Randy Rife. 65, of Asheboro, North Carolina passed away at the Bowers Hospice House on February 15, 2019. Born on October 31, 1953 in Beckley, he was the son of Eunice E. Rife and the late Edmond Rife.
Randy is survived by his wife of 49 years Patsy; son, Larry Wayne; three grandchildren, Chris, Cody and John and step grandson, Chris Stover. He is also survived by brothers Rick (Robin) and Thurmond (Buddy) and sister Judy Radford Hatfield (George) as well as sisters-in-law Rhonda (Larry) and Charlotte (Leroy); several great grandchildren and a host of nephews and nieces.
He was preceded in death by his brothers, Larry and Leroy; nephew, Kenneth Radford; niece, Randi Lee Rife and step granddaughter, Lori Craft.
Randy was a long time resident of Asheboro, NC where he served as a superintendent for utility installation for the private sector. He also was a motorcycle enthusiast. But his defining virtue was his deep, abiding faith in God which he was able to share through teaching in the church. Randy's final wish was to return home which he accomplished a few days before his death.
Services will be held at Blue Ridge Funeral Home on February 20 with visitation from 12:00 pm to 2:00 pm and service beginning at 2:00 pm. Pastor Hibbard Hatfield will officiate and family/friends will serve as pallbearers.
In lieu of flowers, please consider a contribution to the Bowers Hospice House where the staff provided wonderful, comforting care.
