Lance A. Manschot, 51, passed away unexpectedly on May 30, 2026. Lance was born on January 6, 1975 to Robert Manschot and Jane (Larson) VandenHeuvel.

Lance was known for a lot of things, but the most important was his role as a loving father to his three children. He enjoyed spending his time watching sports, both supporting his kids as well as watching professional sports alongside them. His favorites always included the NFL and Nascar. An admirable quality Lance had was his dedication to help meet his kid's needs, whether that was teaching them how to change car oil or being a listening ear through difficult times. Something that will be missed most is his unique sense of humor. Lance had anything from witty to blunt right up his sleeve, always ready to crack a joke and lighten the mood.

Throughout his career in metal fabrications, he was known for his skills of working with brake press, water jet, and laser cutting equipment. Alongside his children, he will be missed most by his loving furry friend Diesel who he spent endless hours playing with.

Lance is survived by his children; Andi Manschot, Marcus Manschot and Mason Manschot, mother of his children; Barbara Manschot, sisters; Krista (Jon) Sawyer and Miranda Blaiser, a Godson Brandon Sawyer, nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends.
