Timothy J Arant Obituary

Timothy Arant, aged 65, passed away peacefully surrounded by family and friends on Sunday, August 4, 2024 at St. Rita's hospital in Lima, Ohio. He was born on February 21, 1959, in Omaha, Nebraska to the late Robert W. and Marjorie R. (Meyer) Arant. He married Janet Strampe on June 21, 1980 and she survives in Elida. Tim moved in 2003 to Lima, Ohio with his family.

Tim worked as a software engineer, standing out as one of the best in his field. He enjoyed sailing, radio controlled planes, and flight in general which inspired him to skydive at the young age of 15 and earn his pilots license by 16. He was a pianist and singer-songwriter, sharing his talents with his church family and blessing countless people with his songs.

Tim never met a stranger, loved going on adventures, and knew how to tell an entertaining story. He always had the ability to make anyone smile.

Additional survivors include his three sons, Daniel (Caitlyn), Nathan (Natalie), and Matthew; grandchildren, Helena, Evelyn, Theodore, and Gwyneth; A brother, Robert Arant of Omaha, NE and sister Rebecca (Stephen) Smith of Wimauma, FL; and many nieces, nephews, and cousins.
