Our most sincere condolences to Randy's family. And thanks to all who made the event at the park possible to celebrate Randy's life. We're glad we attended. Knowing Randy for the last 25-30 years and sharing stories back and forth created a bond we'll never forget.....on a business level and on a personal level. LJ, I hope you know and always remember how proud your father was of you.....You are his pride and joy. It was always nice to see you when you accompanied....and later chauffeured your dad to our appointments. Randy, now you're on the endless Harley Highway......your rear view mirror is filled with all the great people and the legacy you left behind. Your Gremlin Bell will keep you safe as you ride through your next journey, Ghost Rider.

Randy was the best tax man I knew. I'm in school to become a CPA and was hoping to intern for him. I'm sad that he'll no longer be my tax man. Rest in peace. You will be missed.
