      Former Chesterton resident Randall Doyle McQuiston of Nokomis, Fla. and Valparaiso passed away Friday, Nov. 19, 2010. He was 92.
      He is survived by his two daughters, Pamel Wheatman (husband James) and Vicki Hodge (Michael); three loving grandchildren, Lance Hodge (wife Tricia), Erin Welden (Clint), and Courtney Gapinski; six great-grandchildren; and dear friends and extended family, all blessed to have known how wonderful he was.
      He was preceded in death by his father, Floyd McQuiston; his mother, Muriel Doyle McQuiston; his loving wife Delora Jane Hoffner McQuiston; and his sister, Maxine McQuiston Gebert.
