Randy Endecott

Randy Endecott, AIA, NCARB, age 66, passed away on November 25, 2015 in Kansas City, Missouri. Randy grew up on the family farm in Drexel, Missouri causing mayhem alongside his three younger brothers while learning to fix anything and everything from his father, Raynard Endecott who has preceded him in death.

An avid car guy, golfer and wise-cracker who was loved by many; Randy studied architecture at Kansas State University and even embraced his Jayhawk friends and family. He taught his daughters how to change a tire before they could see over the steering wheel and his son how to operate power tools before he was strong enough to even hold them. He traveled the world with his wife and love, Kathy, where they experienced many cultures together.

Randy was a lifelong architect with a career spanning 40 years at Kansas City firms, BNIM, Populous and most recently Burns & McDonnell. Randy was an active member of AIA Kansas City and served on the KC City Planning Commission.

He is survived by his mother Helen Endecott, his spouse Kathy Anderson, daughters Tara Fitzgerald and Keely Daly (Brendan) and son Chad Anderson (Megan). Grandchildren and future pro golfers: Colin, Delaney, Liam, Ciara and Avelin. Brothers Steve (Kay), Walt (Patti) and Phil (Linda) and several nieces and nephews.

Memorial contributions may be made in memory of Randall Endecott to the Kansas State University Foundation for the College of Architecture, Planning & Design.
