Floyd Rodale Lang

November 4, 1974 — February 27, 2022

On Sunday February 27th, 2022, Floyd Rodale Lang, departed this life at the age of 47 years, 3 months and 23 days in Jersey City, N.J.
A man as tough and as nurturing as the ground he walked, eventually setting roots in Clifton, TN. Born to Fred Lang and Robin (Hancock) Lang on November 4th 1974 in Hillsboro, Illinois. Floyd spent much of his childhood alongside his grandmother Valeria Hancock and grandfather, Ross Hancock, from whom he drew much inspiration as to the person he would become; though he learned his patience and humor from Jessie Boyd, the man his mother later married and spent the rest of her life with.
On November 24th, 1998, he married Gloria Jean (Tito) Lang, the love of his life for whom he would capture the Heaven and Stars. With her by his side, they would go on to raise 6 children.
As his children grew, he found time after his job to develop his passions of watching the wildlife from the back porch and passing the evening with backyard family activities. He worked 14 years for CCA South Central, 12 years for Wayne County Highway Department, and his final, most enjoyable years, driving for Big M Transportation, with his Queen by his side in the passenger seat. Floyd is survived by an array of loving family. His six children; Angelo Deltedesco; Michael, Gabriel, and Dylan Lang; Chrissie Teague (husband Shawn Teague); Jessica Deltedesco. His eight grandchildren: Clara Theis; Angelo Deltedesco III; Gavin, Connor, Gamble and Logan Teague; Bentley, Weston, and Lexie Deltedesco. His brother, Josh Lang (wife Brooke Lang); with many more aunts, uncles, and cousins. All with treasured memories of a simple loving man.
