It is so very sad that people come into our lives and then leave. It is beyond sad, when you lose touch with those people and then find out they are no longer on this earth.

Randy was such a special person, a wonderful son, brother, father and so much to so many. I'm sure he is missed more than words can say by all of those who knew and loved him. Randy touched my heart once upon a time, I am so very sorry to hear of his passing.

My condolences to all of those who loved him and especially to his lovely mother Janet who I know lived for her children.

I don't know what to say, Randy was more than a friend or coworker, He'd call me and say I'll only keep you a minute, and we'd talk for an hour or more. It never got old. I'll miss you Buddy.

Randy was so beloved and had such a tender spirit. Was always very caring....I always called him,."the Silver Fox" as his hair was turning white! He loved and respected his Uncle Jim; and our daughter, Andrea. She loved her cousin Randy too. When Jim died, Randy was the first one to call to console me through his tears, encouraged me to remember all the happiness we had shared...he truly cared. Randy we all love you and will miss you so much! May you rest in peace with your Father and dear Brother, Terry whom we loved as well...Love, Aunt Sandy, Andrea and Dan.
