Howard "Randall" George, 64, of Forest, MS, passed away on October 5, 2023, in Meridian. Randall was born and raised in Meridian and attended Meridian High School and Meridian Community College. At the beginning of his career, he worked for the City of Meridian for nine years in the Engineering Department. He then worked for the City of Jackson for two years with the Streets, Bridges and Drainage Division. Later, he became the Public Works Director in Forest, MS in 1993 where he served for 30 years. Randall was a jack of all trades. He enjoyed doing all kinds of renovation projects, spending time with family, taking an occasional trip to the mountains and always looked forward to crawfish season, which was the highlight of his year. He was a loving son, brother, uncle, and friend, but one of his favorite roles was being "Hoot" to his two grandchildren, Mac and Hensley Calhoun. He took pride in caring for others and will be deeply missed. Randall is survived by his family and friends: Glen (Geraldine) George, Michael (Sharon) George, Linda George, Sandra Dennis, and Abby (Drew) Calhoun, as well as three nephews, one niece, and numerous great nieces and nephews.
