Randy graduated From Milford High School in 1968 and from Nebraska Vocational Technical College in 1970. He opened a photography business, Randy’s Studio, in Milford in June 1970. Randy and Dee Hunter were married on March 21, 1976. Together they had 2 children of whom he was very proud, Denée and Matt.
Randy and Dee took portraits throughout their life together. A true lifelong learner, Randy delighted in learning new photography techniques and Photoshop skills. In his photographic career, he saw the change from primarily black & white to color photography, from strictly indoor to outdoor portraits, and from film to digital photography and Photoshop. Randy loved meeting new people through the Studio, and working with longtime clients was a joy and an honor for him. Although they sold the Studio building in 2021 after over 51 years, Randy continued taking portraits through this year.
Randy is survived by his wife, Dee; their children and spouses, Denée (Paul) Janda of Denver and Matt (Morgan Beach) Erb of Lincoln; his siblings, Lynn (Gloria) Erb, Jeani (Pete) Karubos, Tom (Margaret) Erb, Gordon Erb; sisters-in-law, Rae (Pat) Hunter-Pirtle and Kay (David) Hunter-Chester; uncles Ron (Pam) Erb and Delroy (Alice) Hemsath; numerous beloved nieces and nephews, cousins and friends. Randy was predeceased by his parents and his niece, Stephanie Karubos.
