   Randy worked for Albrecht Oil & Feed in Wall Lake for over twenty years and then at Farner-Bocken in Carroll. He retired in August of 2018. Throughout his life, Randy helped many area farmers in their fields. This was something he always enjoyed doing. After he retired, he began bartending at the Angry Beaver in Maple River, IA.
