1981-2024
Randi R. Wickham, 43 of Pittsburg, KS, formally of Fredonia, passed away on Sunday, November 17, 2024, at Mercy Hospital in Joplin. At six months of age, Randi was adopted into the family of Doug and Linda (Wiseman) Ritz.
Randi was raised on the rural farm, she enjoyed helping with raising the cattle, feeding the pigs, and most importantly her horses. Randi loved going with the family horseback, checking on or working the cattle. As soon as Randi was big enough to drive a tractor, she learned her love for raking hay, and just being out in the open country.
Randi was a member of FFA in school, she graduated from Fredonia High School class of 1999. After graduating, Randi worked as a Para for the public schools and later on began working with Autistic adults helping with their daily living activities until her health no longer allowed her to do so. Randi encountered many years of home dialysis, but during the times she felt good, she loved to go fishing or crafting where she made greeting cards.
Randi is survived by:
Husband: Jim Timmons of Pittsburg, KS
Son: Kody Wickham of Pittsburg, KS
Parents: Doug Ritz and wife Linda of rural Fredonia
Sister: Lindsay R. Ritz
Randi was preceded in death by her grandparents.
