Randy Albert WOODS
1957-2021
Randy passed away at his home on Melbourne Ridge on December 28, 2021. He had many illnesses during his 64 years and his family now takes comfort that he is dwelling in his heavenly home.
Randy was born February 23, 1957. He grew up at his home on the Ridge enjoying the country life -playing hockey on the pond with his siblings, sledding, fishing, bike riding and playing baseball in the backyard. He graduated from Richmond Regional High School Class of 1975, where he had many close friends. That is also where he picked up the nickname Mouse. He spent summers driving haul trucks at the Asbestos mine. Also, he worked at the Vieux Clocher in Kingsbury then later moved to Montreal to work at the Montreal Association for the Blind as a security guard.
Randy was a kind and gentle man who saw the good in everyone. He cared deeply for his family. He helped Dad with many projects including maintaining several cemeteries in the area. With love and patience, he took care of Mom in her later years. Anyone who knew him would agree that he had a witty sense of humor and could always make you laugh! Being an avid reader, Randy loved getting lost in a good book. Other favorite pastimes were making puzzles, board games, gardening and being challenged to a competitive game of cribbage. He also enjoyed the company of his pets.
Gone before him are his father Raymond Woods and his mother and best friend Elsie Booth Woods. Randy will be greatly missed by his two brothers Brian and Larry (Linda), his two sisters Donna (Kurt) and Kimberley (Chris), a niece Alyssa (Robert), two nephews Chad (Melissa) and Tom (Jessica), great-niece Emily, great-nephews Nathaniel and Connor and good friend Sylvia Pike.
