Outside of work Haley enjoyed boating on Lake Barkley and camping with her family, being outdoors, spending time with friends on playdates with her daughter, and helping with the Special Olympics in Warrick County as a coach and unified partner. Haley brought sunshine wherever she went with her infectious laugh and unwavering kindness putting others first. She was an animal lover and routed for Purdue and the St. Louis Cardinals any chance she had. Haley never passed up a good rom com either. She was both loyal and dependable and became a friend to everyone she met. In August 2017 Haley met the love of her life, Tanner Oing. They were married on December 14, 2019, at St. Wendel Catholic Church. They had 6 blissful years together and welcomed a precious daughter, Wrenley Beth (4), in January 2022. Wrenley was the light in her mom’s eyes and the drive behind her courageous battle. They recently built their new home in May of 2025 following the loss of their home to a tornado in April of 2024. Haley is survived by her husband Tanner Oing; daughter, Wrenley Beth Oing; her father, Michael Gesselman, sister Katlynn Schnur (Nathan), and brother Kyle Gesselman; nephews Aiden, Blake, and Bryce Schnur; grandmother Charlotte Miller; in-laws Jim and Jackie Oing, brothers-in-law Blake and Reed Oing, as well as many aunts, uncles, and cousins.
