Randall Alcorn Obituary

Randall "Randy" Hugh Alcorn

Randall "Randy" Hugh Alcorn was born on March 18, 1960 in Monroe, MI. He was the loving and devoted son of J. Houston and Ruby Jean (Roberts) Alcorn. Randy unexpectedly passed from this life on Thursday, January 17, 2019.

Randy grew up in Temperance, MI. He graduated from Bedford High School in 1978. He married his wife Brenda in a beautiful outdoor ceremony on July 6, 1991. They built their home in Ida, MI. Together they raised their two children, Justin Dow and Ashley Leann Alcorn. He was employed by the Jeep Corp. for 30 years retiring in 2009. He then worked in the trades, installing carpets, flooring and home remodeling.

Randy lived his life to the fullest. His love for adventure took him all over the country. He was an avid boater, water skier and snow skier. He could often be found cruising Lake Erie on his "Stinger" boat or flying down the steepest ski slopes. His most recent adventure took him on a memorable trip to ski with his wife and children in Colorado. His love of adventure was only surpassed by his love for his family.

His parents, Houston and Jean Alcorn, lovingly survive Randall. His wife of 28 years Brenda, his children Justin and Ashley. He will be deeply missed by his sisters, Rhonda (Doug) Dressel, Debbie (Tim) Wolf, Barbara (Tom) Peckham. His nieces and nephews, Randi (Bill) Scovell, Brandon (Krista) Dressel, Rebecca (Ryan) Porter, Kaitlin (Michael) Ellerbrock, Kelsey Peckham and Austin Wolf. Also his great nieces and nephews whom he adored, Connor, Brynn, Jacob, Carson, Ellie, Kendall and Henry.

Visitation will be held on Thursday, January 24, 2019 from 4:00 p.m. until 8:00 p.m. in the Urbanski's Bedford Funeral Chapel 8300 Lewis Ave. Temperance, MI. where the funeral service will be held on Friday, January 25, 2019 at 1:00 p.m. Cremation will follow.

Randall was a gentle man. A kind man. A man who craved adventure. A man who loved to laugh and enjoyed having fun. He was a loyal friend and would do anything for them. Randall loved all of his family beyond words. Randall had faith and believed in God. You KNOW that he is now in the arms of our Lord. You will miss him every day. But may happy memories and the reassurance of knowing we will see him in heaven, comfort you through the days ahead. Love and hugs to all of you.
