Randall Paul Kroeger, 56, passed away January 28, 2026. Randy was born December 8, 1969 to Allen and Sheryl (Pugh) Kroeger in Marshalltown, Iowa.
He graduated from Marshalltown High School and joined the U.S. Navy. Randy served his country for 4 years and was deployed to Scotland for part of his service.

Randy was a devoted family man and enjoyed spending time with his children and helping them with their endeavors. He was truly genuine, wholehearted, and a loyal friend who was always willing to help anyone who needed him. He had a terrific laugh, was funny, resourceful, hardworking, and above all a great listener and purveyor of excellent advice.

Randy was a great friend to me. His acid wit always made me laugh (and think). I would have trusted him with my life. I will miss watching Criterion movies with him, playing poker, and his commentary about the world. He was a fine human being and I will miss him very much.
