Jeffrey “Jeff” James Urbach, 57, of Wimbledon, ND, passed away suddenly on Sunday, March 17, 2024. 

Jeff was born on May 24, 1966, to Jack and Doreen (Peterson) Urbach of Lisbon, ND. He excelled in many school athletics growing up, known to many as ‘Sumo’ in wrestling. He had a son named Forrest (Madaus) in 1994, who sadly passed away in 2010. In 2014, Jeff met Tana (formerly Rae) in Valley City, ND, and they were married in 2018. He has two daughters and three grandsons by marriage. 

Jeff pursued his love of the outdoors throughout the years as an avid hunter and fisherman, priding himself on knowing the best locations for success and happily passing that knowledge to his friends and family. 

Jeff is preceded in death by his son Forrest, his father Jack, and his grandparents. 

He is survived by his mother Doreen Thompson; brother Kris (Jennifer) Urbach; niece Kali Urbach; wife, Tana; stepdaughters (Trista and Kayla) and three grandsons. 

There will be no service at this time. There will be a private family gathering at a later date. 

May he rest in peace.
