Randy Kirchenbauer, 70, passed away on June 9, 2025, with his loving wife by his side.

He is survived by his devoted wife, Kathleen of 51 years; his children, John Kirchenbauer (Maggie) and Cindi Kirchenbauer; his cherished grandchildren, Kaylee Kirchenbauer (Marvin), Zoey Kirchenbauer (Luke), John Kirchenbauer (Tessa), and Hannah Kirchenbauer; and his great-grandchildren, Ella, Collette, Brooklyn, and a sweet baby girl expected October 2025 (Marvin/Kaylee); sister’s Sandy Lisowski, and Rhonda Conroy (Michael).

Randy was the kind of husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, brother and friend you could always count on. He was a man of strength, selflessness, and unwavering loyalty. Whether it was helping a friend, supporting his family, or showing up without being asked, Randy lived a life of helping others—never expecting anything in return.

Randy was retired from A Crano Excavating, a company he was proud to be a part of. Even after his diagnosis, Crano continued to look after Randy and support him and his family—an extraordinary reflection of the kind of company it is and the kind of employee Randy was.

A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date so that family and friends can gather together to share memories and honor Randy’s remarkable life.

The family would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Traditions Hospice for their compassionate care and support during Randy’s final days.

He will be deeply missed and forever remembered in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.
