Kristin Marie Radandt, of Two Rivers, WI, died peacefully on February 2, 2021 at Hamilton Healthcare, Two Rivers, WI.
Kristin was born on January 11, 1950, the only child of the late Fredrick and Adleyn Kaiser (who adored and doted over her every move). She is a 1968 graduate of Wauwatosa East High School.
Kristin was a naive and innocent adolescent. She then met the love of her life, Robert Radandt. He brought joy and adventure to her existence. He was her Bobby. They joined in marriage on February 23, 1974 in Manitowoc, WI. Soon after they began their family.
Raising her children was Kris’s life passion. She would move mountains to make certain her kids were taken care of in every way possible. Her children often teased her about all the laundry and grocery shopping she did. She would follow those comments by bantering back, Oh, shut up, you! Everyone that knew Kris, knew being a mom was the most honorable and fulfilling achievement of her life. When she became a grandma, she was over-the-moon. She adored each and every one of their unique personalities. The kids loved exploring grandmas house and woods. They quickly learned where the candy drawer was and visited it habitually. She excused their overindulging often and overrode their parents because she was The Grandma. Besides the adoration she had for her family, Kris had a love of romance novels. She could finish a book in a couple of days with her enthusiasm to read. Moreover, from spring to fall, she could be found in her yard gardening. She thrived to seek unique and ornate foliage, making everything just right.
Survivors include her children: Joshua (Jennifer) Radandt, Two Rivers, WI; Megan (Eric) Erickson, Fredonia, WI, Preston Radandt, Appleton, WI; one like a daughter: Krista Radandt (Jason Rezash), Two Rivers, WI; six grandchildren: Austin Radandt, Reis and Rylee Erickson, Brice, Evan and Ilah Radandt; two special cousins who were like sisters: Lynn (Gary) Dufek, Cato, WI, Jacque (Kenneth) Meneau, Two Rivers, WI; and five grand-fur babies (she grew to love). She was preceded in death by her parents; mother-in-law and father-in-law: George and Marcella Radandt; her husband; and one granddaughter: McKenzie Radandt.

The family would be remiss if we failed to thank Caring Hearts Home Care, Barbara McCredie, and her wonderful staff, for allowing our mother to stay in the home she and our dad built together. The family would further like to extend our deepest gratitude to Cindy Williams, Dr. Janna Kroiss, and Ellie Mercado-Schoessow. We know mom was stubborn. Each of you was so patient with her and made her feel comfortable. Hamilton Healthcare staff was equally amazing during her brief stay with you. She would always say how nice all the little girls were.
