Randall Craig Kaminsky

Kaminsky, Randall Craig age 73, passed away peacefully on August 24, 2024, after a short and courageous battle with a rare form of cancer. Born in St. Paul on December 3, he was preceded in death by parents Beverly and Sherman Kaminsky. Survived by devoted wife Raleigh of 52 years who he first met at a high school BBYO dance and then famously reconnected and "met his spouse at the MN Hillel House," and loving sons and wives Andy (Katy) and Scott (Melissa). Adored by grandsons Cohen and Asher and granddaughter Janie. He will be missed by sister Robin Wild and brother and wife Howard and Marlee Kaminsky; brother-in-law and sister-in-law Jack and Nettie Nabedrick; brother-in-law Bruce Ressen; nieces and nephews; special cousins Ron and Marthy Smoliak; and many loving lifelong friends. Randy graduated from Highland Pk Sr. High and the University of Minnesota. He was extremely proud of his sons and their accomplishments. Randy coached the boys' sports teams, and the family had fun together on trips and adventures. Randy was a successful businessman who traveled the world. He enjoyed an eclectic career in retail management, product development and procurement, and merchandising for major Twin Cities companies. A talented musician, Randy played the drums and loved to rock on. The oldies and country music were his genres. Neil Young was his musical muse and idol. An impeccable dresser, Randy's clothes were always coordinated with matching fun socks and a colorful Swatch watch. An avid golfer, he was the best dressed man on the golf course. His motto was "If you can't play well, you can at least look good." He finally made a hole-in-one at Hunters Ridge in Bonita Springs, where he and Raleigh enjoyed many years of golf, social events, and making new friends. Randy was a sports guy. In his sports memorabilia work he met many legends of baseball. He loved the Gophers and Vikings, but the Twins were his favorite. Randy was a proud Papa who enjoyed watching his grandsons play hockey, baseball, and lacrosse often on video while in Florida. Celebrating the birth of granddaughter Janie in February was one of his greatest joys. In honor of MR RK, please be on time for the funeral and wear a colorful golf shirt. He will be greatly missed. Funeral services will be on Tuesday, August 27, 11 am, at Adath Jeshurun Congregation, 10500 Hillside Lane West, Mtka. Watch via live stream https://www.adathjeshurun.org/livestream.html .
