Randy Clevenger Obituary
Born in Buena Vista, Virginia, he was the son of the late Charles Elmer Clevenger and Rachel Pauline Clevenger of Enon and biological mother, Jenny Kulp of Buena Vista.
He is survived by his partner of 28 years, Michael Creamer; sisters, Sheila Bowles (Joe), Katie Fleming (Al), Tina Roberts (Ricky) and Kathy Kulp Black (Bob); brothers, Michael Kulp, Don Kulp and Jeff Kulp; nieces, Theresa Fleming-Trexler (Jimmy), Beth Faughn (Rich) and Renee and Alissa Roberts; nephew, Jason Hancock; and several great-nieces and nephews.
Randy graduated from Thomas Dale High School and then worked for nearly 30 years at Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals in Petersburg, Virginia; first as a chemical technician and then as a purchasing agent. He continued his career at WestRock in Hopewell, Virginia, as a Sr. Procurement Specialist, purchasing materials used in the production of paper products.
Early on, Randy sang and played the tenor saxophone and once played Scrooge in a school production of A Christmas Carol and also appeared in Fiddler on the Roof.
In the early 80's, Randy worked with the Hooray for Hopewell Festival and served as its Entertainment Chairman in 1984.
Randy enjoyed spending lots of time with family and friends relaxing in and around his 38-foot RV; he especially enjoyed sitting by the fire after dark with a nice glass of wine and good conversation. Randy also enjoyed many seasons at Busch Gardens and other amusement parks riding the roller coasters (Griffon was his favorite) and sampling the great food (German was his favorite). Randy's great sense of humor will be sorely missed.
A graveside service will be held at Appomattox Cemetery, 703 N. 21st Ave., Hopewell, Va. 23860, on Saturday, January 14, 2023, at 11 a.m. A Celebration of Life will be held immediately following at the Cobblestone Clubhouse, 300 Cobblestone Dr., Hopewell, Va. 23860. Everyone is invited to attend. Online condolences may be conveyed to the family at www.jtmorriss.com.

Randy was the sweetest neighbor I had. The last message from him was to pray for him as he fights this battle. It saddens me to see that he is gone but I am so glad he isn't suffering any longer. Sending love and prayers to the family and his partner. Love, your neighbors Tee and Leona.

Randy and i were half brothers one year he came and stay with us in N.J. and we were both in our early teens and we used to jump off our garage at night to go out and mess around as kids do. One night he decided to try and just go out of the bedroom thru the door and Jenny our Mom was standing on the other side and grabbed him as he was coming out. I think that is scardest I ever saw randy as it was unepexted we both got tended to i might say we stopped doing that but it was a blast to be his brother and i will surely miss him an Honor and a priveldge to have gotton to be a part of his life.

I will miss this wonderful fellow, who was taken from us way, WAY too early; I enjoyed his company whenever we had the opportunity to share time and laughs. He will forever remain in my happier memories. Eternal rest and peace be with him.
