Venancio "Venny" Rangel Jr.

Venny was born in Austin, Texas on November 18th, 1994. He graduated from the Rosedale school.

Venny enjoyed bird noises, talking with his father, fluttering his eyelashes, making “moo” noises, and just being surrounded by friends and family in general. He will be remembered for his radiant smile and endless wisdom. Though Venny was never able to utter a word, he was able to teach us various lessons about strength, patience, love, and most importantly perseverance.

His life was certainly challenging, however he never gave up. He kept fighting to be there for those he loved most, especially his mother Lucila.

He is survived by his parents, Lucila and Venancio, his sisters, Sinthia and Samantha, his brother, Ulises, his grandmother, Juana Becerra, his nephews, Xavier and Myles, his niece, Leyla, and an incredibly large and supportive extended family.
