Jeffrey Allen Frank, 63, of Cedar Falls, passed away unexpectedly at home. He was born May 13, 1959, in
Harlan, Iowa, son of Robert & Dorothy (Rasmusen) Frank. Jeff graduated from the Malcolm Price Lab School (NU High) with the Class of 1977. He then attended the University of Northern Iowa receiving a Bachelor of Arts in Community Health Education in 1983. Jeff was a Licensed Massage Therapist working for Cedar Falls Massage Therapy and Healing Hands Massage Therapy in Evansdale, eventually, going into private practice before officially retiring in 2018 after 35 years of work.
Jeff was passionate about UNI sports and attended games often. Jeff enjoyed spending time at the library, and binge-watching Netflix and classic movies. Both before and after his retirement, Jeff was the family massage therapist. Even the dogs got massages, which earned their undying loyalty and affection. After their mother's death earlier in the year, Jeff was preparing to move to Michigan to be with family. His friends and family miss him terribly.
Jeff was preceded in death by his father, Robert Frank in 1990 and his mother, Dorothy Frank in 2022. He is survived by his brother, Kent (Michelle Visser) Frank of Commerce Township, Michigan; nephew, Henry (Sarah Vaughn) Frank of
San Diego, California; nieces, Rebecca (Graham Hukill) of
Knoxville, Tennessee and Kayla (Rick Vega) of
Livermore, California; four grandnephews: Noe, Teagan, Andrew and Myles; and grandniece, Cassette.
It was Jeff's request that no services be held in his memory. Condolences can be left at www.DahlFuneralHome and Memorials may be directed to his family via the funeral home.
