It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Randall J. Slabaugh, affectionately known as Randy, at the age of 64, of Garrettsville, OH, on November 30, 2024.
Born in Ravenna, Ohio, to Cecil and Alice "Louise" (nee Rohrbaugh) Slabaugh, Randy grew up in Windham and remained a lifelong resident of the area. He worked for over 30 years at Vintage Wine Distributors in Solon, Ohio, where he served as a warehouse manager until his early retirement in 2020.
He leaves behind a loving family who will miss him dearly: his son, Trenton Slabaugh of Cuyahoga Falls, OH; his daughter, Rachel ( nee Perrine) Speicher, and his cherished granddaughter, Jennings Withrow, both of Champion, OH; his sister, Deborah DeWitt of Maryland; and his brothers, Michael and Ricky Slabaugh, both of Twinsburg, OH.
Randy was preceded in death by his parents and his stepfather, Ralph Wigley.

A celebration of his life will be planned at a later date, where family and friends will gather to honor his memory. Please periodically check his obituary at www.carlsonfuneralhomes.com for updates.
