Robert Randle Obituary
Robert was the owner and operator of Metric Fasteners of Charlotte, which he began in his garage, for many years.
Robert is survived by his wife Marilyn Rebecca Deese Randle Thomas, of Davidson, NC, his three sons Glenn A. Randle and his wife Mary Elizabeth "Beth" Vossen of Sugar Grove, NC; Richard "Rich" E. Randle and his wife Lynn of Concord, NC; and Forrest E. Randle of Concord, NC. He is also survived by his three grandchildren, Allyson Randle, Savanna Randle, and John Randle. In addition to his late parents, he was preceded in death by his only brother, George Daniel Randle III in 2011.
Robert served in the Army Reserves during the Vietnam era and was honorably discharged in 1966. He loved all of his family, but especially his grandchildren. Robert had a passion for sailing on Lake Norman, growing vegetables which he often gave to neighbors, and for working in the yards of his lake properties (and could often been seen commuting between them in his trusty yellow golf cart).
A celebration of Robert's life will take place on Sunday, July 29, 2018 at 1:30PM at Hankins and Whittington Funeral Service, 1111 East Blvd, Charlotte, NC 28203, with visitation from 12:30pm to 1:30pm at the funeral home.

God called your name so gently that only you could hear. No one heard the footsteps of the angel drawing near Softly from the shadows, there came a gentle call, you closed your eyes and went to sleep you quietly left us all.
Our sons will surely miss you.

Glenn, Richard and Forrest, I am so sad to learn that your father has passed away. I know that he loved all of you so much. He was a such a smart man and was so kind and sweet to me when I was growing up. I will always remember the rides on his motorcycle when I was a teen...keeping you in my thoughts...

Ann and I always enjoyed our talks with Bob on our daily walks which took us by his home. He was a nice man who always had something funny to say. We have missed him over the past year or so. God bless the family. Bob will be missed.

So sorry for your loss. Jesus wept after the death of his friend Lazarus. John 11:35 We weep along with you. His example was written in the Bible to give us hope.
