In accordance with his wishes, cremation was chosen and will take place at Billings Funeral Home (812 Baldwin St.) and Altera Cremation Services in Elkhart. A memorial service will take place at Bristol United Methodist Church's Family Life Center (101 W Vistula St, Bristol, IN 46507) on Saturday, May 15, 2021, 1:00PM.* Live stream will be available on Billings Funeral Home's website, directly below the obituary. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that you make donations to the Humane Society of Elkhart County.

The phrase, "Everybody loves Randy" was a true statement to anyone who ever met him. Randy was kind, gentle, and his big heart often led him to help anyone in need. Including, of course, any wild animals that wandered onto his property. He was known fondly in the community and by his friends, Randy was often the life of any room he entered.

Randy was a hard worker, working his entire adult life for himself, starting his own business just after graduating high school. He attended Bristol United Methodist church for many years. What Randy enjoyed most was being in the company of his wife, Nora. Together, the two of them were almost inseparable. In his spare time, he enjoyed riding his Harley, working in his yard, or spending time with his father, who was his hero.

Randy will be missed greatly by his loving family and friends.

*We know in this time we all would like to be comforted, but with respect to keeping everyone safe and avoiding spread of Covid we ask that you refrain from hugging, kissing, and shaking hands during the memorial service. A smile or nod of the head to express sympathy will be understood.  We will also practice social distancing and masking during the ceremony.
