Randy Escobedo, born Feb. 9, 1963, passed peacefully while surrounded by his family on Aug. 8, 2018 at Banner Desert Hospital in Mesa.
Born and raised in Miami, Randy dedicated his life to his family and the education and coaching of young people. He undoubtedly made a positive impact on the lives of hundreds of youths during his 30-plus years of experience.
Randy had a passion for life and a deep love of his family, sports, music and nature.
He is survived by his brother Bobby Escobedo, his three children, Jason Escobedo, Kasey Jankowski and her two sons Joshua and Jackson (along with a third on the way); Paige Escobedo and her children Aria and Thomas, Cindy Cothrun; son-in-law Matt Jankowski; daughter-in-law Lauren Siersma and many, many other friends and relatives.
Always one to look at the positives of life, Randy would want us to cherish the memories with him and continue on with love and happiness in our hearts.
Arrangements are tentatively scheduled for Saturday, Aug. 18 at Lamont Mortuary of Globe. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that any donations be made to the Cobre Valley Youth Center.
Assisting the family; Lamont Mortuary of Globe.
