Andrea Elizabeth Greenwell Prevo
April 28, 1973 — June 20, 2024
Andrea Prevo, 51, of Ogden, UT, passed away on Thursday, June 20, 2024 after a long battle with ovarian cancer.
Andrea was born in Lincoln, Nebraska on April 28, 1973 to Scott L. and Deborah A. Pommer Greenwell. She attended schools in Lincoln, NE, and Ogden, UT, graduating from Bonneville High School in 1991. She subsequently attended Weber State University and paid for her education by working as a department manager at Nordstrom. Andrea received a Bachelor of Science (BS) in Technical Sales.
She married Aaron P. Prevo on August 10, 2002 in Park City, UT. Andrea and Aaron chose to start their family in Ogden, UT so they could be close to extended family. Andrea raised four beautiful daughters, Addison Elizabeth Prevo (20), Mira Noelle Prevo (17), Ava Elaine Chun Xia Prevo (15), and Emerson Aerin Prevo (15). Andrea loved trips with her family to Southern California where they would spend time at Disneyland, days on the beach at Crystal Cove State Park, and warm evenings in Newport Beach. Any place with her girls and Aaron was her favorite place to be.
Andrea was a force of nature who lived life on her own terms. She was beautiful with an impeccable sense of style, but was best known for her fierce dedication to her family and her commitment to social justice; advocating for women’s rights, equality in education and medical care. Although she was fierce in her beliefs, she had a warm and compassionate heart, frequently helping people without them knowing their benefactor.
Andrea loved animals, lavishing them with care and attention. She and Aaron shared this love and filled their family home with no fewer than three cats and at least two dogs at a time. With all these animals and four girls plus their friends, their home was frequently chaotic, but they loved it that way. Andrea made the Prevo home a place where friends and family could gather for food and togetherness.
Andrea is survived by her loving husband, Aaron; her daughters, Addison, Mira, Ava, and Emerson; her parents, Scott and Deborah; her brother, Chandler and his wife Kaytee, and her nephew, McKane. She was preceded in death by her grandparents and her sister, Monique.
A celebration of life will be held in her memory.
The entire family wishes to thank everyone for their outpouring of affection and sympathy during this difficult time. In lieu of flowers, the family would ask you to consider making a donation to the Ovarian Cancer Research Alliance (OCRA) in Andrea’s name.
