LIMERICK & Saugus- Our beloved partner, brother, uncle, cousin and dear friend, Randy S. Krivitsky died peacefully on August 7, 2025 at his summer home in Limerick, Maine. With his adoring life- partner, Margo, at his side, Randy spent his last days surrounded by family and friends who shared laughs and memories of a life well-lived. His generosity continues in death as he chose to gift his body to Harvard Medical School, furthering science, and education. A fourth-generation iron worker, for most of his career he worked in his family’s business — Boston Iron Works in Chelsea, MA. An avid outdoorsman, he loved everything from the beach to the mountaintops; he enjoyed mountain and rock climbing, waterskiing, hiking, tossing, boating, lakes, rivers, streams, and oceans. Randy was a die-hard Boston sports fan, car enthusiast and a generous, talented craftsman who helped friends, family, neighbors and clients with everything from simple fixes to the toughest of projects. He built many fishing boats with his brother Matt Finn at Marblehead Builders. He built and skippered a number of winning ‘boats’ for Swampscott Rotary’s Duct Tape Regatta. He never saw a to do list he couldn’t tackle. Randy will be sorely missed by his many friends, family members and wonderful neighbors on Leo Road. He loved animals, was every dog’s best friend and a long-time volunteer for animal rescue organizations. Randy was knowledgeable about such a variety of subjects - he was truly a Renaissance man.
Born in Boston and raised in Marblehead, Randy graduated from Marblehead Public Schools and attended Northeastern University before joining his father and grandfather at B.I.W. Randy was the son of the late Arthur and Evelyn (Dreben) Krivitsky, he leaves his loving life-companion Margo Hansen, his dedicated brothers Alan Krivitsky of Saugus and Matt Finn of Marblehead; BK; his niece Sydney Krivitsky, and nephews Kyle and Jack Krivitsky, his favorite girl, Laura King of Denton TX and several cousins. He was predeceased by his beloved niece Elissa Krivitsky. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in his memory to World Central Kitchen or the Pan Mass Challenge. In keeping with his wishes, there will be no services, we encourage you to celebrate his life in your own time and in your own way.
