Nicholas Alan “Nick” Randazzo, 24, of Lancaster, passed away unexpectedly on Monday, September 4, 2023. Born in Lancaster, he is the son of Christopher and Sharon (Jacobson) Randazzo.

Nick was a 2018 graduate of The Janus School and also attended Campbell University and Penn College.

Nick also enjoyed golfing, spending time with his friends and family, and helping anyone in need. His smile was infectious and could light up a room. He never met a stranger and could talk to anyone. He will be truly missed by all who got to know him.

In addition to his parents, Nick is survived by his brother Nate Randazzo (fiancé Isabella Meyer), maternal grandfather Bernard Jacobson, paternal grandparents Ralph and Angela Randazzo, goldendoodle Strudel, and K-9 niece Bialy. He was preceded in death by his maternal grandmother Ethel Jacobson.

Chris and family,
I’m heartbroken to come across this online post. I only met Nick once or twice when Chris was at my home working on my computer. Nick was such a clever and inquisitive young man. Smart, clever, happy and a joy to be around! Please know that your entire family is in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Randazzo family, my heart hurts for everyone of you. 14 years ago you all were brought into my life. Over those years I’ve watch Nick grow from a small sweet little boy and seen him grow into a strong, handsome, kind and loving man. He always made me laugh. I loved his stories and I loved and will miss his hugs. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Sincerely Kelly Lehew (your friend and hairstylist)
