On August 28, 2022, Randy Lynn Wolfe left us for a better place after a short battle with cancer. Randy was born in Billings, MT, on August 27, 1952, to Michael & June Wolfe.
Randy held many titles over his lifetime, but his most important titles were husband, daddy, dad, grandpa, grumpa(you read that right), boppa, and great grandpa. His family was his most precious asset, and you knew it without a doubt. He was our protector, fixer and was great at sharing his wisdom without making you feel inadequate. He loved spending time with his family even though we probably drove him crazy now and then. He was also a very special and loved uncle; many of his nieces referred to him as their favorite uncle, and he treated many of them just like his own.
Randy was a generous soul who was instant friends with almost everyone he met. He enjoyed his daily coffee breaks with his brother and his many, many lifelong friends. He’d even buy you breakfast if you went along and were hungry. Randy had many friends that he loved very much, and many are like family to all of us.
Once leaving the US Army and college in Sheridan in the 1970s, Randy started his career as a contractor and eventually started a successful decades long excavation business with his brother, Rick. Randy was a hard worker and had several large jobs that included site work on the Libby Dam and Bel Fourche Dam. He was a jack–of–all–trades, and there wasn’t anything he couldn’t figure out how to do which left a pretty high bar for any potential spouses that his daughter had.
His hobbies included treasure hunting at auctions and yard sales with his wife, daughter and grandchildren for the last 25 years. He had a keen eye for finding valuable items and was also a great negotiator to get a fair price. You could bet if he grabbed it, there was something special about it.
Randy is survived by his daughter, Maicie Wolfe (Troy), grand-daughter Sam Eustace (Matthew), grandson Chandler, Worden, great grandson Rhory Muller all of Billings; as well as his three brothers, Ron (Kathy) Wolfe of Red Lodge, Richard Wolfe of Billings, Larry Wolfe (Linda) of Nevada and his dear friend “gal pal” Denise Fiscus of Billings.
He is preceded in death by his wife Sharron Wolfe, brother Clifford Wolfe, nephew Michael Rich, mother June Wolfe and Father Michael Wolfe.
Services will be held September 3rd at 1:00 PM at Smith Funeral Chapel Downtown, 925 South 27th Street, Billings, MT.
Interment will be held privately and will include one last drive around the farm in Huntley with Randy’s ashes as he did for his wife Sharron when she passed.
