Randy grew up in Michigan and lived there until moving to Mountain Home, Arkansas, in 2000, where he worked for Baxter Lab. He greatly enjoyed owning and driving muscle cars and was an avid Chevy fan, an interest he had in common with his father. He took great pride in restoring and cleaning up older cars. He was also a dog lover and was very attached to his beloved dog, Lilly.
Randy was preceded in death by his father, John Perry Markley, and by one sister, Sheila Annette Markley.
He is survived by his daughter, Jennifer Markley and her companion, Andy Bartkowiak, of Attica, Michigan; his mother, Lurlene Markley, of Mountain Home, Arkansas; one grandson, Tyler Bartkowiak, of Attica, Michigan; one sister, Cheri Hill, of Perryville, Arkansas; and other relatives and friends who will miss him very much.
