Randle Scheets, the son of Benny and Geneva (Reed) Scheets, was born on Dec. 3, 1964, at Cabool, Missouri, and went home to meet Jesus from Texas County Memorial Hospital on April 17, 2026.
Randy was united in marriage to Vonda Coble on Oct. 6, 1983. To this union, two children were born: Cody Randle Scheets and Aaron Lee Scheets. He loved his family and was a wonderful husband and father.
Randy was a child of God first. He loved the Lord with passion. He served the Lord by providing for his family through different vocations: Pastor, carpenter, farmer and truck driver, usually at the same time. Randy took pride in a job well done. He could fix anything. If it needed to be done, he would figure out what the problem was, along with the solution to make it happen. Randy had endurance. He loved blessing people, whether he knew them or not. Randy enjoyed sharing the outdoors with his family, hiking, fishing, hunting, horseback riding, having snowball fights and sledding. He was always up for an adventure.
Randy felt a deep love for people. He never met a stranger. He shared, worked, ministered and witnessed whenever he could. He loved serving the Heartland Cowboys for Christ, where he made many wonderful lifelong friends.
He was preceded in death by grandparents, Randle and Piney (Sirdoreus) Scheets, and Elmer Reed and Inda (Freeman-Reed) Dobson; aunts, Ginger Kennedy and Delma Preissle; uncles, Dallas Reed, J.W. Scheets, Billy Scheets and Virgil Scheets; and Crystal Lynn Scheets (unborn child).
He is survived by his wife, Vonda Scheets; his son, Cody and his wife Tara, their children Colton, Allie and Carson; son, Aaron and his wife Mary, their children, Leah, Abigale Inda and Gabriella; his parents, Benny and Geneva Scheets; his siblings, Ron Scheets and his wife Steph, Becky Utley and her husband Eric, Rebena Atkinson and her husband Andrew along with aunts, Patty Reed, Sharrion Vandivort and Janice Duke; uncles, Jr. Reed and Billy Reed as well as a host of nieces and nephews, other family members and friends.
