He was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle, friend, and a devout Christian. He had a love for motorcycles and cars, and he enjoyed building and fixing anything. Teaching others was a passion of his, and most importantly, he had a deep and unwavering love for his wife, children, and grandchildren.

For the last two years of his life, Randy lived with leukemia and a progressing spinal disease, scoliosis. He faced these challenges with remarkable grace, bravery, and strength. Each day, he maintained his faith in the Lord and a determination not to let his illness prevent him from enjoying life. He fought the good fight until he was called home by the Lord.
