Randy Paragary

Still feel the loss of our midtown neighbor and friend, especially when I pass by the original Paragary´s on 28th and N. Best wishes to his family.

I´m still missing Randy, and pay homage every time I pass by or step inside a Paragary establishment. I remain full of admiration.

My name is Jerry Morano, part of a band (Supa Nova) that played at The Parapow Palace. We would come down from Chico to play in the early 70s and Randy would put us up overnight. We had some memorable times. Just wanted to acknowledge how he effected my life.

I had the opportunity to design Esquire Grill, Spataro´s and other projects for Kurt, Stacy and Randy. I will always remember Randy as a firm but fair businessman and a heck of a fun guy to hang out with. Randy´s knowledge of other successful restaurant concepts was deep and thoughtful. That preparation greatly improved our ability develop new PRG restaurant concepts with Randy & Stacy. They made a point of visiting competitors not only in San Francisco and Los Angeles but New York, Chicago,...

Can´t believe he´s gone. He was so full of life. I will definitely miss him.

Sam Paragary was the brother of Lucille, my fathers' mother. Which made my father Robert and Sam cousins even though being roughly the same age. This made Randy and Bruce my cousins. I just today learned of the passing of my cousin Randy and am very sad to hear this news. I met Randy and Bruce when I was around 10 when Sam was the manager of the Pinecrest Lodge. Great times and great memories. My heart goes out to his family and friends. When next time at a Paragary bar, we'll...

Cheri and I truly enjoyed your company when visiting some of your restaurants. We especially appreciated your attendance at our wedding on 7/7/1979. You always stopped by to say hello and welcome to Paragary's on so many occasions. Gonna miss you Randy. May our lord take good care of you in heaven as he did on earth. Love and passion, Bob and Cheri.

I offer heartfelt sympathy to Randy's family. Randy's presence and influence as our midtown business neighbor will always be appreciated and felt every time we admire the new hotel sitting on property we once owned.

stacy, our lives are richer & better for having randy in them, his departure left a huge hole in the community & the hearts of many, knowing him warmed the hearts of countless people. i loved every minute i was honored to be in his presence, he always had a positive influence on me; he treated everyone as if they were his best friend. my heart is broken for most especially - you, & his family & friends. sincere condolences to the paragary family & the entire community.
