Randy L. Randol

Randy L. Randol, 56, of Kendallville, IN, passed away peacefully and comfortably on August 30, 2016 at his home surrounded by family in LaGrange, IN. He was born on May 15, 1960 in Shelby, MI to Dick Lee and Loretta Fay (Baxter) Randol. He married Michelle Crawford on October 2, 1992 in LaGrange County, IN. She has preceded him in death on May 20, 2014.

Randy was diagnosed with a very rare cancer that affected his heart in November of 2014. At that time, he was given six to twelve months to live out his life. He managed to beat that time frame by a year because he lived by his own motto of “Don’t count the days, make the days count”.

He enjoyed making others laugh with his storytelling and one of a kind pranks. It never lost his sense of humor no matter what the situation was. When Randy would walk in to a room, you knew you could always count on him to give you a really good laugh. He also enjoyed going on long motorcycle rides. He enjoyed sitting outside and watching his hummingbirds come and go every year. Randy was very well known for taking on random projects. You never knew what he was going to come up with next. He was a man of mischief at any given moment, yet still liked by those who came in to his life. Randy made an impact on everyone’s life and he will be missed very much.

He is survived by his three Daughters: Cassandra Ann Crawford of Kendallville, Heather Lynnette Crawford of Ashley, IN and Tasha Nicole Crawford of LaGrange; two Sons: Ryan Scott Randol of Kendallville and Ricky Lee Randol of LaGrange. Six Grandchildren survive: Randy is also survived by his mother Loretta Fay (Baxter) Randol of LaGrange, IN and seven brothers; Frank, Doyle, Lee Jay, Chad, Colby, Chuck and Doug Randol, and two sisters; Tanya Ringler and Becky Stoudt.

Randy is preceded in death by his father, Dick Randol; and nephew, Travis Randol.

Her family has honored her request for no formal services. A cremation committal will take place at Legacy Cremation & Remembrance Center. A Celebration of Randy’s life will take place at a later date for his family.
