James D. Randolph

“Fuzzy”

July 16, 1928 - November 10, 2016

Fuzzy died peacefully on November 10, 2016 at home surrounded by his family. He earned his undergraduate degree from Waynesburg College in education and a masters degree from WVU in music. He served in the Korean war. Fuzzy was a professor of music and the curator of the Paul R. Stewart Museum at Waynesburg University for most of his life. His interests were wide ranging: wood working, jewelry making, fishing and archaeology. Registering numerous archeological sites with the state, Fuzzy was the recipient of the “Archey Award” from the Society of Pennsylvania Archeology for his work in the science. Music was also a key interest for Fuzzy, with bagpipes and harmonica being some of his favorite instruments. Waynesburg University named the James D. Randolph Kiltie Band in his honor and for his affection for the bagpipes. He is survived by his son Bruce (Cathy) and grandsons Aaron and Daniel, his son Todd and grandson David. He was preceded in death by his wife Carol. One of Fuzzy’s greatest loves and life work was being a historian and the curator of the Waynesburg University Museum. Giving tours to university visitors, young and old, gave him great joy. His fervent wish was for this legacy to live on and the museum continue to thrive when he was gone. A memorial service will be held at Waynesburg University the date to be announced.
