Randy Michael Stapleton

Growing up two doors down from the Stapletons was one of the luckiest things that´s ever happened to me. I´ve known Mr Randy my entire life and can hear him now saying "Hello Cleenie" or "Hello Miss Mouse!" (Based on that nickname I was obviously a shy and quiet little kid, but around the Stapletons I always felt at ease). Over the years less time was spent at home, but on visits I would often see Mr. Randy walking the dog up the street or pulling into the driveway and stop for a quick hello (usually with him reminding me that I should visit home more often!)

I have fond memories of watching Napoleon Dynamite, sharing a cup of tea, and in more recent years attending Christmas Eve midnight mass in Havre de Grace with Mr. Randy and my brother (you know he´s a fun guy to hang out with when going to church at midnight sounds appealing!).

I wish Mr Randy had even more time to make memories with his family and friends... he is already so very missed

This man was such an important of my daily life for almost 20 yrs. He was my boss and one of my best friends. He helped me thru quite a few of life´s tribulations and usually finished everything with a joke or laughs - usually have you laughing at yourself He cared for each and everyone of his employees. I´ve lost touch since COVID and hindsight wish that never happened. Rest easy

One of the best things about living on Courtney Lane was sharing life with "Mr" Randy for over 35 years. Alway positive, upbeat, willing to help, genuine, kind, interested in the lives of all the kids who grew up in the neighborhood ... and of course the most enthusiastic house decorator at every holiday!! Thank you for adding so much to our lives Randy, you´ll be missed in so many ways.

We miss you, Papa.
