Randall "Randy" Katz, 56 of Albion, passed away on July 22, 2025, at Parkview Regional Medical Center.
He was born on October 11, 1968, in Kendallville to Mike and Bert (Winebrenner) Katz. He spent his formative years in Rural Albion and graduated from Central Noble High School.
A long-time resident of Albion, Randall was a skilled fabricator and welder, employed at Dial-X for 16 years. He was well-known for his love of riding Harley-Davidson Motorcycles, but what defined him most was his innate desire to help others; he found great satisfaction in being of service to those around him.
In addition to his father, Mike (Joni) Katz, he is also survived by his siblings, Renee (Rex) Ott, Misty (Nate) Lewis, and Trent Katz; his nieces, Brandi Ott and Stana Butler; a nephew, Skyler Ott; his great-nephews, Abrum Ott and Zayden Marshall.
He was preceded in death by his mother, Bert Katz.
Memorials can be directed to Central Noble LifeWise or Noble Township 4-H.
Randy will be buried in the Merriam Christian Chapel.
