Mark Larsen Randall, 68, died Sunday, Aug. 28, 2022, after a courageous battle with cancer.
An avid fisherman who found great joy on the lake in pursuit of the next big Muskie, Mark was a devoted Nebraska Cornhuskers fan until the very end. He is survived by his loving wife, Yvonne Randall; and daughters, Michelle (Brian) Ament and Renee (Jeff Adamek)
Randall; along with grandchildren, William, Margaret, Samuel and Estelle; brother, Robert (Laurie) Randall and Diane (Roger Catlin) Randall; and several nieces and nephews.
Mark was born on Sept. 14, 1953, in Sioux City, Iowa, to the late Robert Randall and Ruth (Larsen) Randall Benson. A 1971 graduate of Benson High School in Omaha and 1983 graduate of the University of
Nebraska at Omaha, he entered the United States Air Force on Sept. 14, 1971. While stationed at Ellsworth Air Force Base in South Dakota, Mark married Yvonne (McWilliams) on April 8, 1972. Just this year, they celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary.
