            <text>Randall “Randy” Gene Hawley, 75, of Pomeroy, Ohio, passed away on November 22, 2025. He was born on December 1, 1949, and spent his life devoted to his family, friends, and community.&#13;
&#13;
Randall is survived by his loving wife of 55 years, Darla Hawley, and their sons Randy (Regina) Hawley and Shawn (Heather) Hawley. He was a proud grandfather to Hannah, Abbie, Devon, Brody, Mallory Hawley, and Luke and CJ Willis, and a cherished great-grandfather to Kai and Phoebe Hawley.&#13;

His steady presence, encouragement, and gentle humor will be remembered by all who knew him.&#13;
