Randy Hoy

Randy Hoy, age 69, passed away on January 27, 2026, in Mesa, Arizona. He was born in Spokane, Washington, on July 8, 1956, to George and Victoria Hoy. Randy lived a very happy and active life filled with family, friends, and many passions, including singing, playing guitar, riding his Harley, and dedicating 51 years of service to Mesa Public Schools. Earlier in his life, he worked as a miner in the copper mines of Superior, Arizona. A job he truly loved and often shared stories about. He also had a deep love for racing and proudly served as the lead sprint car mechanic for his close friend Rick Setser, occasionally racing himself in the No. 1 and No. 51 cars. Together, they won multiple championships at Manzanita Raceway

He took great joy in his six children: Jillane (Jarrett) Yerse, Roger Hoy, Drew (Amanda) Porter, Ryanne Porter, Danica Hoy (Jason Elder), and Leland Hoy, and was immensely proud of his four grandchildren. Randy will be deeply missed, but his love, lessons, and music will live on in the hearts of all who were blessed to know him.
