Randy Osborn Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Maryland Cremation Services on Mar. 30, 2026.
Dear Family and Friends,

It is with a heavy heart that I announce the passing of Randy Earl Osborn, Sr., age 68, of Severn, Maryland, on March 27, 2026, following a recent diagnosis of pneumonia.

Randy was born on March 7, 1958, in Altoona, Pennsylvania, to the late David Ralph Osborn and Mary Lou Richards. A skilled technician and trainer, he dedicated his professional career to his work as a Research Facility Manager.

Randy found great joy in life's simple pleasures: laughing and joking, watching the Pittsburgh Steelers, relaxing in his favorite chair with a good book, listening to music, and solving strategy games.

He is survived by his wife and best friend of 25 years, Patti; his son, Randy E. Osborn, Jr.; his daughter, Kristina (Rich) Harris; and his sister, Diane (Chuck) Fritter. He was a proud grandfather to Kelley, Tyler, and Nathan, and leaves behind many beloved nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles and friends.

Randy was deeply loved by many and will be dearly missed. Feel free to share your favorite memory on the Tribute Wall.

In keeping with Randy's wishes, there will be no formal service. Those who wish to honor his memory please consider planting a tree or making a donation to the charity of your choice.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
