Jeffrey Michael "Jeff" Rang, 51, of Norwalk, passed peacefully into Heaven on Tuesday, Nov. 12, 2024, from an unforeseen pulmonary embolism.

He was born to Kathleen Nelson and Michael Rang on July 7, 1973, his parents' first wedding anniversary.

Jeff is survived by his parents, Kathleen Nelson and Michael (Jan) Rang of Norwalk; four precious children, Chase Rang (25), of Orlando, Florida, and Gabriel (20), Zachary (18), and Gracie Rang (17) of Huron; five sisters, Dawn Suchy of Beavercreek, Bethany (Andrew) Mikesell of Kettering, Stephanie (Joshua) Bundren of Norwalk, Stacie (Ray) Myers of Mansfield, and Kelly (Joff) Moine of Mason; numerous nieces and nephews; and best friend on earth and first cousin, Kimberly (Jason) Dills of Norwalk.

As a graduate of Norwalk High School, Jeff was extremely outgoing and had many friends. He excelled on the tennis team and competed at state his senior year. To this day, his tennis team's picture adorns the main wall of athletic champions at N.H.S. Not only was he passionate about tennis, but Jeff loved watching football and baseball, especially Cleveland Browns and Cleveland Guardians.

Jeff honorably served four years in U.S. Air Force and earned a Bachelor's Degree in Business at St. Leo University in South Carolina. His prior employment included Humanetics ATD Manufacturing in Huron where he did calibrations on crash test dummies.

We, Jeff's family and friends, feel a tremendous void in our lives. Although he is no longer with us, he will never be forgotten. He was a humble man with a kind and loving heart. Jeff's passion for life focused on putting God and family first and was willing to share the good news of Jesus with anyone willing to listen. Without fail, Jeff prayed daily for the well-being and salvation of his four children. His faithfulness will have everlasting impacts on eternity.

Although Jeff has left this world physically, his spirit will live on in the hearts of those who were blessed to have shared in his life. We need not say goodbye, but rather until we meet again. We love you so much, Jeff!!!
