Obituary

Oscar Eugene Randall, Born  03-24-1931, Died 12-20-2025. He was born in Andrix, Colorado to Almeda Powell Randall and Harold Elbert Randall. He was raised around Meeker, Oklahoma and attended school there. He married Mabel Earlene Raley on March 23, 1952. They had three children and adopted one child. He is survived by two children, six grandchildren, and nine great grandchildren. Preceded in death by his parents, two brothers, three wives, two children, two grandchildren, and one great grandchild.

Oscar was the oldest of three boys who worked hard their whole life. They hauled water from the creek, milked a cow, and tended to many chores. The boys helped their parents work and pay for a one bedroom house.

Oscar, or some knew him as Gene, served the Air Force from December 28, 1950 to October 1 1974. He was stationed at Lakland AFB in Amarillo, TX, and Craig AFB in Alabama. In 1955, he was assigned overseas and served at Bentwater Air Base in England, Sembach Air Base in Germany, and Phalsborg, France. He went TDY to Adana Turkey when the Marines landed in Lebanon in 1958. When he returned to the States he was stationed in Nellis AFB in Nevada. In 1965 he was again sent to Europe, this time to Spangdalem AFB in Germany. In 1966 he went to Wheelus AFB in Libya in  North Africa. He was stationed there during the Seven-Day  war between Egypt and Israel in 1967. After a brief stay at Duluth, Minnesota he was shipped out to Tuy Hoa, Vietnam.  He was there December of 1968 -1969. He returned to the U.S. and was stationed at Tyndall AFB in Panama City, Florida. Then, he transferred to Reese AFB in Texas until retirement in October of 1974. Oscar Randall says, "The Lord and the family went with me to Europe both times and also to Libya".

After his career in the military, he attended OSU and received his teaching degree. He taught wood working, which later became technology education. Oscar taught how to make clocks, tables, shelves, wooden puzzles, and he made a model of the Space Shuttle. He taught in Wewoka, Perkins, Corn, and Kansas City, Kansas before retiring from his second career.

His hobbies were anything he put his hand to do – He would do his best! He was a mechanic, taking care of car maintenance from changing oil, rotating tires, and greasing the axles. He would sew clothing for his children, including a "Music Makers" dress for his youngest daughter and a wedding dress for his oldest daughter. He also would bake pies and cakes for holidays. Oscar loved to garden: plowing, reaping, and canning. He was good at construction: which included plumbing, sheetrocking, paneling, mud and taping, painting, building with two by fours, electrical wiring, and carpeting. Roofing with shingles and his 12 year old girl by his side was done more than once. Oscar lived by the Motto: Jack of all trades, master of none, but often times better than a master of one.

Mostly, Oscar was a man of God. He was full of integrity, intelligence, and ingenuity. He led his family in the words of the Bible. As the family entered a new town, the first order of business was to find a church home, then a home for the family. He was faithful to each wife until her death. He often would testify of God's goodness and grace in his life. Oscar would serve as a deacon, a construction worker, or anything he could put his hand to do in honor of the Lord.
