RANDY ICEMAN Obituary

Randy Edwin Iceman

66, of Massillon, went Home to be with the Lord on August 11, 2020, following a sudden illness. He was born on September 13, 1953 to the late Mac and Twilamaye (Maurer) Iceman; and was a graduate of Perry High School in Massillon. His love for the game of golf led him to become a PGA Golf Professional. He was active in the Northern Ohio Section for almost 40 years, where he was able to develop and share his passion for the Rules of Golf. Randy began his career as an assistant golf professional at Arrowhead Country Club in North Canton. He moved on to become the Head Golf Professional at Coshocton Town and Country Club, and for the last nine years, was an assistant golf professional at Firestone Public Golf Course. He had the honor of being inducted into the Northern Ohio PGA Hall of Fame in 2018, and a year later won the prestigious Horton Smith Award. Over the years, he was a respected mentor for many of his employees and junior golfers.

Randy was a loving husband to his wife of 39 years Catherine (Ingram) and devoted father to his son, Matthew and his wife, Amy, of whom he was very proud. His grandchildren, Ella and Ethan were the apples of his eye. He will be missed beyond words. In addition to his immediate family, Randy is survived by his twin brother, Rodney and his wife, Sharon; nieces, Lisa Iceman (Jennifer Drost) and Julie (Josh) Hamrick and their daughter Kate; sisters-in-law, Becky Brunotte and Laurie (Alan) Warnock, and brother-in-law, Robert (Aileen) Ingram, and their children and grandchildren. He is also survived by many cousins.

Calling hours will be Sunday from 3-5 p.m., at the Reed Funeral Home North Canton Chapel, with Covid-19 restrictions and social distancing enforced. Funeral services will be private for the family, and burial will be at Sunset Hills Burial Park. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the First Tee of Canton, 2525 25th St. NE, Canton, OH 44705 or to a charity of your choice.

My husband had a few golf lessons from Randy at Firestone and really liked his patience, instruction, and kindness which helped him with his golf game. He liked him so much that last Christmas he gave me a gift certificate to have a lesson from Randy. Our sincere sympathies to family and friends.

Randy was a gentle man, a true gentleman and good friend! The world will miss him! He was so much a part of Paul’s teenage and young adulthood. He was even in our wedding! He shared his love of golf with us in such encouraging ways and he lived out his love for Christ before us all. Cathy came to Christ about the same time I (Yvonne) did, and I know her faith will comfort and sustain her! How did we all lose touch over the years? We’re it not for our hope and certainty of heaven, we would indeed grieve mightily over those wasted years of connection here on earth! Much love and many prayers for your comfort!

Randy was a great boss, friend, and golf instructor. On his day off, Randy devoted time to help young golfers understand the rules of golf in order to improve their game. I will always remember Randy as a fair, honest, man who gave himself fully to everyone he met. See you in Heaven Randy!!

I was deeply shock at see where Randy passed away. He was one of the best friends a person could have. I will always remember the fun we had at church. Cathy, my heart goes out to you and Matt. May God comfort you in this very difficult time. We love you and will be praying for you. May He comfort you in the way that only He can.
