Randy Emile Cormier, born January 29, 1968, in Fitchburg, MA, passed away peacefully on March 5, 2026, in Ashburnham, Massachusetts. Randy spent his life in the service of the craft he loved, dedicating many years to metal fabrication as a highly skilled welder before retiring. A lifelong resident of Massachusetts, he was a cherished member of his community and will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
Randy was a man of simple and honest pleasures. He loved the great outdoors and was an avid fisherman and hunter, often spending his time immersed in nature, rod or rifle in hand, and also loved spending time with his niece Katelynn, and at his Dad’s Cottage in Grande-Digue, New Brunswick and hanging out with his cousins. His love for the natural world was only surpassed by his love for his family. He is survived by his brother Allan Cormier, his sisters Bernice Richards and Irene Meyer, and his special niece, Katelynn Meyer, and several other nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents, Gerard and Marie Cormier.
Funeral Services will be private.
