He received his formal education in the Talladega County School System and was a member of the 1988 graduating class of Winterboro High School.

He had a passion for cooking and at the time of his passing he was a chef in Fall River, Massachusetts. Not only did Randy have a passion for cooking, but he also enjoyed being a carpenter and mechanic which is why he was called a jack of all trades when it came to helping others.
