Randall Redden, age 75, passed away on May 30, 2025, in St. Mary's, Georgia.

He was born on March 17, 1950, in LaGrange, Georgia. He is survived by his loving wife of 16 years, Juane Redden; his daughter, Crissy Redden; and granddaughters, Ivy Redden and Taylor Redden. He is also survived by his stepchildren: Carrie and Paul Booher (grandchildren: Trey and Caroline Booher), Robert and Rebecca Colvin (grandchild: Madison Colvin), James Stubbs, and Julie and Sean Huckeba (grandchildren: Elizabeth and Savannah Huckeba). He is also survived by his sister, Trudy Walker, and his brothers, David Redden and Mark Redden. He was preceded in death by his brothers, Tracy Redden and Johnnie Redden, as well as his former wife, Marsha Redden.

Randy was a legend in the field of law enforcement, proudly serving the communities of Troup County, Coweta County, and Camden County through his work in various sheriffs' offices. He retired following a work-related injury, leaving behind a legacy of commitment, service, and integrity. Though he grew up in LaGrange, Randy spent his childhood summers in St. Mary's with his Uncle Pete Redden, learning to appreciate the region's rich wildlife through hunting and fishing. His love for coastal Georgia never waned. In retirement, Randy found joy in being a regular crew member on the Cumberland Queen ferry, which transports visitors and residents between St. Mary's and Cumberland Island each day. Always eager to share his knowledge and passion, he took pride in teaching others about the area's unique ecosystem. Affectionately known as "Captain Randy" by his stepchildren and grandchildren, he created countless cherished memories on the water, fishing and boating around Cumberland Island. He also enjoyed golfing weekly with a loyal group of friends, treasuring their companionship as much as the game itself. He also had a deep love for his many dogs over the years, who were constant companions and a source of great joy. Randy loved making everyone laugh and rarely missed a chance to tease someone into a smile. He was kind, generous, and cantankerous—a combination that made him unforgettable to all who knew him.
