I initially knew Randy as my tax accountant but over many years came to know him as a very good friend! He kept me on doing my taxes even after he semi retired. I had a great respect for him as a fine professional and a trusted friend. I was shocked to learn we lost him last year. I regret having never met other members of his family but pass along to them my compliments for what a good and capable gentleman he was.
I still miss him.
