Randy was born in 1952 to Viola and Mr. Sutherland. Donald E. Boyd chose to become Randy’s father a few years later when Donald married Viola. Randy was raised by Donald and Viola with his four siblings: Donald E. Boyd, Jr., Roxanne McFarland, Linda Fauth, and Bonnie Loibl.


He was the husband of the late Mary Ellen for over 4 decades. Randy and Mary had three surviving children: Amy M., Andrew M., and Randy L. His granddog, Aku, provided him considerable comfort and cuddles in his recliner during his final weeks. He is also survived by many nieces and nephews.


Randy worked as a custodian and dishwasher with the Red Lion School district, Jerry's Great Valu, and Lion’s Pride. Randy was very social during his retirement and enjoyed calling people on the phone. He could be found with his girlfriend, Yvonne Cox, at the Red Lion VFW or Double Barrel Roadhouse nearly every weekend. Randy’s favorite hobby was mowing his lawn. He often told Yvonne that once he healed up, he would take her for a ride on his John Deere.
