Randy was so funny. I never heard him say a mean thing about anyone and he was always so quick to lend a helping hand. I hope he´s resting easy.

I met Randy years ago while walking my dog. We struck up a conversation and he told me he trimmed trees. I asked him to come by and look at my trees. He did and we became close friends despite the difference in our age. He was always kind and thoughtful and helped me out whenever he could. I loved him as a dear friend and miss him very much.

To Randy's family: Stunned to hear of Randy's death. I had tried to keep in touch with him over the years. He attended our church in Las Cruces while at nmsu. He, I, and another friend went camping in Glenwood one time, a great time. He, with a friend, attended my wedding in Radium Springs in 2000. My condolences to his family. Lloyd Lindbeck

Dear Apostalon Family,
I knew Randy a while back and even though it's been years since I have spoken with him, it makes me sad to hear of this tragedy. I always look upon our first meeting with fond memories. It was very cute and sweet. He always spoke about his family. That was something I knew was important to him. Your hurt and pain is immense. I pray the Lord to comfort you all and although it's a small consolation compared to what has been taken from you, I pray that justice is served. My deepest condolences.

I meet you through my sister. At the time you were mixing essential oils, you gave me a bottle of cantaloupe. It was a great scent.I you wish peace in Gods kingdom. I pray your family can remember everything good and pray for comfort with Gods grace.I pray for this world that sees to much darkness.
