One of the first people my wife and I met when we moved to the lake. Friendly, gregarious, and very generous with his time and advice. Condolences to his loved ones. May perpetual light sine upon him.

Randy the Realtor-you will be dearly missed!
I had the pleasure of working with Randy when he was with Four Seasons Realty in Lake Ozark, and let me tell you, there was never a dull moment when he was around. He was the king of short-sleeve Tommy Bahama shirts, a true jokester, and while computers may not have been his thing, he absolutely knew his real estate.
One of my favorite Randy moments was at a Christmas party-his outfit wasn´t just festive, it was legendary. He had custom pockets on the inside loaded with 1oz bottles-basically a bartender on the go! We laughed so much that night, and that´s just who Randy was-someone who made every moment fun.
The last time I saw him, we were chatting about me needing a new car, and without missing a beat, he sent me straight to his son Chase at Loyd Belt. That´s just the kind of guy he was-always looking out for others, always ready with a joke, and always making life a little more enjoyable.
Randy, you were one of a kind, and you will be missed more than words can say. My thoughts and prayers are with his family-I hope they find comfort in all the wonderful memories he left behind.
