Randy Smith

Randy J. Smith, 68, of Quincy, Indiana, passed away on July 24, 2023. Randy was born on July 2, 1955, in Indianapolis, Indiana, to Edward and Gertrude (Weilhammer) Smith. He was a retired truck driver and a 1973 graduate of Speedway High School.

Randy was a loving and caring individual who deeply cherished his family. He had a special knack for striking up conversations with anyone he met, never knowing a stranger. His generosity and kindness were well-known, and he always went out of his way to help others.

In his free time, Randy enjoyed working on his property and riding his John Deere tractor. Randy had a passion for racing and eagerly supported his son, Dan and granddaughter, Schylar, at the Paragon Speedway. Randy was looking forward to next year when his granddaughter Layla would join them on the track. He took pleasure in teaching Schylar and Layla valuable life lessons, always sharing his wisdom with a touch of his signature "his way or the highway" style.

Randy is survived by his loving spouse, Rhonda (Adkins) Smith; his son, Daniel Joseph Smith (Jessica); his granddaughters, Schylar and Layla Smith; his brothers, Gary Smith (Wanda) and Kurt Smith (Jan); his sisters, Elaine O'Neal and Janet Sellmeyer, and his best friend, Maggie, their loyal German Shepherd. He was preceded in death by his parents and his sister, Annette Moore.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, August 12, 2023, beginning at 2:00 pm, at the Life Line Baptist Church Life Center, located at 13387 N Slideoff Road, Camby, Indiana 46113. Food will be served.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that contributions be made to your local organ donation center in Randy's honor. Randy was the lucky recipient of a liver 12 years ago and believed strongly in the gift of life.

Randy will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all those who had the pleasure of knowing him. His loving spirit, warm personality, and dedication to his family will forever be remembered.
