Randy is my cousin. His dad and my dad, Wilburn Johnson, were brothers. When we lived in Toledo, before moving to Wisconsin, we would visit my uncle Bill (that’s what my dad called him but everybody else called him Willie) and aunt Arlene often. By that time, Randy was pretty much out on his own but would still see him sometimes. I remember that he rode a motorcycle and had a bad wound in his leg from an accident. Rest in Peace, my cousin, and enjoy your reunion with your loved ones who went before you.

Randy was the most amazing person you’d ever meet in the world. The way he loved his wife and kids was the most incredible thing to see the 16 + years I known him. Praying for the family as no one should lose both their parents so soon! As much as this is painful there is some comfort knowing he is with his beautiful & loving wife again.
