Chris Randal “Randy” Vincent of Nashville passed away on Friday, October 17, 2025 at Southern Tennessee Regional Pulaski. He was born in Athens, TN on October 1, 1961, and was 64 years old. Randy loved the outdoors and enjoyed sharing that love with his wife, Lisa, of 32 years. He loved to go hunting, especially bow hunting with Jim and Steve. Another hobby he enjoyed was metal detecting to see what all he could find. Randy was very mechanical and could figure out and run any piece of equipment. He loved learning new things and would often go to great lengths to understand it to the fullest. Randy was a devoted Christian who was very generous with his time and money and loved helping people in any way he could. His modeling of generosity encouraged his wife to be more generous. Randy had a love for animals especially his cats and he had a unique way of training them. He contributed to the farm by installing water tanks and anything else that required heavy equipment. Though Randy loved all the hands-on “dirt” work he did with equipment and construction, he was one who was very meticulous about his appearance. Randy was well respected among the contractors of Nashville and Hendersonville.
