Randy Binkley

Randy Binkley

Randy John Binkley, formerly of Hanover passed away surrounded by his family after a long hard fought battle with cancer in Chesterfield, Missouri, USA on Saturday, August 12, 2017. He was 60. 

 

Born in Hanover on Valentine's Day, February 14, 1957 to Les and Eleanor (Schmidt) Binkley of Hanover. Randy was employed with Energizer here in Canada as well as in the U.S. for 37 years. Randy, Becky and family moved to Missouri 12 years ago.

 

Survived by loved and cherished wife Becky Binkley of Chesterfield, Missouri. Devoted and supportive father of Curtis (Julia) and Jana Binkley both of St. Louis, Missouri. Loved brother of Leslie (Kerry) Berbeck of Barrie. Brother in law to Rick (Sandra) Lark of Southampton, and Bill (Jacquie) Lark of Mildmay. Special Uncle of Kara, Jordan, Chloe and Ciara. Predeceased by his dearly loved son Jonathan and parents in law Helen and Willard Lark. 

 

Randy’s cherished dogs, Ali, Mia, and Sydney, provided him with constant companionship and love in the final weeks of his life. Seeing the Pittsburgh Penguins win back to back Stanley Cup Champions (again) was a dream come true. “It’s a great day for hockey” was a quote that Randy lived by.

Randy was a hard, honest worker, who looked forward to going to work every day. He never lost his sense of humour or his appreciation for life and his family, despite his illness. He will be remembered as a loving husband, father, brother, son, and friend to all.

 

Cremation has taken place and a Private Family Graveside Service will be held in the Hanover Cemetery. Family invite friends to a Celebration of Life to honour and share memories on Sunday, October, 1st  2017 at Pike Lake Golf Course, Mount Forest, Ontario, Canada from 1-5 pm.
