His battle with cancer in the recent months showed his courage in facing life challenges with a smile. Despite the pain, Randy maintained his sense of humor, love for his family and stayed strong until then end.
Randy was preceded in death by his parents Ramon and Shirley Eckhardt. He is survived by his only sister Pamela Porter (Kevin Porter and their children Brandy and Sean).
Randy met the love of his life, Sandy, while attending Greeley Central High School. They started dating in 1970 at the young age of fifteen and never looked back. They built a beautiful life together and were married for 48 years. Randy and Sandy were blessed to have two children, Sara Eckhardt (James Hodges and his children Kiley and Kelsey) and Lacy Dennis (Bruce Dennis and their children Ethan and Jaxon).
Randy was a master electrician by trade and worked in the trade in various facets including commercial construction, facilities maintenance and municipal building inspector. His career was varied until 2020 when he retired. Randy was an avid sports fan who enjoyed being a season ticket holder for both the Broncos and Rockies. Randy loved playing sports with his grandsons and rooting for them at all of their sporting events. Batting practice in the front yard, mini basketball on the back of the front door and throwing the football in the driveway were some of his favorite activities.
A service is scheduled for 10AM on Thursday, June 27, 2024 at Macy Allnutt Funeral located at 6521 W 20th Street, Greeley CO 80634. Attendees are encouraged to wear their favorite sports attire or jersey as a tribute to Randy’s passion.
