Not sure what to say?

We were neighbors when we were kids my sister was friends with Randy my brother was friends with Ralph and Roy. I bought a 1967 Ossa motorcycle from Randy. I still have it today. He took me on as a little brother and we played in his quarter acre lot. I spoke with his mother several times after they all moved out because I still live in the neighborhood. So sorry to hear about Randy.And Mrs.Hammond

I remember bringing Randy on to our team. Truthfully, he brought himself on to our team with his background and enthusiasm. Being fellow USAF vets we had to joke just a bit about his USAF job. Avionics troops affectionately called his specialty "Dirt Radio." I can't imagine the sense of loss the family is feeling. Ronald Reagan once said about Marines, "Some people wonder all their lives if they've made a difference. The Marines don't have that problem." I'd like to borrow that quote and...

I express my sympathy to Cindy, Tom and Jessica. I have many good memories of Randy while on the Byron Center Fire Dept. and at South Kent Sportmans Club. Also thank you Randy for your military service.

I was fortunate to know Randy and travel to China a number of times with him. He always watched out for us when we were there and made me feel safe and part of a team. I am so sorry to his family and friends for their loss. He was a very special person with a big heart!

I'm certain my feelings pale compared to many others, yet still, while this news brings me sadness it also brings great joy in the memories I have of Randy. I was the lucky one who for several years sat across the aisle from Randy. I will never forget the fantastic, truly meaningful and educational discussions we would have. I loved both his passion for aviation and his willingness to share with other. Randy is admired by many, and we are the truly lucky ones to have known him. May he rest in...

Randy was a great person. Always willing to lend a hand and offer advice at work. The countless hours of free time he put in made a tremendous impact on younger engineers at GE. He will be missed. Sorry for your loss

Love you Randy! Thanks for all your help with the SKSC Youth Trap Team!!! Will miss you greatly! Sympathy to Cindy, Tom and Jessica. Thank you for sharing Randy with us.

Please accept my sincere condolences. Words are never going to be enough to replace the void that Randy leaves. I´m going to remember Randy as the guy that welcomed me to my new team in Michigan 11 years ago. I´ll remember Randy for the many kind words of support he had for me, shooting with my son, felling my tree. I´ll remember Randy for our quirky arguments. I´ll remember him as a friend, R.I.P Randy.
