Spr C. Randall "Randy" Ervin (Ret’d)
-
We regret to advise of the death of Sapper C. Randall "Randy" Ervin (Ret’d) of Little Harbour NS, on 26 August 2023 at age 80.
Born in New Glasgow NS, Randy joined the Royal Canadian Engineers at age 18 and travelled to British Columbia for his sapper training at the Royal Canadian School of Military Engineering in Chilliwack. He made many friends during his 12 years in the Canadian Forces and especially enjoyed his time in Recruit Squadron at RCSME.
After retiring from the Canadian Forces, Randy worked for many years as a heavy-duty mechanic throughout Pictou County. He was a jack of all trades and could put his hand to anything. Randy had many adventures in his antique 1956 yellow Mercury truck.
The family will hold a Celebration of Life ceremony on Wednesday, 30 August 2023, at the Little Harbour Fire Department [8328 Pictou Landing Road, Trenton, NS] between 2 and 4:00 PM. Around 3:30 PM, you can share your memories of Randy. Online condolences can be sent to the funeral home.
