We were so sorry to hear about Randy. He was a friend and co-worker of mine for seven years. We hardly ever agreed on anything to do with sports especially football ( he was a Cowboys fan and I'm a Redskins fan), but it was all in fun. He knew his NASCAR and if you had a question, he usually had the answer. Nothing was more important to Randy than his family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all at this sad time.

Cousin you will be missed, you and I may not have been as close as we could have been but I know you always held a special place in the hearts of my momma and daddy and I hope you are with them telling jokes and having fun, wherever you are they have a wonderful man who will be missed terribly here. Shannon take comfort in knowing how much your Dad loved you and how you were the most important thing in his life...my love to you and your mom and hope that you will continue to be a part of my life.

Heartfelt prayers are with you and the family over the passing of your beloved husband, father, and friend, Morris.

Remain close to our heavenly Father and He will see you through this saddness, Barbara.

The loss of your beloved will be grievous and painful for a time, perhaps for a long time, dear family. Yet, in the end, it may yield a clearer view of the hope ahead, the hope of serving God free of painful experienes. For God will soon bring an end to all things causes mankind grief.

Then,in the peaceful new world of God's making, those who are now asleep in death will open their eyes to a peaceful surrounding.

May our heavenly Father comfort and strengthen you and yours, Barbara, in your time of sorrow.

Christtian Love,

We had some good times cheering the girls on together in softball. Randy was a great example of what being a loving, supportive father was all about. I have always had a lot of admiration and respect for him...and I'll miss him. But God...you gained a good one for Heaven's team! Barbara and Shannon...my love to you both and I'm a phone call away if you need me.
