With profound sadness, the community of Clay, New York mourns the untimely loss of Rendolph Larose, who tragically passed away on Friday, July 11, 2025, at the age of 42, following a fatal industrial accident at a commercial construction site.
Rendolph was performing his duties as part of a ground crew when he was struck and run over by a dump truck during routine operations. Despite the swift response of emergency personnel, he succumbed to his injuries at the scene. The Onondaga County Sheriff’s Office confirmed the incident, and a full investigation is now underway by OSHA to determine the exact circumstances and assess safety protocols on site.
Known for his steady presence, strong work ethic, and unshakable dedication, Rendolph was more than a reliable coworker—he was a friend, a mentor, and someone who could be counted on for a helping hand. His passing leaves behind a deep void in the hearts of those who knew him, especially his devoted wife and their two young children, who are now grappling with an unimaginable loss.
Rendolph’s colleagues and friends speak of a man who led by example, who brought calm to high-pressure situations, and whose compassion extended far beyond the job site. He was the type of person who showed up—not just to work, but for people. His loss is not only felt by his family, but by an entire community that respected and admired him.
A memorial is currently being organized by his employer, along with local community members, to honor Rendolph’s life and legacy. Grief counseling and support services are being made available to coworkers and others affected by this tragedy.
As the investigation continues, questions may remain, but one thing is clear: Rendolph Larose’s life mattered. His love for his family, his pride in his work, and the many lives he touched will never be forgotten.
Our hearts go out to his family, friends, and all those mourning this devastating loss.
May he rest in peace.
