Randall E. Peterson Jr., age 74, passed away peacefully on August 30, 2025. Born on July 23, 1951, he was the beloved son of the late Randall Sr. and Melba (née Wellman) Peterson.

Randall was a devoted father to Suzanne, Becky (Jorge), Bonnie (Kile), and Tammy; and a proud grandfather to Ryan, Bailey, Aerabelle, Adelynn, Nicholas, and Christopher. He is also survived by his brother Emmett and sister Donna.

He was preceded in death by his parents, his beloved wife Judy, and his sister Deanna.

Randall found great joy in the simple pleasures of life-spending time fishing, camping under the stars, playing video games, and enjoying the loyal companionship of his dogs. He will be remembered for his humor, his quiet strength, and his deep love for his family.

Per his wishes, no services will be held. His memory will live on in the hearts of those who loved him.

Mid-Wisconsin Cremation Society is assisting the family with arrangements.
