SHARON - Randall "Randy" Osolin passed away on September 25th, 2025 at the age of 74.

He was born on February 6th, 1951 in Sharon, CT to the late Ramon (Sonny) and Barbara (Sandmeyer) Osolin.

He was a dedicated social worker, a natural athlete, a gentle friend of animals, an abiding parish verger, an inveterate reader, and an estimable friend and neighbor. He was a kind-hearted person whose greatest joy was in helping someone in need and sharing his time with his family and good friends.

He was the beloved husband of Karen LaChance Osolin; the loving brother of Bruce Osolin and the late Gail Osolin Leo; the devoted uncle of Kyle and Andrew Osolin and Taylor LaChance; the brother-in-law of Debra LaChance; and the cousin of Brenda Curran, Jay Pickering and Audra Salazar.

To honor Randy's memory, do a good deed for another or send a donation to the Little Guild, 258 Sharon-Goshen Road, West Cornwall, CT 06796.

My deepest sympathies to Karen, Bruce and all of Randy's extended family and friends. We shared some good times, Halloween, bowling tournaments and holidays or just hanging out. Always a kind and caring man, great sense of humor. Thanks for the memories may you rest in peace and comfort.
