Randell “Randy” Scott Hershberger, a native of Elkhart and previous resident of Warsaw, passed away on Sunday, July 26, 2020, at the age of 59 surrounded by his loving family.

Randy is survived by his parents; his devoted wife, Lesa (Fritz) Hershberger; four children: Scott (Emily), of Granger; Adam (Hannah), of Bloomington; Chelsy and Hilary, both of Chicago; four grandchildren: Amelia, Eva, Aurora and Mila; and brother, Roger Hershberger, of Elkhart.

He will be deeply missed by his family, friends and those whom were blessed to have crossed his path.
