Randy Dale Parish

With heavy hearts, we announce that Randy Dale Parish, born October 5, 1952, in Paso Robles, California, went to be with the Lord on March 19, 2026, surrounded by his family.

Randy went to Morro Bay High and graduated from Oak Hills High Atascadero in 1973. He dedicated 25 years to California Men’s Colony and was the proud owner of Safe and Sure Pest Control since 1985. A devoted father, Randy raised his daughters, Mandy and Justina as a single parent. In 1997 he married Laura and together they built a loving blended family, welcoming her children as his own.

Randy was the rock of his family, where he found his greatest joy. He loved barbecuing, camping, fishing, hunting, riding his Harley, attending Vintage Church and watching his grandchildren play their sports games. He also enjoyed his many friends, rainy days, ice-cold beer, good steak, fried bologna sandwiches and always saved room for dessert. Known for his humor and kind heart, he was loyal, strong and deeply devoted.

Randy is survived by his mother, Maxine Davis; sisters, Sherry Preston (Mark) and Johnnie Ramos (Amadeo), Clarinda Galletta (Ace); brothers, Terry Christian, Michael (Jose) and Dallas (Nicole) Parish; his wife, Laura Parish; children, Mandy Parish Byler (Corey), Justina Van Eck (Jason), Christopher Dierks (Cheri), Michelle Swartzbaugh, Emily French, and Melinda Corral (Chris); grandchildren, Richard, Rustin and Luke Biddle, Spencer (Keara) and Sophia Swartzbaugh, Jack French, Dakota and Savanah Van Eck, Miranda Sisemore, Kannon, Gilan and Chanda Dierks, great grandchildren Bentley Biddle and Adam Swartzbaugh who brought him immense pride and joy as well as many nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his father, Milton Parish; grandparents Clarence and Bernice Davis.

Randy’s legacy of faith, integrity, love and laughter will live on in all who knew him.
