Randy Reed Obituary
RANDY A. REED age 67, beloved husband for 26 years of Diana (nee McGinley); loving father of Michael and Allison; cherished son of the late Lawrence and Majel (nee Himebaugh); dearest brother of Brian; devoted son-in-law of Thomas and Janice (nee Ross) McGinley; dear brother-in-law of Thomas D. McGinley; treasured cousin and friend of many.
Randy was born December 21, 1956 in Cleveland and was a 1976 graduate of Wickliffe High School. Furthering his education at Case Western Reserve with a private security course, he pursued and obtained his target occupation as a Corporate Security Guard for KeyBank. Randy, a "big teddy bear", was social and very giving of his time. As an avid Browns and Indians fan, he thoroughly enjoyed collecting sports memorabilia. Loving the music of his generation, he could be found listening to the Beatles, Neal Young and Crosby Stills & Nash. His life's devotion was to his family, who meant the world to him. This kind and caring man passed away on March 24, 2024 and will be greatly missed by all who had the honor to know him.
