New Middletown - Randy Ian Wiscott, 53, passed away Sunday, May 16, 2021 peacefully at his home.  He was surrounded by his loving family who admired his strength and courage during his two-year battle with cancer.

Randy was born January 23, 1968 in Youngstown, OH, a son of Peter Anthony Wiscott and Caroline (Keenan) Wiscott.

Randy was a graduate of Struthers High School class of 1986 and he attended the Columbus College of Art and Design.  He worked at Astro Shapes, Inc. in Struthers as a paint line supervisor for over 30 years.

Randy was very artistic and loved all types of music.  He was most inspired by the "Rock music of the 80's" which led to teaching himself how to play the guitar.  He wrote and recorded numerous songs and was a key member of two local rock bands in the 90's and early 2000's.  He was best known as "Randall J" to all of his close friends and fans.  Randy was also an avid collector.  He was very proud of his extensive collections of pins and shot glasses from Hard Rock Cafe`  locations all over the world.

He was a lifetime Dallas Cowboys and New York Yankees fan.  He and his wife, Sandy, loved bowling and bowled in a mixed league at Holiday Bowl for many years.  Randy also enjoyed spending time outdoors, going on camping trips to the mountains, and relaxing by the fire with his family.

Wiscott of Struthers, Hailey M. Wiscott, Kacie L. Wiscott, Addison J. Wiscott, and Sophia M. Wiscott, all of New Middletown; a brother, Richard (Michael Yelic) Wiscott of Denver, CO; two sisters, Laurie (Jon) Gerdy of Bristol, OH, and Tricia (Frank) Gentile of Palm Bay, FL; his in-laws, Gerald E. and Ursula Heathcock of Youngstown; sisters-in-law, Christina Heathcock of Aliso Viejo, CA, and Jamie (Darrell) Baskin of Howland, OH; brother-in-law, Gerald Heathcock, Jr. of Cleveland, OH; grandmother, Jean Keenan of High Wycombe, England; an uncle, Robert (Kitty) Wiscott of Mineral Ridge; along with many nieces, nephews and cousins.
