He loved Nascar, gardening, cooking, and spending time at his deer camp. He also enjoyed spending time at Mardi Gras in Houma, LA. When Randy met you, he always gave you a nickname, and that’s what you were always known by. His greatest joy was ribbing his sister, “B-Dog,” when the Saints and LSU lost.

The family would like to give a special thank you to the staff of St. Francis Medical Center MICU and also to his nurse, Lilly, who will forever hold a special place in our hearts. 

The passing of my dad left a void in my life that’s impossible to fill, but his memory is a constant source of light and guidance even during this time that I am being tested. I should have written a heartfelt letter to a father; however, the most I can do is pray that my message reaches him in heaven. God knows how much I miss him and how much I dream that I could hug him one more time. ~ “Wayne”

 To know him was to love him and his heart of gold. Our hearts are aching; you’re no longer in pain. Sore high, Baby Brother ‘Rambo,’ until we meet again. While you’re gone, I will be sitting back and idling ~ “B-Dog”
