On November 25, 1993, a handsome bouncing baby boy named Maurice Devon Randle was born to Ronald Woods and Deneane Randle in Tulsa, Oklahoma.  Maurice was truly the apple of his parent's eye being the first born of the five children.

Maurice brought his parents so much joy.  Maurice was an extremely happy young man whom lived every moment as if it were his last.  He enjoyed spending time with his siblings and son.  Maurice was truly the life of the party and never met a stranger.  Maurice had a smile just like his Dad that would light up a room.  His personality was one that commanded attention and respect.

Growing up, Maurice attended Tulsa Public Schools where was involved in various activities.  Football was one of the sports that Maurice found the most pleasurable.  Maurice was loved by everyone he knew.  He was a compassionate man that would give his last to anyone in need.  He had a heart of gold.  Before the Lord called Maurice home you could fine him lending a hand to people.

Maurice is preceded in death by his beloved father Ronald Woods, Jr., grandparents Virginia Ragsdale, Evalena Wilson, Wilbert Randle, and Jessie Woods, Uncles Wilbert Ragsdale, and John Kelly, one Aunt Delisha Randle, and Cousins Michael Kelley, Curtis Williams, and Markey Goff.

Maurice leaves to cherish his memories: the apple of his eye and only son Xian Tae Miller, his beautiful mother Deneane Randle, his step-father Clifton Nichols, his three loving sisters: Damieona Randle, Denisha Randle, Kendra Nichols, his brothers: Kendall Nichols, and Keshaun Barnes, his grandmother Tina Woods, his only niece Journie Randle, and a host of aunties, uncles, cousins, and other relatives.
