Randy was born on October 28, 1943, in Hartsville, Tennessee. He is the son of the late Randolph F. Langford, Sr. and Beatrice Beasley Langford. After graduating from Trousdale County High School, he attended college at the University of Chattanooga and the University of Kentucky, graduating with a degree in business in 1965.

After serving in the Army Randy began his career with Brown & Williamson Tobacco Corporation as a Purchasing Buyer in Louisville, Kentucky. In 1990 Randy was transferred to the Purchasing Department in Macon, Georgia, where he retired with 25 years of service.

Because of Randy’s time in the Army and career with Brown and Williamson he had opportunities to travel and see much of the world but there was never any place like home for Randy. After retiring Randy and his wife, Connie, moved to Milledgeville, Georgia where he settled into a quiet, peaceful and contented life that retirement offers. Randy was a devoted husband, father, grandfather and friend.

Randy is survived by his wife, Connie Kicklighter Langford; his sons, Trey Langford and his wife Monica of Boise Idaho, and John Langford and his wife Christine of Louisville, Kentucky; grandchildren: Tucker, Lincoln, Emma, and Ellie; and special friend and mother of his children, Susan Langford.
