HURON - Rick Jensen, born October 25, 1949, son of Arthur and Jean Jensen, loving brother, father, and grandfather, went home to be with Jesus on February 22, 2021. A lifelong Huron resident, Rick spent his career working at New Departure/Delphi in Sandusky. After retiring from Delphi he spent several years working at Ace Hardware in Huron, where he enjoyed helping fellow Huronites with their home improvement needs.

   Rick, a 1967, graduate of Huron high school, enjoyed spending time with his family camping and riding bikes around Huron. He loved remodeling his homes, wood working, and building decorative ponds in his yard. He was his kids’ biggest fan, whether it was cheerleading, football or basketball, it didn’t matter which sport, he simply loved watching them and supported them in whatever they did.  He is a veteran of the Ohio Army National Guard and served at Kent State during the 1970 riots. He was, also, a member of the Huron AmVets.

   He is survived by his brother Ronald (Darlene) Jensen; sisters, Barb (Lenny) Pack, and Linda (Dave Parker) Geretz; his children, Laura Jensen-Griffith, Cory and Lucas, Lisa Seifert, Sam, Zoe, Lily and Lona and Scott (Beth) Jensen, Carter and Kennedy.

   Rick is preceded in death by his parents Arthur and Jean Jensen.

He was loved by many nieces, nephews and longtime friend Kathleen Wilson, sons Brian and Jason Michel and families. He, also, kept in touch with many high school classmates and friends.
