Randy was a kind and generous neighbor. We loved both to watch Randy and sons put up those wonderful Christmas decorations across the street and then to share them with our own children and grandchildren when they visited.
When our son was working on our yard, Randy was the guy who came over and offered the use of his roller, even though we were new in town, and he hardly knew us.
We will miss him very much.
