Tami, Marijayne, and John - Our deepest sympathies to you and the rest of Randy's family. It's been a couple years since I ran into Randy -- he'd always catch me up on the family and give me a good laugh. I will miss those unexpected moments of joy. The girls have fond memories hanging around with him at school and scouting events.
