Born on September 26, 1952, in Hot Springs, South Dakota, Randy was the beloved son of the late Donald and Frieda Hall of Fort Collins, Colorado, and the loving brother to his sister, Lanae Raymond, of Loveland, Colorado.
Randy grew up in South Dakota, Iowa, Nebraska, and Colorado, as his parents operated small town cafés throughout the Midwest. A graduate of Fort Collins High School, Randy was known for his strong work ethic, easy going charm, and gentle humor. In his younger years, he embarked on many memorable adventures, including participating in a several-month sheep drive through Wyoming’s rugged landscapes that covered hundreds of miles between highlands and lowlands—a journey that reflected his quiet determination. His love of camaraderie and competition found expression in billiards and bowling, where he played on several local northern Colorado teams.
Professionally, Randy dedicated much of his career to support services for local colleges, including working for 12 years at Colorado State University in the Game Room, where he supported club sports teams and accompanied the billiards and bowling teams on their tournament travels across the west and Midwest regions. Later, he served for over two decades as a Sales Assistant and later, Assistant Manager, at the Front Range Community College Bookstore. Randy especially enjoyed operating multiple successful flea market booths throughout Colorado and Wyoming in his free time - a pursuit that perfectly suited his passion for making deals and connecting with people.
After retirement, Randy embarked on more memorable adventures, this time accompanying his widowed sister on numerous road trips to California beaches, Arizona and Nevada deserts, and his home state’s natural wonders. As advancing PD limited the travel, Randy’s social nature shifted to his fellow care facility residents in fellowship, bingo, crafts, and re-selling chocolate snacks his clueless sister provided.
Randy was known for his gentle, caring nature and his ability to make friends wherever he went. He will be remembered as soft-spoken, funny, and always a gentleman—with a sweet disposition and a caring spirit. He loved flea markets, garage sales, good conversation, the simple pleasures of everyday life, and found joy in making deals and selling merchandise. Above all, Randy was a devoted son who deeply loved spending time with his parents—especially his dad—sharing laughter and companionship on countless outings together to stock flea market treasures, and filling their days with laughter and care. His gentle presence, warmth and thoughtful nature will be dearly missed by all who were lucky enough to know him.
In lieu of a service, Randy would appreciate you asking a friend, family, or stranger to sit with you and have breakfast together. A very joyful ‘food’ day for him would be a breakfast burrito at The Breakfast Club, a scramble and links mid-day at Perkins, and evening pancakes at the Ever Open. May you enjoy your meal with a kind thought and remembrance of him.
