I am so sorry for your loss. I was watching bones and I saw the sad news about Randy`s passing. I went onto Facebook and I was able to see the beautiful memorial page that you´ve put together. What a beautiful way to keep his memory alive. Having recently lost my father a couple months ago and my mother several years ago I do understand the loss of a loved one. I hope that time has brought some measure of healing for Randy`s family and friends.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I read something somewhere after my mom passed that brought me some sense of comfort, hopefully I can remember it correctly. We will never be the same after losing someone we love, nor would we want to be. Our heart will forever be changed. Just as a lizard might grow back a lost tail, it's not the same, identical. We may feel like our heart will never grow back or heal. It does, slowly and never the same. That's ok. We don't want it to be the same. Someone you loved, someone who had a profound effects on your life deserves to be mourned and to change you forever. Hopefully you can remember all the times he made you laugh. I keep a book by the side of my bed. I write quotes that touch my heart. I also include stories that I remember or that others tell me because I never want to forget them. May your family be blessed with live, and happiness and memories until you see each other again. Mugh love.

I just watched the "Bones" episode in which your son, Randy was remembered. I am so sorry for the grief all of you are going thru. I lost my husband of 32 years, to pancreatic cancer four years ago so I know the horrible grief you are experiencing. There are no words of comfort to give you because there is an emptiness in your heart that cannot be filled. You will never get over the loss of Randy but, you will learn to live with it over time. I pray that you will feel the arms of God wrapped around you and please, try to concentrate on the happy memories instead of what is now missing. My condolences to all of you.

On 3/7/17 it was a month since I lost my mother. When I watched "Bones" and saw the In Memory of Randy it reminded me of my pain. She passed after an 11 year struggle with Alzheimers. Randy was taken due to a tragic accident. The loss of a family member, loved one, or friend the pain remains the same. I pray that Randy is at peace in heaven. God bless his family, his son, and all his friends. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.

March 9, 2017

So sorry for your loss. I saw the dedication to Randy after watching the episode of Bones from 03/07/17. Life is so precious and when someone so young loses their life, especially in such a tragic way, it really makes you appreciate those that are in your life. I am not able to fathom the depth of your pain at this time, however, as a mother of a son just 5 years older than Randy, I can empathize with his family for I would be devastated to lose my son. Prayers for peace and healing of your souls through the strength and mercy of our Lord. R.I.P Randy, may your soul be with our loving God.

Carmelina Ramundo
