Randy Ray Groschup was born on September 22, 1964 in Fort Worth, Texas to the late Brenda Kay (Courtney) and William Joseph Groschup. He passed away on May 29, 2024 in Arlington, Texas at the age of 59 years old.
Randy’s heart was as big as the state of Texas, which ironically, is where he was born. He was always quick to make friends no matter where he might have been in his life. As a child he made huge plans with his sister Allison to buy a gigantic house and take in all the stray dogs they could find. No animal or person should ever have to walk this world alone. Randy graduated from Haltom High School in 1982. He was a member of the high school band as a drummer. He continued to play the drums at church, for a short time. In his early teens and twenties, Randy enjoyed working on cars, photography, music and of course hanging out with his friends.
Randy held various positions of employment throughout life. He was quick to learn new things. He was a favorite co-worker and later a much-respected manager at Habitat for Humanity. Family meant the world to him. He took it as his life’s mission to take care of anyone and everyone. Though his health was failing, the small portion of his heart that remained operational continued to pump love and affection to every member of his family. Tabatha, his wife, was “the love of his life”. Randy embraced being a father and he adored being a Papa. His hero in life was his maternal grandfather “Pop”. It is believed that the two of them are having the very best reunion imaginable up in Heaven with his mom, dad and Nanny. He was preceded in death by his parents, Brenda Kay Courtney Groschup and William Joseph Groschup and brother-in-law, David Kissiah.
