Dahl, Randy
Obituary
2024
Randy Dahl of Cat Spring, Texas passed away on Monday, January 8, 2024, at the age of 79. Randy was born in Houston, Texas to Mina and Ira Dahl.

Randy graduated from Spring Branch High School in 1962 following with a BBA Degree from Texas Lutheran College in 1966. Not only did he meet the love of his life, Shirley at college (who he married in 1967), but also developed lifelong friendships during these college years.

Randy was drafted in 1969 into the Army and stationed at MacDill Air Force Base Strike Command in Tampa Florida. He served there until his honorable discharge in 1971. Their son Stephen was born in Tampa. Again, lifelong friendships developed during those years.

Randy was in the machine shop business in Houston for 40 years. First part owner of Space City Machine and Tool then later owner of D&S Machine Shop.

Randy loved Cat Spring and has been coming here since the early 60's. He and Shirley moved from Houston to Cat Spring full-time about 25 years ago. He was a faithful member of St. John Lutheran Church in Cat Spring, serving on the council and various committees. Randy dearly loved his wife Shirley and his son Stephen. He loved the ranch, and his brangus cattle and was happiest on his tractor. Of course, a regular stop at Crossroad Tavern for a cold beer with friends and the Friday night fish fry was a must!

One last thing Randy and Shirley loved to travel! Just so many fun trips with friends and family...not to mention 19 years of fun on Lake Austin!

Randy is preceded in death by his parents, his brother Kirby Dahl, and Kirby's wife Sue.

He is survived by his wife Shirley, son Stephen (Fiancé Misty), sisters-in-law Doris Duderstadt, “Pete”, and Rose Miles, brothers-in-law Alton Martin, and Frank Volkmer, nieces and nephews Angel Croll, Brian Dahl, Debbie, Todd, Tammy, Scott, Frank Jr., Brenda, Jennifer, Cheryl, Allen, and Darrell.
