The Funeral Service for Johnny will be at 11:00 am on Saturday, March 1, 2025, at Word of Life Church with Pastor Terry Frost officiating.

Johnny was born August 24, 1955, in Springhill, LA, the son of Willie and Leona (Lawson) Randle. He was united in marriage to Terri Ann Hoffman on October 20, 1990 in Dallas, TX. She preceded him in death on May 19, 2022. He later married Gloria Grissom on October 11, 2024, in Dubuque, IA.

Johnny was the Pastor of Walk by Faith Ministry and was truly a faith filled man. He loved the word of God, he was known as “the Word man.” Johnny led a lot of people to Christ and nobody loved God more than him. A couple of his favorite sayings were, “walk by faith and not by sight,” “it will work out, it always does,” and “always walk in love.” Johnny also found solace when he was fishing in the great outdoors, lighting up the grill, and loved cooking soul food.

Survivors include his wife, Gloria Randle of Epworth, IA; his five daughters, Cassandra (Andre) Davis of Leander, TX; Stella (Terrell) Fulton of Magnolia, AR; Kalinda (Quanerick) Swim of Dubuque; Hannah (Francis Thompson) Randle of Epworth; and Haley (Cody Jurisic) Randle of Epworth; 17 grandchildren, Jalen, Kennedy, Miles, Jeremy, Co’Asia, Stephon, Trina, Nell, Terrell II, Britany, Brittany, Brandee, Shakia, Corey, Taylor, Tatum, and Silas; 10 great-grandchildren; three siblings, Albert (Dorothy) Randle, Willie B. (Charles Lewis) Randle, and Donald (Annette) Randle; and many nieces and nephews.

Johnny was preceded in death by his parents; first wife, Terri; and four siblings, Lee Jewel Randle, Willie Arthur Randle, Alfred Randle, and Glendale Randle.

Hoffmann Schneider & Kitchen Funeral Home and Crematory is in care of the arrangements.
