Our prayers go out to the family.. Randy was a fun loving guy. Played many softball games with my husband. I have good memories of your wedding and all the laughs we had on our boat trip with many friends.
Rest in peace our dear friend.

We were so very sorry to hear of Randy's sudden passing. We have fond memories of him as a great next door neighbor. Right before you moved, Randy took the time to unclog our kitchen sink drain. I´m sure he was very busy, and we appreciated his kindness. He was quite a character, outspoken and entertaining! No doubt, Randy will be missed by many. We will be thinking of you, Debbie, and your family and keeping you in our prayers.
