Dear Kathy, Receive a cordial greeting from Viña del Mar. Your visit in 2011 is always in our minds and memories, what we learned from Randy and you have been of great help in the professional updating of many Navy Officers. I appreciate the opportunity to meet you and maintain professional and personal contact. A strong and tight virtual hug from the Southern Cone. Greetings and take care of yourselves. Atte.

Dear Kathy, I am so sorry to hear of Randy´s passing. He was a brilliant and generous person; he contributed so much to the Intelligence Community (his work on SAT was outstanding). Randy made a difference and will be greatly missed. With deepest sympathy, Ann

Kathy I was surprised and saddened to hear of Randy's passing. I have known Randy now for many years, but only through work. Randy was so thoughtful, calm and wise in his work and engagement with others that he instilled an enduring confidence in me for him as a professional and friend as we overcame mutual challenges. I am certain those traits were evident in Randy in his role as a husband, father, friend and pillar of his personal and professional family. Please accept my sincerest...

Dear Kathy, So many memories of great hashing (GFHHH) with Randy, especially at your historic home. He will be sorely missed. ON-ON Randy!

Kathy, I´m ´Little Bo Peep´, the Scotts´ former au pair who hosted the most disastrous hash house harrier run ever! Do you remember?! 36 years ago.... Randy saved the run from utter chaos! I still dine out on that story, as do the Marilyn & Mike. I was sorry to hear he´d passed and wish you well.

Dear Kathy, I was deeply sorry to hear of Randy´s passing. I will remember him through our many contacts over the years as a trusted, gifted, and caring colleague and collaborator. He was dedicated to our craft and to the people engaged in it. I will always be grateful for the experiences I had as a member of the Pherson team. My condolences to you and your family.
