She was preceded in death by her mother, Mennie (Beene) Jones; her stepfather, A. Chester Hines; great-nephew Trayveon Hines; and her very best friend, Denise Brondino.

Ran dedicated her life to youth and church, finding deep purpose and lifelong friendships through her work at Zablocki Elementary School in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. She was known for her compassion, ministry of music, love for God, sense of humor, and the joy she brought into the lives of those she loved.

Her spirit of kindness, generosity, and laughter touched everyone around her. Upon retiring from the Milwaukee Public School System, Ran relocated to North Carolina, where she continued to connect with others through faith, music, and love.
